Production improvement of an aeronautical part
Laforce, Francois ; Polzer, Aleš (referee) ; Píška, Miroslav (advisor)
Since aircrafts manufacturers intend to produce low consumption and efficient aircrafts, parts become more and more difficult to machine. Some processes like „air machining“ enables a one-step production for complex aluminium alloy shaped parts. Although the assembly offers a large access to cutting tool, the lack of stiffness for large parts, and especially for thin-walled aeronautics parts implies strong vibrations during machining. The aim of the study is to solve these difficulties in order to keep productivity and improve surface quality. Further innovative solutions are considered like modal analysis, in-phase machining, spindle speed variation, 3 flutes end mill and variable helix angle mill. All propositions are tested on DMG 65 machine tool with Siemens 840D controller. Although vibrations are intrinsic to flexible parts, surface quality has been improved with higher cutting continuity and variable helix angle cutting tool.
