Abstract

The lapping process is one of the traditional finishing processes and generally it is conducted as manual process by skilled worker. The productivity of these manual processes is lower and difficult to control. Hence, we developed an automatic lapping system for moulds and dies. The lapping system consists of simple lapping tools and conventional milling machine. Several materials were machined as mirror like surface using the system. The lapping conditions are usually decided by skilled worker's experience or knowhow. Therefore, in this study, an intelligent lapping system with the optimum conditions calculated by the lapping model was developed. Specifically, the relationship between the finished quality (surface roughness Rz and improvement rate of Rz) and each parameter of the system, Vickers hardness of work piece and lapping head, lapping pressure, grain size, is investigated. Then, an intelligent lapping system is developed. Finally, the HPM31 are machined as confirmatory experiment by developed system with calculated lapping conditions. It is concluded from the result that: (1) The relationship between the surface roughness and lapping parameter was cleared. (2) The intelligent lapping system using the lapping model was developed. (3) The estimated limit surface roughness and improvement rate by calculated condition satisfactorily agreed with the experimental results.

Abstract

Lapping is an old traditional machining process that has been useful all along in the human history. Uniform surface finishing by manual hand lapping on cylindrical inner and end surfaces are very difficult. Additionally, the geometrical form accuracy and productivity are lower. In a previous study, the new lapping method for outer cylindrical surface using the lathe with linear motor has been reported. However, this method could not be applied directly for the cylindrical inner and end surfaces. Therefore, lapping for mirror-like finish on cylindrical inner and end surfaces using the lathe with linear motor is investigated. In this study, lapping tool was modified from previous study to be suited for the cylindrical inner and end surfaces. Then, lapping methods for inner and end surfaces were developed for uniform mirror-like finish. Surface roughness and geometrical form accuracy improvement were measured for both surfaces. The optimum conditions for high productivity and high quality mirror-like surfaces were investigated. It was concluded from the results that, the developed lapping system was able to process mirror-like surface on cylindrical inner and end surfaces. Moreover, the optimum conditions for the mirror-like surfaces were revealed experimentally.

Abstract

Several machines with linear motor have been developed for high productivity. The characteristics of these machines are high speed, high acceleration and deceleration with stable behaviors of feed. Moreover, mirror-like surface is required to add high quality on the most products. In this study high speed lapping by using the lathe with linear motor was investigated for mirror-like surface. Lapping was performed after turning with the same lathe Lapping tool consists of a lapping head, a spring and holder on the tool post to assemble the linear motor lathe. The spring is used to supply lapping pressure. Lapping slurry consists of water, PEO ( Polyethylene Oxide) and diamond grain. This slurry was supplied between a work piece and lapping head. Then, high speed lapping was performed. During the process, the lapping head temporarily left from work surface in order to catch some new grains and removed some chips. The optimum combination of both the spindle speed and the feed speed was investigated for high quality and productivity experimentally. Surface roughness and form accuracy were measured. It was concluded from the results that (1) Mirror-like surface was obtained by the high speed lapping, and (2) Optimun conditions for efficient high speed lapping was revealed experimentally

Abstract

This paper presents a sensor based diagnostic system for a cylindrical plunge grinding process which ensures a reliable process state and tool wear identification. A new signal processing technique, i.e. Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) was evaluated for this purpose based on the vibration and acoustic emission signal measurements. Numerical and experimental studies have demonstrated that the process state and tool wear may be effectivel detected through a statistical analysis of the time-dependent amplitudes and instantaneous frequencies resulting from the HHT. A principal component analysis was used to diagnose different grinding process states.

Abstract

This paper presents method for the unconventional machining of the blades of steam turbines. Blade material as steel X12Cr13 was chosen into the investigation. Blade failures in gas turbine engines often lead to loss of all downstream stages and can have a dramatic effect on the availability of the turbine engines. Conventional machining of the roots of steam turbine blades causes high temperature and rapid wear of tool which makes machining expensive WEDM is currently regarded among the most popular non-conventional machining. WEDM allows treatment of hard, brittle materials and composite, irrespective of their structure (thin-wall components) and mechanical properties. Submitted work is an analysis of potential impact on the received thickness of heat affected zone by appropriate heat treatment of material prior to WEDM. Such action is intended to eliminate or reduce the initiating impact of any microcracks on the formation of surface defects on the turbine blades roots during operation. The aim of the article is to replace the traditional methods of machining the blades roots by WEDM and thus the elimination of problems such as the need to monitor the tool wear. The presented experimental study was carried out on a modern wire EDM Sodick AQ327L. Investigated were the effects of WEDM of X12Cr13 steel as the Heat Affected Zone, the micro-fractures and surface roughness parameters.

