Analysis and Prediction Approach to the Thin-Walled Workpiece Deformation with Thermo-Mechanical Couple Consideration

Article Preview

Abstract:

The metal cutting is a complexly dynamic physical process of thermal-mechanical coupling. It is difficult in analyzing the mechanism of machining deformation with the traditional calculation method. The key simulation technologies of the machining process are analyzed by means of finite element method (FEM), such as material constitutive model, chip separation criterion, tool-chip interaction and friction model, thermal control equation. During finite element simulation of the peripheral milling of the thin-walled workpiece, the contact constraints between the tool and workpiece can be effectively simplified. Thus, the tool and workpiece are considered as rigid and elastic bodies, respectively. In sequence, the unit birth and death technology is used to simulate the material removal in the milling process so that the effect of the workpiece size on machining deformation can be researched accurately. The investigation on the theory and application of the above key technologies can not only analyze and predict the deformation of thin-walled parts, but also optimize process parameters to control the machining deformation.
