A clear trend shows that most products or mechanical components, especially those regarding aerospace applications, are designed to fit the requirements of free form surface features. When a 3-axis computer numerical controlled (CNC) machining centre is used to produce a typical centrifugal impeller, great difficulties, i.e., collisions between the cutting tool and impeller, need to be overcome. In this case, sophisticated five-axis machines have to be utilised. Presently, most commercial computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems for five-axis control are lacking generality, and functions for the rough tool-path generation are far less than required. The rough machining is recognised as the most important procedure influencing the machining efficiency and is critical for the success of the following finishing process. However, great difficulties are expected to arise in performing five-axis rough machining. The main objective of the present study is to overcome this problem by combining related machining technology. As a result, CL data based on the geometry model of blade and hub of the impeller are generated. Finally, the CL data is confirmed through software simulation. The results of verification prove the machining methodology and procedure to be successful. 相似文献

When a 3-axis CNC machining centre is used for producing an impeller, great difficulties, i.e. collisions between the cutting tool and the impeller, can occur. The blade of an impeller is usually designed with a ruled surface. As the surface is normally twisted in design to achieve the required performance, it can cause overcut and collision problems during machining. The hub of the impeller is usually designed with an irregular surface, and is machined within a narrow and deep groove. The issues – how to satisfy the quality requirements of the part, reduce the machining time, and avoid the occurrence of collision – become an integral problem. This work develops an integrated 5-axis machining module for a centrifugal impeller by combining related machining technologies. As a result, cutter location (CL) data based on the geometric model of blade and hub are generated. Finally, the CL data are confirmed through software simulation. The results of verification show that the machining methodology and procedure adopted are successful. 相似文献

The recent growth in hydroforming technology has sparked interest in alternative methods to the current conventional die manufacturing
techniques. Hydroforming dies typically have shallow forming channels and open, low curvature surfaces, making them ideally
suited for 5-axis machining. To fully appreciate the benefits and to properly demonstrate the capabilities of 5-axis machining
for hydroforming dies, a comparison of 5-axis and 3-axis finish machining was done. Two hydroforming die insert sets were
machined on a 5-axis machine with a tilt/rotary table. The tool paths for 5-axis machining were generated using custom software
based on a modified form of a tool positioning strategy called the principal axis method. The quality of generated 3-axis
toolpaths was verified against the machining times of a third set of die inserts, similar to those machined in 5-axis, by
an independent industrial mould and die manufacturer using a 3-axis high-speed machine. A comparison of the generated 3-axis
paths versus the 5-axis paths for one of the die inserts was made using total finish machining tool path lengths to eliminate
differences in machines. The results show that the generated 3-axis tool paths are longer than the 5-axis paths by at least
247%. The paper discusses the different tool-path generation methods along with the geometry of cusp formation and the effect
of tool selection. Methods to improve the 3-axis results are also presented. 相似文献

The 5-axis NC machining offers the potential of efficient and accurate machining. However, the present CAM system for 5-axis control is still an unsolved problem due to interference between tool and surrounding objects. A new method is presented. There are two steps in this procedure. First, it detects the interference by calculating the shortest distance between the tool-axis and the surrounding surfaces. Then upon the maximum gouging, the interference-free tool posture for 5-axis NC cylindrical milling free-form surfaces is obtained by adjusting tool. The validity of the proposed method has been confirmed by machining an impeller. 相似文献

The most important components used in aerospace, ships, and automobiles are designed with free form surfaces. An impeller
is one of the most important components that is difficult to machine because of its twisted blades. Rough machining is recognized
as the most crucial procedure influencing machining efficiency and is critical for the finishing process. An integrated rough
machining course with detailed algorithms is presented in this paper. An algorithm for determining the minimum distance between
two surfaces is applied to estimate the tool size. The space between two blades that will be cleared from the roughcast is
divided to generate CC points. The tool axis vector is confirmed based on flank milling using a simple method that could eliminate
global interference between the tool and the blades. The result proves that the machining methodology presented in this paper
is useful and successful. 相似文献

Manufacturability Analysis for a Sculptured Surface Using Visibility Cone Computation 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
W Yang H Ding Y Xiong 《The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology》1999,15(5):317-321
This paper presents a general algorithm to obtain a feasible tool-approach direction for sculptured surface machining based
on convex analysis. The visibility cone which represents the aggregate of all visible directions is constructed to describe
geometric constraints. Combined with the convex hull computation algorithm, a detailed procedure for computing the visibility
cone has been developed. The visibility cone can be used as an effective tool for manufacturability analysis of the sculptured
surface when applied to CNC machining tool-path planning. After the visibility cone is acquired, tool orientation can be adjusted
to adapt itself to the local geometry of the sculptured surface at each cut contact position. The proposed methodology can
be applied to computer-aided planning and programming of cutter-path generation for 5-axis sculptured-surface machining. 相似文献