Abstract

Real time monitoring of tool condirions and machining processes has been extensively studies in tne last decades, but a wide gap is stiil present between research activities and commercial tools. One of the factors which currently limit the utilization of these systems is the low flexibility of off-the-shelf solutions: in most cases they need dedicated off-line training sessions to acquire the reference patterns and thresholds, and/or the need for several input data to be defined a priori by a human operator. Instead of exploiting off-line learning sessions and a prior defined thresholds, this paper proposes an approach for automatic modelling of a cutting process and real-time monitoring of its stability that is based only on data acquired on-line during the process itself. This approach avoids any a-priori assumption about expected signal patterns, and it is characterized by an innovative implementation of well known Statistical Process Control techniques. In particular, with regard to milling processes, the paper proposes the utilization of cross-correlation coefficient between repeating signal profiles as the feature to be monitored, and an EWMA (Exponentially Weighted Moving Average) control chart for auto-correlated data as monitoring tool.

Abstract

The choice of manufacturing processes is based on cost, time and precision. A remaining drawback of modern CNC systems is that the machining parameters, such as feed-rate, cutting speed and depth of cut, are still programmed off-line. The machining parameters are usually selected before machining accordin to programmer's experience and machining handbooks. To prevent damage and to avoid machining failure the operating conditions are usually set extremely conservative. As a result, many CNC systems are inefficient and run under the operating conditions that are far from optimal . Even if the machining parameters are optimised off-line by an optimisation algorithm they cannot be adjusted during the machining process. In this paper, a neural adaptiv controller is developed and some simulations and experiments with the neural control strategy are carried out. The results demonstrate the ability of the proposed system to effectively regulate peak forces for cutting conditions commonly encountered in end milling operations.

Abstract

There is an urgent and growing need to reduce the environmental footprints of products and manufacturing processes and to support sustainable material consumption. For engineering applications this implies the need to develop low energy/carbon footprint manufacturing processes tha utilise extended life tooling. In machining, nano-structured coatings can be used to extend service life of cutting tools. However, hard coatings pose a challenge to the re-shaping and re-use of tools. This work investigated the use and re-use of cutting tools by developing selective tool coating removal using laser and conventional chemical de-coating technology. The laser de-coated tools were re-coated and their machining performance was compared to that of chemical de-coated and re-coated tools as well as first generation coated and uncoated tools. The paper presents a comparison of the energy footprints associated with the re-use of tooling. It is concluded that high value tooling can exploit material re-use procedures.

Abstract

The improvement of product quality as well as the increase of production efficiency is inevitable in modern manufacturing processes. In this regard an increased cutting speed causes dangerous process situations in respect to operator safety and machine damage. In addition to that wood working machines generally do not use process monitoring systems, e. g. tool breakage monitoring. The aim of this project was the development of a process monitoring system to increase safety in wood working processes. Therefore, the Institute of Machine Tools and Production Technology (IWF) and the Fraunhofer-Institute of Surface Engineering and Thin Films (FhG IST) developed a sensor-integrated tool holder, which is able to detect clamping forces and unbalances during the process. The hollow shank taper 'HSK-63-F' was chosen as tool holder as it is used in the majority of applications in wood working processes. The clamping and balance conditions are measured by an embedded piezo-resistive thin film sensor at the planar contact surface. To ensure a contact-free signal transmission a telemetric system was used. The interaction between this monitoring system and the machine control automatically activates an emergency stop. Hence, a system was developed which significantly increases the process safety during the run-up and the idle speed phase of the spindle.

