Technical Characteristics of CNC Machine Tools for 5-Axis Machining of Aerospace Parts

2024-02-27


Aerospace parts 5-axis CNC machining industry is the foundation of national economic development. It is the most important part of the development of equipment manufacturing industry. The rapid development of the high-tech industry represented by the aviation manufacturing industry is bound to drive and promote the development of the equipment manufacturing industry, which has brought new opportunities and huge business opportunities for the market development of the 5-axis CNC machine tool industry, and will have a far-reaching impact on the product structure and production mode of the equipment manufacturing industry.

In order to reduce the weight of the aerospace parts, increase the maneuverability and payload and range of the aerospace, modern aircraft have been lightweight design, and new lightweight materials with high strength are widely used. In order to improve the strength and reliability of the parts, the main use of the whole blank and thin-wall overall frame structure, aerospace parts materials in addition to a large number of aluminum alloy, but also widely used titanium alloy, high-temperature alloy, high-strength steel, composite materials and engineering ceramics and other difficult to process materials.

5-axis machining parts

For this requirement, the 5-axis machining process characteristics of aerospace parts have the following seven points:


1. There is a wide difference in the size and structure of various parts, and the commonality of process equipment such as 5-axis machining machine tools for aerospace parts is not high. For example, the processing of fuselage structural parts requires the use of high-rigidity, efficient, large, high-speed machine tools, the processing of key parts of the engine requires the use of precision and flexible precision machine tools, and the processing of airborne equipment parts requires the use of multi-functional 5-axis composite machine tools.


2. The modern aviation manufacturing industry is usually faced with multi-variety, small batch and short production cycle production tasks, so the 5-axis CNC machining process system is required to have a high response speed.

3. The structure of the product 5-axis machining parts is complex, and the 5-axis processing is difficult. The shape of the parts involves the shape of the fuselage, the shape of the wing, the wing body fusion area, etc. Most of the parts are related to the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft, and the peripheral outline has a complex assembly coordination relationship with other parts.


4. The 5-axis parts have a large cutting capacity. Due to the increasing use of the overall structure design, the number of parts that need to be cut has increased significantly, and most of the parts have a very large amount of material removal during the cutting process, and the material removal rate of some aircraft structural parts has reached more than 90%.

5. Thin wall, easy to produce processing deformation. There are a large number of thin-walled and deep-cavity structures, which are typical weakly rigid structures.


6. High precision of 5-axis machining of aerospace parts. Due to the realization of no-allowance assembly, the requirements for seam and gap on the process separation surface are very strict, and the precision of 5-axis machining of aerospace parts is high.

7. The selection of cutting tools and cutting parameters is difficult. Due to the development of the tool industry can not catch up with the development and application of new materials, and the lack of machining and cutting database support, making how to reasonably select tools and scientific selection of processing parameters become a difficult process technology.
