INVESTIGATION OF RADIAL DEFORMATION OF NON-RIGID PARTS DURING ULTRASONIC BURNISHING WITH PRELIMINARY CLEARANCE
Simona PAULIKIENĖ – Department of Mechanical, Energy and Biotechnology Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Agriculture Academy, Vytautas Magnus University (Studentų Str. 15A, Akademija, LT-53362 Kaunas District, Lithuania; e-mail: simona.paulikiene1@vdu.lt, https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8803-2941).
The article considers the process of ultrasonic burnishing of non-rigid parts with preliminary clearance and investigates the influence of processing parameters on the quality of the surface layer. The relevance of the study is обусловлена the need to improve the accuracy, wear resistance, and durability of machine parts while simultaneously reducing material consumption and manufacturing labor intensity. It is shown that conventional machining methods are inefficient for manufacturing parts of complex geometry and components made of difficult-to-machine materials; therefore, the application of ultrasonic surface plastic deformation methods is considered a promising approach.
The study examines the process of radial displacement of a part under the action of the ultrasonic burnishing force. Existing theoretical relationships for determining part displacement were analyzed, and it was established that the known calculation models do not accurately describe the actual deformation process. A refined relationship for determining part displacement based on the average burnishing force over the vibration period is proposed.
Experimental studies were carried out on specimens made of steel 45, bronze BrOF 6.5–0.15, and aluminum alloy D16T, which have different values of elastic modulus and rigidity. Burnishing was performed using a carbide spherical tool with ultrasonic vibrations. To measure part displacement, a special experimental setup equipped with a capacitive sensor and a dynamic displacement recording system was developed. Experimental values of part displacement were obtained and compared with theoretical calculations.
It was established that during ultrasonic burnishing with preliminary clearance, the magnitude of part displacement significantly depends on the rigidity of the workpiece material and the tool penetration depth. It was proven that, in order to ensure the required surface roughness and machining accuracy, the penetration depth should not exceed 7 μm, especially for parts made of materials with a low elastic modulus. The proposed ultrasonic burnishing method makes it possible to effectively process non-rigid parts while ensuring high surface layer quality parameters.
