A novel hybrid process that integrates end electric discharge (ED) milling and mechanical grinding is proposed. The process is able to effectively machine a large surface area on SiC ceramic with good surface quality and fine working environmental practice. The polarity, pulse on-time, and peak current are varied to explore their effects on the surface integrity, such as surface morphology, surface roughness, micro-cracks, and composition on the machined surface. The results show that positive tool polarity, short pulse on-time, and low peak current cause a fine surface finish. During the hybrid machining of SiC ceramic, the material is mainly removed by end ED milling at rough machining mode, whereas it is mainly removed by mechanical grinding at finish machining mode. Moreover, the material from the tool can transfer to the workpiece, and a combination reaction takes place during machining. 相似文献

A novel combined process of machining silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics with electrical discharge milling and mechanical grinding is presented. The process is able to effectively machine a large surface area on SiC ceramics with a good surface quality. The effect of tool polarity on the process performance has been investigated. The effects of peak current, peak voltage, pulse on-time and pulse off-time on the material removal rate (MRR), electrode wear ratio (EWR), and surface roughness (SR) have been investigated with Taguchi experimental design. The mathematical models for the MRR, EWR, and SR have been established with the stepwise regression method. The experiment results show that the MRR, EWR, and SR can reach 46.2543 mm3/min, 20.7176%, and 0.0340 µm, respectively, with each optimal combination level of machining parameters. 相似文献

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics have been widely used in modern industry. However, the manufacture of SiC ceramics is not an efficient process. This paper proposes a new technology of machining SiC ceramics with electrical discharge milling and mechanical grinding compound method. The compound process employs the pulse generator used in electrical discharge machining, and uses a water-based emulsion as the machining fluid. It is able to effectively machine a large surface area on SiC ceramics with a good surface quality. In this paper, the effects of pulse duration, pulse interval, peak voltage, peak current and feed rate of the workpiece on the process performance parameters, such as material removal rate, relative electrode wear ratio and surface roughness, have been investigated. A L25 orthogonal array based on Taguchi method is adopted, and the experimental data are statistically evaluated by analysis of variance and stepwise regression. The significant machining parameters, the optimal combination levels of machining parameters, and the mathematical models associated with the process performance are obtained. In addition, the workpiece surface microstructure is examined with a scanning electron microscope and an energy dispersive spectrometer. 相似文献

Silicon carbide (SiC) ceramic has been widely used in modern industry. However, the beneficial properties of SiC ceramic make
machining difficult and costly by conventional machining methods. This paper proposes a new process of machining SiC ceramic
using end electric discharge (ED) milling. The process is able to effectively machine a large surface area on SiC ceramic
at low cost and no environmental pollution. The effects of emulsion concentration, emulsion flux, milling depth, copper electrode
number, and copper electrode diameter on the process performance such as the material removal rate, electrode wear ratio,
and surface roughness have been investigated. In addition, the microstructure of the machined surface is examined with a scanning
electron microscope, and the material removal mechanism of SiC ceramic during end ED milling is obtained. 相似文献

Pipe cutting technology plays an important role in the process of offshore platforms decommissioning, as many devices such as tubing, drill pipe, and casing need to be decommissioned. In this study, a novel cutting pipe technology based on electro-discharge machining (EDM) is proposed, and a cutting pipe mechanism is developed to cut the pipes for decommissioning offshore platforms. The machining principles and characteristics of the technique are described. The effects of machining parameters, including tool polarity, dielectric fluid, electrode material and width, pulse on-time, pulse off-time, peak voltage, and electrode rotation speed to machining performance, are investigated. The material removal rate (MRR) of the machined casing and tool electrode wear ratio (EWR) is obtained based on the calculation of the percentage of mass loss per machining time. The experimental results show that a better cutting performance can be obtained with negative tool polarity at the conditions of dielectric fluid of emulsion, pulse on-time of 500 μs, pulse off-time of 200 μs, peak voltage of 70 V, copper electrode width of 28 mm, and electrode rotation speed of 250 rpm is a better choice. Additionally, the cutting slots surface has been investigated by the means of SEM. The cutting slots machined by the rotary EDM are clean and smooth. 相似文献