Reduced machining time and increased accuracy for a sculptured surface are both very important when producing complicated parts, so, the step-size and tool-path interval are essential components in high-speed and high-resolution machining. If they are small, the machining time will increase, whereas if they are large, rough surfaces will result. In particular, the machining time, which is a key factor in high-speed machining, is affected by the tool-path interval more than the step size. The conventional method for calculating the tool-path interval is to select a small parametric increment or small increment based on the curvature of the surface. However, this approach has limitations. The first is that the tool-path interval cannot be calculated precisely. The second is that a separate tool-path interval must be calculated in three separate cases. The third is the requirement of a conversion from the Cartesian domain to the parametric domain or vice versa. Accordingly, for high-speed and high-resolution machining, the current study proposes a new tool-path interval algorithm, that does not involve a curvature or any conversion, plus a variable step-size algorithm for NURBS. 相似文献

Plunge milling is the most effective way for rough machining of impeller parts, but previous research had not considered the optimization of plunge cutter selection and tool path. In this paper, a new method for optimizing the plunge cutter selection and tool path generation in multi-axis plunge milling of free-form surface impeller channel is proposed in order to improve the efficiency in rough machining. Firstly, in the case of fixing a rotation axis at a certain angle in five-axis machine, a mathematical representation is formulated for the geometric model of the cutter interfering the impeller, and an optimization model of the cutter size is established at a cutter contact point on the impeller channel surface, so the largest tool could be determined. Secondly, by analyzing the machine tool movement characteristics, the geometric constraint model of the plunge tool path which relative to the largest tool, step distance, and row space is established, and a tool orientation calculation method of impeller channel machining is given, and then, the plunge tool path and tool orientation could be obtained. Finally, the generated tool path and tool orientation are simulated and verified in practical processing. Simulation and experimental result shows that the rough machining efficiency of the impeller part is improved up to 40 % with this method. 相似文献

In the manufacture of parts with sculptured cavities from prismatic stock, rough machining usually constitutes most of the machining time owing to the significant difference between the stock and the part shape. When using 2 1/2-D milling or a contour-map approach to do the rough machining, the appropriate selection of tool-path pattern for each cutting layer can significantly reduce rough machining time and hence increase productivity. In this paper, the commonly used toolpath patterns are summarised. A knowledge-based parametric approach for optimising the toolpath pattern of a given cutting layer is proposed. Then, a novel methodology is developed to calculate an arbitrary polygon area and locate the concave cavities in the polygon. Procedures for cutting-layer-shape analysis and the optimal comprehensive tool-path pattern generation are also built and proposed in this paper. These procedures can not only be applied to sculptured cavity parts with simple islands, but also to parts with arbitrarily-shaped islands. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the reasoning process. 相似文献

An approach is presented to generate rough interference-free tool-paths directly from massive unorganized data in rough machining that is performed by machining volumes of material in a slice-by-slice manner. Unorganized point-cloud is firstly converted to cross-section data. Then a robust data-structure named tool-path net is constructed to save tool-path data. Optimal algorithms for partitioning sub-cut-areas and computing interference-free cutter-locations are put forward. Finally the tool-paths are linked in a zigzag milling mode, which can be transformed into a traveling sales man problem. The experiment indicates optimal tool paths can be acquired, and high computation efficiency can be obtained and interference can be avoided successfully. 相似文献

An Effective Global Gouge Detection in Tool-Path Planning for Freeform Surface Machining 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
L. Zhou Y.-J. Lin 《The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology》2001,18(7):461-473
This paper examines a usually neglected gouge phenomenon in tool-path planning for machining parts having freeform surfaces with 3-axis ball-end mills. That is, when a freeform surface is being milled with a ball-end cutter, a gouge may exist anywhere around the cutter circumference, in addition to the tool driving plane. A global gouge detection concept is developed to solve this problem. An effective method is proposed to identify the potential gouge areas on the sculptured surface during machining, before generating tool paths. Thus, it greatly simplifies the tool-path planning procedure and improves the accuracy and reliability of machining. It also facilitates geometric design processes of products and cutter radius selection which are crucial to machining efficiency. The designed part surfaces tested by the proposed methodology are constructed based on bicubic B2-splines and are assumed to be at least C 2 and may possess C 1 or C 0 continuity for generality. The tested examples demonstrate the effectiveness of the developed global gouge detection approach.