DESIGN AND DYNAMIC CHARACTERIZATION OF COMPOSITE MATERIAL DAMPERS FOR PARTING-OFF TOOLS

Lorenzo DAGHINI1, Andreas ARCHENTI1, Cornel Mihai NICOLESCU1
1Royal Institute of Technology, KTH Production Engineering, Stockholm, Sweden

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel design for parting-off tools and the method to characterize their performance. The principle followed in the design phase was to enhance the damping capability minimizing the loss in static stiffness through implementation of composite material interfaces. The tool has been characterized by the dynamic characteristics criterion, i.e. frequency and damping ratio, of the machining system, as well as the roughness of the machined surface criterion. This paper demonstrates a new model-based method for characterizing the machining system dynamic properties, applied, in this sThe presented mathematical model of the machining system is based on the data recorded by a microphone during operational conditions. In this way, a step beyond the classical method of analyzing the dynamics of a machining system, which separately identifies the structural and process parameters is taken. The analyses together with the experimental results proved that the parting-off tool was able to machine over a wide range of cutting parameters. It was found that the limiting factor for increasing cutting parameters is not the damping capability of the tool but the tool clamping system stiffness and the workholding system dynamic properties. This implies that, in order to further optimize the machining performance, it is vital to take consideration not only the tool-clamp-turret system but the whole machining system.

INFLUENCE OF APPLICATION OF SPECIAL CASTING COMPOUND ON DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE GUIDEWAY SYSTEM

Bartosz POWAŁKA1, Tomasz OKULIK1,
1 West Pomerania Universitet of Technology, Szczecin, Poland

Abstract

The work presents a new technology for the assembly of ball guideway systems which involves the use of a thin layer of special casting compound (EPY resin) used mainly for stable seating of machinery, especially on steel or concrete foundations. The paper presents results of simulation investigations. Simulation model was built using results of static tests. The results of simulation dynamic tests in the form of frequency response functions are shown. Experimentally supported simulation research presented in the work indicates that the use of EPY resin between the guide rail and the bed of the machine tool positively influences the dynamics of the system. The comparison of the new solution with the one used so far was performed on the basis of a guideway combination consisting of a body and a milling table. The dynamics was compared with the use of a frequency response function obtained using an impulse test. The proposed solutions are characterized by higher dynamic stiffness, which may directly influence the precision of the machined surfaces.

Abstract

Recently, the use of hard materials has increased for product quality and safety reasons. Consequently, the cutting conditions for these materials become severe resulting in shorter tool life due to higher cutting temperature. In this paper, tool technology to reduce heat generation and its influences during cutting is investigated and evaluated experimentally. The approach for reducing cutting heat generation is considered by changing the tool geometry and reducing the frictiona coefficient between tool and chip. The approach for reducing influence of the generated heat is application of a therma insulator (coating) on the tool material having high thermal conductivity and heat-resistance. The turning process is used in the experiments. The thermal influences are made clear by each experimental parameter and then, the optimum tool parameters were considered from experimental results. It is concluded that; (1) When rake angle was 15 degree, temperature rise on the tool was smallest. (2) Temperature rise on the tools coated with TiAlN or DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) were reduced from 20 % to 30 %. (3) Several tool materials were quantitatively evaluated by consideration of the thermal conductivity, as well as thermal dependency of their hardness.

Abstract

So-called Engineered Grinding Tools (EGT) have been developed in order to satisfy the industry's demand for more efficient and cost-effective grinding tools, which differ from classic grinding tools by placing and brazing single abrasive grains in a predefined pattern onto the grinding tool body. Single grain cutting simulations form an important part towards an advanced understanding of the engineered grinding process. Cutting simulations with FE Methods encounter problems arising from large deformation and material separation. These can be overcome using meshless methods. In this work, a Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) Method is used to model the single diamond grain cutting, which can be used as the basis process for physical simulation of the grinding process. As results the influence of the grain geometry, grain orientation and grain placement on the cutting forces, the burr generation and the chip removal rate are presented. It is shown that the cutting forces for a given grain geometry as well as the burr generation are heavily influenced by the orientation of the minor and the main cutting faces. Also cutting in material being work hardened by preceding grains, is simulated in order to be able to synthesize the grinding process from single grain cutting.