The effect of the cutting parameters on performance of WEDM 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In this study, variations of cutting performance with pulse time, open circuit voltage, wire speed and dielectric fluid pressure
were experimentally investigated in Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) process. Brass wire with 0.25 mm diameter and
AISI 4140 steel with 10 mm thickness were used as tool and work materials in the experiments. The cutting performance outputs
considered in this study were surface roughness and cutting speed. It is found experimentally that increasing pulse time,
open circuit voltage, wire speed and dielectric fluid pressure increase the surface roughness and cutting speed. The variation
of cutting speed and surface roughness with cutting parameters is modeled by using a regression analysis method. Then, for
WEDM with multi-cutting performance outputs, an optimization work is performed using this mathematical models. In addition,
the importance of the cutting parameters on the cutting performance outputs is determined by using the variance analysis (ANOVA). 相似文献

Digraph and matrix method for the performance evaluation of carbide compacting die manufactured by wire EDM 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

This paper presents a methodology to evaluate the performance of carbide compacting die using graph theoretic approach (GTA). Factors affecting the die performance and their interactions are analysed by developing a mathematical model using digraph and matrix method. Permanent function or die performance index is obtained from the matrix model developed from the digraphs. This permanent function/index value compares and ranks the factors affecting the die performance. It helps in selection of optimum process parameters during die manufacturing. Hence, process output errors such as dimensional inaccuracy, large surface craters, deep recast layers, etc. will be minimised during die manufacturing which helps to achieve better die performance. In present illustration, factors affecting the performance of carbide compacting die are grouped into five main factors namely work material, machine tool, tool electrode, geometry of die and machining operation. GTA methodology reveals that the machine tool has highest index value. Therefore, it is the most influencing factor affecting the die performance. In case of die material low cobalt concentration and small grain size yields good surface finish, while in machine tool low discharge energy (i.e. low values of peak current, pulse-on time, servo voltage and high value of pulse-off time) and high dielectric flow rate yields good surface finish and, hence, favours the good die performance. In case of die geometry, large work piece thickness and small taper angles results in lesser geometrical deviations and hence helps to achieve better die performance. 相似文献

Electrical discharge machining of ceramic matrix composites with ceramic fiber reinforcements 总被引:1,自引:3,他引:1

Ceramic matrix composites (CMC) are considered the next generation of advanced materials used in space and aviation due to their high-temperature strength, creep resistance, chemical resistance, low porosity, and low density. However, these materials are difficult to process owing to the large cutting force and high cost on tool consumption. electrical discharge machining (EDM), featured by the negligible machining force and acceptable tooling cost, is a potential nontraditional machining technique for CMC. In this paper, EDM was used to process a new class of advanced CMC, that is, those with continuous ceramic fiber reinforcements. The challenge is its low material removal rate (MRR) due to the low workpiece conductivity and debris evacuation efficiency. Electrode vibration and dielectric deep flushing were used to promote debris evacuation, and an increase of MRR and surface quality without sacrificing tool wear ratio was observed. Gap voltage, peak current, pulse duration, and duty ratio were studied using design of experiments for deeper understanding of the process. The effect of these parameters was investigated, and an analysis of variance was conducted. The optimal condition was also predicted and experimentally validated. It was found that a high gap voltage or low duty ratio leads to a high machining rate due to improved debris evacuation efficiency. The material removal mechanism was found to be cracking due to thermal expansion of the matrix and breakage of the nonconductive fibers. 相似文献

