Investigation of Combined Method Use for Copper and Aluminum Alloy Processing

Abstract

The work purpose: the investigation of obtaining by a surface the required properties and possibility degree to control shaping processes. It is well-known that a shaping process is affected by many factors particularly at complex methods of processing. The analysis of machining condition impact upon surface layer quality of parts allows defining optimum parameters of cutting and increasing parts operation characteristics. 
 Investigation methods: theory, experimental researches, statistical processing of results, mathematical modeling, analysis. 
 Research results: there are defined criteria of surface quality at complex methods of shaping, roles of factors included in processing, mathematical models are formed, recommendations are formulated. 
 Novelty: it consists in the definition of regularities in pore covering at metal ceramic finish machining and definition of processing conditions impact upon pore covering, and also in the definition of efficient conditions of aluminum alloy finishing at the combined method of shaping. 
 Conclusions: as the investigations carried out show the combined methods of impact upon a surface at parts shaping allow reducing also cutter wear, minimizing collateral processing factors connected with heat generation, with increased friction forces and surface layer deformation of a billet at its processing. The combination of machining with electro-chemical processing allows not only having an influence considerable upon surface quality increase, but decreasing technological residual stresses and also contributing to the restoration of mechanical and physical properties of metal surfaces after electro-erosion processing at the expense of surface micro-layer elimination with the acquired thermal changes of structures.