Abstract

The paper presents a computer system dedicated to simulation of the TIG welding process. The main functionality of the system, i.e. support and facilitation of design of welding technology, will be obtained through flexible combination of the modular architecture of the numerical library and optimization procedures. The TIG heat source model and a structure of a computer system is described. The analysis of phenomena occurring in welded material is important for a selection of optimal process parameters. This contributes to improvement of the product reliability. Particular attention is focused on the development of a reliable numerical model of TIG welding for the linear joint.

Abstract

The production of automotive rear-axle drives is a complex process. This is due to many involved process steps, factors and interdependencies between processes, materials, means of production and individuals acting in this environment. In general their effect on product variations is not fully comprehended. Hence, a holistic analytical model is only possible in parts of the production. In this paper a modular approach is presented to make the production more flexible and enable it to react faster on product variations. This is achieved by a Cognitive Production System (CPS), which is based on accumulating, storing and processing of process knowledge so that it can be applied to similar cases. Through the combination and interaction of Cognitive Tolerance Matching (CTM) and Agent-based Systems the performance of the CPS is enhanced. The work discusses the set-up of such a CPS for the production of automotive rear-axle-drives with the focus on the failure state agent.

Abstract

Recently titanium and nickel alloys have become pre-eminent for aeronautic and astronautic parts. Since these cutting and becomes severely demaged. It is important to control cutting tool temperature. In this paper,the control system of tool tip temperature using inverse analysis of neural network for machining these materials was developed and evaluated. The neural network between cutting conditions and tool temperature was firstly created by a set of teaching data. Then, a mathematical model using algebra was developed. Cutting speed was selected as parameter to be controlled in reducing tool temperature. The relationship between the optimum cutting speed and cutting time was calculated with the inverse analysis of neural network by pre-reading of NC program before cutting. The tool temperature can be maintained at the desired value. The developed system is evaluated by the expaeriments using the turning process and workpiece of Ti6Al4V. From the results, it is concluded that; (1) Tool tip temperature can be controlled by using the proposed inverse analysis of the neural network, (2) CThe cutting tool life can be maintained by this method, for cutting materials with low thermal conductivity.

Abstract

Finishing processes such as deburring are performed on a wide variety of products in various quantities by machinists on a piece-by-piece basis in order to improve surface finish. Deburring is a major contributor to time and cost of the improvement of the surface finish. During deburring, the intended quality of the surface finish is very much dependent on the operator's skills. This work is concerned with understanding and interpreting how a bilateral robot can assist the deburring process. We propose a control method based on a machining model that is made up of several components, including the cutting tool, spindle speed, feedrate of the tool and other important constituent elements of the machining system. Machining operations are carried out for selected cutting conditions. A haptic robot is directly connected to the machine-tool and the operator. The motion of the haptic robot is controlled automatically under machining conditions in which it is possible to achieve highly accurate surface finish. The force feedback from the haptic robot influences the continuous adjustments made by the machining operator. Mathematical equations for the haptic interaction between the robot and process machining, involving time delays, are established. For specific range of cutting conditions, the regimes wherein the bilateral control system enhances the surface finish of the work piece in a sustained way are located. The regimes and effectiveness of the control system are quantified experimentally.

Abstract

A computation system dedicated for machine tool spindle drives is presented which integrates a FDM model with a FEM model. Modelling of heat exchange through coolers are discussed, as well as modelling of heat exchange between cooling-lubricating oil and gear transmissions, shafts and headstock walls. In modelling of heat exchange inside headstock, the use of additional elements - type "Fluid" and "Air" - is proposed. Sample modelling results are presented concerning a headstock from a drilling-milling machine tool for machining with high loads and are compared with experimental data.