In this paper, a new type of sinking electric discharge machining (EDM) dielectric–water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion is proposed, and the machining characteristics of W/O emulsion are investigated by comparing with that of kerosene. In the experiments, machining parameters such as the dielectric type, peak current, and pulse duration are changed to explore their effects on machining performance, including the material removal rate (MRR), relative electrode wear rate (REWR), and surface roughness. Experimental results revealed that W/O emulsion could be used as the dielectric fluid of sinking EDM and adopting long pulse duration and large peak current could lead to obtaining higher MRR than kerosene. Compared with kerosene, W/O emulsion is observed to cause lower carbon adhered to the electrode surface. Therefore, its REWR is higher. Statistics of the discharge waveform show that more stable discharge processes can be obtained by using W/O emulsion compared with kerosene. Furthermore, W/O emulsion is more economical and more environmentally friendly than kerosene, and it could be an alternative to kerosene in sinking EDM application. 相似文献

A novel aluminium metal matrix composite reinforced with SiC particles were prepared by liquid metallurgy route. Recent developments in composites are not only focused on the improvement of mechanical properties, but also on machinability for difficult-to-machine shapes. Electrical discharge machining (EDM) was employed to machine MMC with copper electrode. using EDM. Experiments were conducted using pulse current, gap voltage, pulse on time and pulse off time as typical process parameters. The experiment plan adopts face centered central composite design of response surface methodology. Analysis of variance was applied to investigate the influence of process parameters and their interactions viz., pulse current, gap voltage, pulse on time and pulse off time on material removal rate (MRR), electrode wear ratio (EWR) and surface roughness (SR). The objective was to identify the significant process parameters that affect the output characteristics. Further a mathematical model has been formulated by applying response surface method in order to estimate the machining characteristics such as MRR, EWR and SR. 相似文献

Maraging steel (MDN 300) exhibits high levels of strength and hardness. Optimization of performance measures is essential for effective machining. In this paper, Taguchi method, used to determine the influence of process parameters and optimization of electrical discharge machining (EDM) performance measures on MDN 300 steel, has been discussed. The process performance criteria such as material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR), relative wear ratio (RWR), and surface roughness (SR) were evaluated. Discharge current, pulse on time, and pulse off time have been considered the main factors affecting EDM performance. The results of the present work reveal that the optimal level of the factors for SR and TWR are same but differs from the optimum levels of the factors for MRR and RWR. Further, discharge current, pulse on time, and pulse off time have been found to play a significant role in EDM operations. Detailed analysis of structural features of machined surface was done by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) to understand the influence of parameters. SEM of electrical discharge machining surface indicates that at higher discharge current and longer pulse on duration give rougher surface with more craters, globules of debris, pockmarks or chimneys, and microcracks than that of lower discharge current and lower pulse on duration. 相似文献

Evaluation of the characteristics of a microelectrical discharge machining (Micro-EDM) process is challenging, because it involves complex, interrelated relationships so a proper modeling approach is necessary to clearly identify the crucial machining variables and their interrelationships in order to initiate more effective strategies to improve Micro-EDM qualities (electrode wear (EW), material removal rate (MRR) and overcut). This paper uses a response surface method (RSM) based on the central composite design (CCD) for Micro-EDM problems with four EDM variables (peak current, pulse on-time, pulse off-time and electrode rotation speed). Experimental results indicate that peak current is the EDM variable that most affects the Micro-EDM qualities for SK3 carbon tool steel while pulse off-time had a significant interaction with that. The results show that RSM based on the CCD could efficiently be applied for the modeling of Micro-EDM qualities (EW, MRR, and overcut), and it is an economical way to obtain the performance characteristics of Micro-EDM process parameters with the fewest experimental data. 相似文献

