Computer Aidid Manufacturing of Marine Propellers by Parallel Kinematics Machine

Techniques of manufacturing integral marine propellers by Parallel Kinematics Machine(PKM) and CAM techniques for machining propellers by CAD/CAM systems are discussed in this paper.Firstly,the technological scheme for machining propellers by PKM is studied,the multi axis parallel serial machine tool for machining propellers is proposed,and the technological process of machining propellers by PKM is discussed.Secondly,complete CAD/CAM steps for manufacturing propellers using UG CAD/CAM module are presented,and Vericut is adoptedboth to simulate the tool paths generated by UG/CAM and check the interferences.Atlast,NC postprocessor for PKM based on UG/Post is invoked in UG/CAM and converts the tool path data into NC program to drive the PKM.Also machining experiments are performed.Compared with traditional multi axis machine tools for machining propellers,PKM for machining propellers have many advantages such as simple structure,cheap and small size.Not only does it put forward a new scheme and machine to manufacture marine propellers,but also can push the industrialization and practicality of PKM.