Abstract

Demand of high speed production not only increases the complexity of today's CNC process, but also increases the risks and possibility of collision because of the difference between real (machining) and virtual scenes (CAD/CAM process). Idea here is to make this process more intelligent by processing image taken from the real or virtual machine scenes. Identify objects (already known in the CAD database), obtain safe and efficient trajectories that will modify the previous known trajectories from the CAM systems and will be used finally in real machining environments. This work more focuses to improve trajectory generation, collision avoidance and communication in CAD/CAM systems by image processing technique. Safe and Efficient Trajectory (SET) algorithm for point trajectory is discussed along with its extended version for object trajectory known as Rectangular Enveloped object Safe and Efficient Trajectory (RESET) algorithm that will perfectly generate safe un-functional trajectories [3] for multi-axis machine tool envelop. Meanwhile scene objects are detected and identified by image processing tool while trajectory and setup is optimized and improved accordingly in order to avoid collision. This generated trajectory can be used for setup correction before and after production or for "real times/online" production. Finally work has been validated through real and virtual machine scene images.

Abstract

Electrochemical machining (ECM) of curvilinear surfaces is one of the most basic and widely spread among electrochemical technology procedures for machine and tool parts. Constant parameters for preset machining time are hard to determine in this technology. This article presents a method of creating controlling code for ECM processing for which machining parameters changing over time are determined in a computer simulation of the process. An example of carrying out calculations, leading to determining process controlling code for preset electrode surfaces, is also presented, as well as the outcome of experimental verification.

Abstract

As many manufacturing companies are changing their production philosophies from a traditional focus on the manufacturing of the physical product towards a focus on the life cycle of the physical product, it is becoming important to engineer product's life cycle. Even more, many industrial researchers of the last decade see product's life cycle prolonging activities as a business opportunity both in economical and environmental ways. As a result, more focus is now put on the use phase and end-of-life phase, including maintenance and remanufacturing. The analysis of current end-of-life practices identifies significant improvements to product design that reduce the impact of manufactured goods on the environment as whole. Life cycle engineering and product take-back is a routine for many large industries and corporations nowadays, but, it is still a big challenge for a small and medium companies. In context of end-of-life strategies implementation, there is a very little experience for smaller firms, and results are often controversial. This paper will touch material processing equipment end-of-life strategies combination perspectives, real-life implementation of them, benefits and consequences. The case study is made on a basis of a lorry that will be transferred into spoil mixing plant.

Abstract

Users of coordinate measuring machine and large gantry machines need to ensure the volumetric performance of their machines in order to inspect, or machine, mechanical parts with precision. In the case of CMMs, the ASME B89.4.10360.2-2008 document imposes seven directions for a volumetric check. These directions offer some redundancy for axis location (out-of-squarenesses) and scale factor estimation. The paper looks at the opportunity of using the data for immediate machine correction and the risks involved. In particular, the fact of using test data for calibration and verification, the potential contamination from non-modelled motion errors and the representativity of the estimated parameters are considered. Experimental results obtained using laser interferometry on a LEGEX CMMs are used to present the main concepts.

Abstract

Machine vibration occurs as a result of unbalanced revolving masses, loading forces and moments, starting and coasting of driving motors and other effects. We try to eliminate these undesirable vibrations by suitable mounting of the mechanical system. Another possibility of suppression of the vibration machine is to use an absorber. A model of a vibration mechanical system with a vibration absorber is presented in the paper. The model consists of a fixed-end vibrating beam with primary vibrating mass M and with stiffness K and damping B. The harmonic force F with frequency ? and amplitude A acts on the primary mass M as well as on the beam with stiffness k and damping b, where the secondary mass m of the absorber is mounted. The task of the absorber is to minimize the movement of the mass M. A model (Fig. 1) has two degrees of freedom X and x. Two equations describe the movement of the primary mass M and the secondary mass m of the absorber. The model is solved first numerically by using Simulink. In numerical solution it is possible to set up parameters of the mechanical system with respect to the vibration reduction. According to the mechanical requirements for the mechanical system (output trajectory, velocity, forces and torques acting on the individual parts of the system), it is also possible to design input parameters (driving torques and other parameters of the mechanical system). A experimental model will be designed in order to verify results, where a voice-coil will be used as the actuator of the force F Numerical and experimental model allows changing parameters i.e. masses M and m, length L and l of the beams and frequency ? of the excitation force F. The results from the numerical solution are then possible to compare with the measured values of the experimental model. It is assumed that the experimental model will be equipped with accelerometers enabling the measuring of vibration, which will be placed on the masses M and m.
