For this, it was designed a full factorial plan at two levels of five independent variables that include the whole processing in two and three cycles, the cold-forming degree and force during the plastic deformation (burnishing), and the temperature and time at the given temperature during the aging. Each cycle is composed of plastic deformation at room temperature plus aging. As dependent variables, the degree and penetration depth of strain hardening were evaluated. Based on the appropriately used set of experimental data, it had been fitted an exponential model for each dependent variables and also a two-degree polynomial fitting of in-depth evolution of microhardness profile was obtained. The amount of cycles and the cold-forming degree are the technological variables of CMTP that influence the most on strain hardening, although other variables also are significant. The microhardness profile highlights that during the CMTP, the strain hardening decreases from the outer bound to the transition zone of the surface layers, where it disappears.展开更多

However,material removal rate is not only related to geometric conditions such as the local cutting width,but also constrained by feeding speed as well as the motion capacity of the five-axis machine. This research integrates machine tool kinematics and cutter-workpiece contact kinematics to present a general kinematical model for five-axis machining process. Major steps of the proposed method include:(1) to establish the forward kinematical relationship between the motion of the machine tool axes and the cutter contact point;(2) to establish a tool path optimization model for high material removal rate based on both differential geometrical property and the contact kinematics between the cutter and workpiece;(3) to convert cutter orientation and cutting direction optimization problem into a concave quadratic planning(QP) model. Tool path will finally be generated from the underlying optimal cutting direction field. Through solving the time-optimal trajectory generation problem and machining experiment,we demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed method.展开更多