The present study investigates the relationship of process parameters in electro-discharge of CK45 steel with novel tool electrode material such as Al–Cu–Si–TiC composite produced using powder metallurgy (P/M) technique. The central composite second-order rotatable design had been utilized to plan the experiments, and response surface methodology (RSM) was employed for developing experimental models. Analysis on machining characteristics of electrical discharge machining (EDM) die sinking was made based on the developed models. In this study, titanium carbide percent (TiC%), peak current, dielectric flushing pressure, and pulse on-time are considered as input process parameters. The process performances such as material removal rate (MRR) and tool wear rate (TWR) were evaluated. Analysis of variance test had also been carried out to check the adequacy of the developed regression models. Al–Cu–Si–TiC P/M electrodes are found to be more sensitive to peak current and pulse on-time than conventional electrodes. The observed optimal process parameter settings based on composite desirability are TiC percent of 18%, peak current of 6 A, flushing pressure of 1.2 MPa, and pulse on-time of 182 μs for achieving maximum MRR and minimum TWR; finally, the results were experimentally verified. A good agreement is observed between the results based on the RSM model and the actual experimental observations. The error between experimental and predicted values at the optimal combination of parameter settings for MRR and TWR lie within 7.2% and 4.74%, respectively. 相似文献

This paper presents research results on ultraprecision machining of metal matrix composite (MMC) composed of aluminum matrix and either SiC or A12 03 particles. Ductile-regime machining of both SiC and aluminum was evaluated to improve the surface integrity of the composite. Both polycrystal-line diamond (PCD) and single crystalline diamond (SCD) tools were used to ultraprecision machine the composites at a depth of cut ranging from 0 to 1μm using a taper cut. The feedrate was normalized to the tool nose radius. A model is proposed to calculate the critical depth of cut for MMCs reinforced with either A1203 or SiC. The critical depths of cut were found to be 1 p.m and 0.2 u.m for MMCs reinforced with A12 0 or SiC3, respectively. Both depth of cut and crystallographic direction of the ceramic particles are the sufficient conditions for ductile-regime machining. Although both tools produce similar surface finish, a SCD tool removed the MMC as chips while a PCD tool simply smeared the surface. A diffusion-abrasion mechanism was suspected to cause the surprising wear of the SCD tools when machining the aluminum/SiC composite. 相似文献

The advanced ceramic cutting tools have very good wear resistance, high refractoriness, good mechanical strength and hot hardness. Alumina based ceramic cutting tools have very high abrasion resistance and hot hardness. Chemically they are more stable than high-speed steels and carbides, thus having less tendency to adhere to metals during machining and less tendency to form built-up edge. This results in good surface finish and dimensional accuracy in machining steels. In this paper wear behaviour of alumina based ceramic cutting tools is investigated. The machining tests were conducted using SiC whisker reinforced alumina ceramic cutting tool and Ti[C,N] mixed alumina ceramic cutting tool on martensitic stainless steel-grade 410 and EN 24 steel work pieces. Flank wear in Ti[C,N] mixed alumina ceramic cutting tool is lower than that of the SiC whisker reinforced alumina cutting tool. SiC whisker reinforced alumina cutting tool exhibits poor crater wear resistance while machining. Notch wear in SiC whisker reinforced alumina cutting tool is lower than that of the Ti[C,N] mixed alumina ceramic cutting tool. The flank wear, crater wear and notch wear are higher on machining martensitic stainless steel than on machining hardened steel. In summary Ti[C,N] mixed alumina cutting tool performs better than SiC whisker reinforced alumina cutting tool on machining martensitic stainless steel. 相似文献

In the present research, wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM) of γ titanium aluminide is studied. Selection of optimum
machining parameter combinations for obtaining higher cutting efficiency and accuracy is a challenging task in WEDM due to
the presence of a large number of process variables and complicated stochastic process mechanisms. In general, no perfect
combination exists that can simultaneously result in both the best cutting speed and the best surface finish quality. This
paper presents an attempt to develop an appropriate machining strategy for a maximum process criteria yield. A feed-forward
back-propagation neural network is developed to model the machining process. The three most important parameters – cutting
speed, surface roughness and wire offset – have been considered as measures of the process performance. The model is capable
of predicting the response parameters as a function of six different control parameters, i.e. pulse on time, pulse off time,
peak current, wire tension, dielectric flow rate and servo reference voltage. Experimental results demonstrate that the machining
model is suitable and the optimisation strategy satisfies practical requirements. 相似文献
