Abstract:
Curved thin-walled parts have very important applications in the fields of spark micro - electrode and micro-turbine. In order to ensure the machining quality, the micro-milling of curved thin-walled feature has been studied to explore the influence of key parameters of feed engagement
fz, axial depth of cut
ap, radial depth of cut
ae and spindle speed
n on such indicators as surface roughness
Ra, size error Δ
w and burr width
h in this paper, Based on the comprehensive balance method, the optimal milling parameters are obtained. The test results showed that
n,
fz and
ap were the most influential factors for
Ra, Δ
w and
h respectively; The variable axial cutting process can inhibit the formation of burrs and obtain better processing quality. In order to improve the processing efficiency while ensuring the quality, larger radial depth of cut
ae and feed engagement
fz can be adopted in the processing process.
