Technical Field
The invention relates to a bearing raceway precise progressive precise forming grinding machining method based on ELID grinding, and belongs to the field of precise and ultra-precise machining.
Background
The bearing is used as a key mechanical part which is precise and difficult to process in the mechanical industry, and is widely applied to various fields of industry, transportation, agriculture, national defense and the like. It is shown by relevant research analysis that of all mechanical equipment failures, about 30% are caused by bearing failure in rotating parts and about 80% fail due to ferrule raceway contact fatigue.
In the traditional bearing raceway processing technology, the processing steps are as follows: turning for shaping, heat treatment, grinding and oilstone ultra-fine grinding. The traditional high-precision bearing has complex processing steps. Due to the characteristics of high strength and high hardness of the bearing steel, abrasive particles of the grinding wheel are seriously abraded in the grinding stage of the traditional processing, and the grinding wheel is blocked by abrasive dust, so that the grinding force and the grinding heat are increased, the surface pressure stress of the bearing ring is reduced, and the service life is seriously influenced. In the final stage of the oilstone superfinishing, the oilstone has large size change, so that the problem of poor surface quality of a processed product is caused, and the performance of a part is directly influenced. The processing defects become a bottleneck for the development of the bearing manufacturing industry in China.

In order to overcome the defects of the traditional processing method, based on an ELID (metal bond grinding wheel on-line electrolytic dressing) grinding mechanism, the invention provides a bearing raceway precise progressive precise forming grinding processing method based on ELID grinding. The method can keep the shape precision of the metal-based grinding wheel unchanged for a long time in the precision forming grinding process, simultaneously, the online dressing can keep the grinding wheel in a good grinding state in the grinding process, the grinding force is reduced, and the grinding heat is reduced, so that the machined surface with a high pressure stress value is obtained, and the quality and the precision of the machined surface have higher consistency. Meanwhile, the method replaces oilstone grinding with precision forming grinding, reduces working procedures, reduces cost and improves the processing quality and precision of the bearing raceway. The bottleneck that the consistency of the bearing roller paths is difficult to guarantee in the background can be solved, and the high-precision, high-quality and high-consistency batch processing of the high-end bearing is realized.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
a bearing raceway precision forming grinding machining method based on ELID grinding is realized as follows.
Firstly, a clamping reference surface of the bearing ring on the electromagnetic chuck is determined. An end face grinding wheel (resin bond corundum grinding wheel) fixed on a machine tool is adopted to carry out on-site grinding processing on the end face of the electromagnetic chuck, and the ground end face is used as a clamping reference surface;
and secondly, carrying out precise numerical control turning on the copper electrode for electric spark modification. The electric spark electrode is precisely turned by numerical control turning to meet the requirement of precise electric spark forming with curve profile precision less than 5 μm.

Fourthly, the grinding surface of the metal-based grinding wheel is pre-sharpened. Electrolytic pre-dressing is carried out on the surface of the grinding wheel for a plurality of minutes by adopting an ELID grinding process system (comprising a power supply, a metal-based grinding wheel, electrolytic grinding fluid and an electrolytic electrode), and the pre-dressing is finished when the electrolytic current tends to be stable.
Fifthly, performing ELID precision forming grinding on the bearing ring raceway. An iron-based grinding wheel with the granularity of 240-W40 is selected, the single feeding amount is 2-5 mu m, and the workpiece is precisely ground by the ELID grinding process system 1. Obtaining the workpiece with the dimensional accuracy less than 5 mu m.
Sixthly, an ELID grinding process system 2 (which is positioned on the same platform and is parallel to the axis of the ELID precision forming grinding process system 1) is adopted to carry out ELID ultra-precision forming grinding on the bearing ring raceway. A grinding wheel with the granularity of W28-W5 is selected, the single feeding amount is 1 mu m, and the workpiece is subjected to ultra-precise grinding processing through an ELID grinding process system 2. And finally, carrying out 3s of polishing, and carrying out non-pressure grinding and polishing composite processing on the processed surface through the passive film coated on the surface of the grinding wheel.
And seventhly, detecting the machined bearing rings in small batches. And (4) detecting the products in batches by adopting a bearing measuring instrument, and determining the consistency level of the bearing rings.
The method is a new method and a new process for the precise forming and grinding processing of the bearing raceway, which are developed on the basis of ELID grinding technology as theory. The ELID grinding technology is characterized in that in the grinding process, the dynamic balance of an oxide insulating layer on the surface layer of a grinding wheel on the electrolytic inhibition effect is formed by utilizing the nonlinear electrolytic effect and a metal binding agent, the grinding wheel is subjected to continuous nondestructive sharpening, the abrasive particles of the grinding wheel obtain constant protrusion amount, meanwhile, the size of the grinding wheel is slightly influenced by the ionic electrolytic effect, the size precision of the grinding wheel can be kept unchanged for a long time, the stable, controllable and optimal grinding process can be realized, and the ultra-precise grinding processing requirement is met. The ELID grinding technology has the advantages that the shape precision retentivity of the grinding wheel is good, the sharpening process is online and continuous, the micro-fine removal of the machined surface can be realized, the grinding force is small, the generated grinding heat is less, the machined surface with a high pressure stress value can be obtained, and the quality and the precision of the machined surface have higher consistency. The ELID grinding technology is applied to the bearing raceway precision forming grinding machining, and the precision progressive grinding machining between the bearing raceway precision machining and the ultra-precision machining can be realized. The method replaces oilstone grinding with precision forming grinding, reduces the oilstone super-fine grinding process in the traditional processing, improves the precision and reduces the cost.
The grinding wheel granularity, the concentration, the electrolytic dressing speed of the grinding wheel, the abrasion speed of abrasive particles and the feeding precision of a machine tool are optimally combined, so that the micro-fine removal of the processed surface can be realized; through the quantitative accumulation of 'fine removal', the constancy of progressive magnitude between two procedures of bearing raceway precision and ultra-precision machining and the accurate progressive removal of procedure allowance, namely the accurate progressive precision forming grinding machining of ELID grinding, can be realized.
