Description

Electric spark milling method
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of electric spark milling, in particular to an electric spark milling method capable of automatically keeping machining depth at a set value, and particularly relates to an electric spark milling method.
Background
The electric spark milling technology adopts a layered milling principle, utilizes a numerical control system to control the motion track of a simple-shape electrode, servo controls the discharge gap between the electrode and a part, simultaneously rotates the electrode at a high speed, and the electrode end faces the part to carry out electric spark processing to etch away the material on the surface of the part. Unlike conventional milling techniques, the material removal depth of electric spark milling is directly related to the time that the electrode is swept across a certain location of the part surface, so that control of the machining depth is largely empirical. The layered milling method can control the machining depth of each milling layer, but the layered milling principle also only provides that the layered thickness is smaller than the discharge gap, and the setting of the machining depth of the first layer is also dependent on the experience of the processor. Once the "man, machine, stock, method, ring" is changed, the machining depth of the first layer may be inaccurate, causing milling depth errors. This error can lead to inaccurate depth dimensions of the part and, in severe cases, to an inability to sustain the machining process.
The electrode itself is worn out while the discharge etches away the part material, and the machining depth becomes shallow. In particular, in the field of micro electric spark milling, the effective discharge gap of an electrode to certain high-melting-point metals is narrow, and the loss of the end face of the electrode during the machining is large, so that the end face of the electrode is lost beyond the effective discharge gap within a few seconds, and continuous machining cannot be performed.
The application patent with the publication number of CN106180923A discloses a micro three-dimensional structure electric spark milling method, wherein the forward and reverse milling and forward and reverse alternating milling mode is a mode of carrying out forward milling and reverse milling in the next circle, and compensating the loss of the previous circle by using the reverse electric spark milling in the next circle; the compensation mode based on the contact sensing method is that a tool setting point is set before machining, contact sensing is carried out, coordinates are recorded, machining is stopped after one cycle is finished, the contact sensing is carried out again after the machining returns to the tool setting point, the coordinates are compensated, and then the machining returns to a machining position for machining, and the method is specifically characterized in that once the program is executed for each time, the contact sensing is carried out; the method is characterized in that: the discharge gap was 0.01mm. The application presets the discharge gap as a fixed value, which indicates that the application still has room for improvement in the aspects of processing depth control and electrode loss compensation. The application adopts a contact sensing method to measure electrode loss and performs coordinate compensation during interrupt processing, which proves that each milling track cannot be guaranteed to have equal depth, and still has room for improvement.
If the electrode loss is converted to an electrode compensation rate after contact sensing, it is possible to compensate for the wire electrode loss in real time during milling. However, since there is a certain difference between the discharge condition of the electrode and the trial cut discharge condition during the real-time compensation, the compensation accuracy is to be improved.
The application patent with publication number of CN106077853A discloses a micro three-dimensional part electric spark milling method, wherein a tool electrode enters the bottom of a layer to be processed from a starting point; milling a groove with the length of 0.1-20 mm, ensuring that normal electric discharge machining removal occurs on the corresponding length, and measuring and calculating the length loss rate of the tool electrode; milling a groove with the length of 0.1-10 mm on the spare part under the condition of the selected layering thickness by taking the determined length loss rate as a parameter, completing the pre-deformation of the milled tool electrode, and taking the pre-deformed tool electrode as the layering milling tool electrode of the workpiece; length loss rate of tool electrode = loss length/track length. According to the application, the electrode cuts into the layer to be processed in a side discharge state, so that the problem that the electrode cannot be continuously processed after being worn due to the fact that the effective interval of electrode end surface discharge of some electric processing systems is extremely small under the condition of micro electric spark discharge is solved, the diameter loss of the electrode cannot be supplemented, and the width of a processing track is difficult to be kept consistent; the patent calculates the continuous compensation rate of the electrode by measuring the electrode loss length once, but the application has room for improvement in the aspects of electrode discharge state setting and electrode compensation accuracy because of the difference between discharge conditions of trial cutting processing and compensation processing, especially under the condition of large layering thickness.
