In this paper, a new procedure is proposed to study the deformation errors for spiral milling process of blade, which can be simplified as a stepwise beam based on the geometry and clamping characteristics. Kirchhoff beam theory is adopted to analyze the bending and torsion deformation. The relationship between machining deformation errors and the workpiece’s geometric dimension are also established based on the simplified model. Corresponding algorithms are realized by MATLAB codes. Experiment test shows that the results predicted by the proposed model are in well agreement with measured ones.

In this paper, a new experiment procedure is proposed to study the influence of cutter parameters and clamping methods on the stability of the milling process of thin-walled blade. A dedicated fixture is designed to carry out the experiment. Simulation results show that the new clamping system can enhance the rigidity of thin-walled blade to reduce cutting deformation and chatter vibration phenomenon. Then, cutter and cutting parameters can be optimized properly to make the system obtain high rigidity and high performance stable milling process. Industrial application indicates that the new system can improve the cutting performance and ensure the cutting quality.

Holistic thin-walled parts are common structural parts of modern aircraft to reduce the weight and increase the stiffness. Over 90% of the materials are removed from the blank, as a result, large machining deformations occur to the parts, which causes the manufacturing discrepancies and even the scrap parts. In this paper, numerical simulation models are established to predict the machining deformation of two typical aviation thin-walled parts. The blank initial and machining induced residual stresses, as well as the cutting parameters, are considered in the model. The deformations and stresses after machining are calculated using the proposed model, and the deformation and stress distributions are analyzed.

AbstractTo analysis the failure and energy absorption of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) thin-walled square tube, the quasi-static axial compression loading tests are conducted for [±45]3s square tube, and the square tube after test is scanned to further investigate the failure mechanism. Three different finite element models, i.e. single-layer shell model, multi-layer shell model and stacked shell mode, are developed by using the Puck 2000 matrix failure criterion and Yamada Sun fiber failure criterion, and three models are verified and compared according to the experimental energy absorption metrics. The experimental and simulation results show that the failure mode of [±45]3s square tube is the local buckling failure mode, and the energy are absorbed mainly by intralaminar and interlaminar delamination, fiber elastic deformation, fiber debonding and fracture, matrix deformation cracking and longitudinal crack propagation. Three different finite element models can reproduce the collapse behaviours of [±45]3s square tube to some extent, but the stacked shell model can better reproduce the failure mode, and the difference of specific energy absorption (SEA) is minimum, which shows the numerical simulation results are in better agreement with the test results.

AbstractOne of the most dominant manufacturing methods in the production of electromechanical devices from sheet metal is punching. In punching, the material undergoes plastic deformation and finally fracture. Punching of an electrical steel sheet causes plastic deformation on the edges of the part, which affects the magnetic properties of the material, i.e., increases iron losses in the material, which in turn has a negative effect on the performance of the electromagnetic devices in the final product. Therefore, punching-induced iron losses decrease the energy efficiency of the device. FEM simulations of punching have shown significantly increased plastic deformation on the workpiece edges with increasing tool wear. In order to identify the critical tool wear, after which the iron losses have increased beyond acceptable limits, the simulation results must be verified with experimental methods. The acceptable limits are pushed further in the standards by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The new standard (IEC TS 60034-30-2:2016) has much stricter limits regarding the energy efficiency of electromechanical machines, with an IE5 class efficiency that exceeds the previous IE4 class (IEC 60034-30-1:2014) requirements by 30%. The simulations are done using Scientific Forming Technologies Corporation Deform, a finite element software for material processing simulations. The electrical steel used is M400-50A, and the tool material is Vanadis 23, a powder-based high-speed steel. Vanadis 23 is a high alloyed powder metallurgical high-speed steel with a high abrasive wear resistance and a high compressive strength. It is suitable for cold work processing like punching. In the existing literature, FEM simulations and experimental methods have been incorporated for investigating the edge deformation properties of sheared surfaces, but there is a research gap in verifying the simulation results with the experimental methods. In this paper, FEM simulation of the punching process is verified using an electrical steel sheet from real production environment and measuring the deformation of the edges using microhardness measurements. The simulations show high plastic deformation 50 μm into the workpiece edge, a result that is shown to be in good agreement with the experimental results.

Silicon wafers are the most widely used substrates for fabricating integrated circuits. A sequence of processes is needed to turn a silicon ingot into silicon wafers. One of the processes is flattening by lapping or by grinding to achieve a high degree of flatness and parallelism of the wafer [1, 2, 3]. Lapping can effectively remove or reduce the waviness induced by preceding operations [2, 4]. The main aim of this paper is to compare the simulation results with lapping experimental data obtained from the Polish producer of silicon wafers, the company Cemat Silicon from Warsaw (www.cematsil.com). Proposed model is going to be implemented by this company for the tool wear prediction. Proposed model can be applied for lapping or grinding with single or double-disc lapping kinematics [5, 6, 7]. Geometrical and kinematical relations with the simulations are presented in the work. Generated results for given workpiece diameter and for different kinematical parameters are studied using models programmed in the Matlab environment.

Large aerospace thin-walled structures will produce deformation and vibration in the machining process, which will cause machining error. In this paper, a cutting experimental method based on multi-layer machining is proposed to analyze the influence of cutting tool, cutting path, and cutting parameters on machining error in order to obtain the optimal cutting variables. Firstly, aiming at the situation that the inner surface of the workpiece deviates from the design basis, the laser scanning method is used to obtain the actual shape of the inner surface, and the method of feature alignment is designed to realize the unification of the measurement coordinate system and machining coordinate system. Secondly, a series of cutting experiments are used to obtain the machining errors of wall thickness under different cutting tools, cutting paths, and cutting parameters, and the variation of machining errors is analyzed. Thirdly, a machining error prediction model is established to realize the prediction of machining error, and the multi-objective optimization method is used to optimize the cutting parameters. Finally, a machining test was carried out to validate the proposed cutting experimental method and the optimal cutting parameters.

The numerical simulation of shelled Comp.B explosive was studied following the Lee-Tarver ignition and growth model when it was impacted respectively by 4340 Steel, OFHC and 93#W projectile with the same mass; the influences on explosive detonation of the initiation process, the material of projectile and the L/D ratio of projectile were analyzed; the critical initiation speeds of the projectiles of three different materials with different L/D ratio were gained. In order to verify the simulation results, the questions were calculated by the theoretical simplified model, the results of the theoretical calculation and the numerical simulation accorded well based on critical energy criterion. The results show that the capability of igniting explosive, the first is 93#W, the second is OFHC, the last is 4340 Steel; The initiation point were not on the interface of shell and explosive, and the faster of the impacting velocity, the initiation point closer the interface; the bigger of the L/D ratio of projectile, the higher of the critical initiation speed.
