/2024Al 复合材料电火花加工过程中会发生电极材料的熔化、汽化和氧化,同时,也伴随 SiC 颗粒的热剥落现象。在电火花加工表面观察到微裂纹的存在,在电火花加工过程中,由高温到低温的淬火过程使复合材料内部产生热应力,当应力超过材料的强度极限,则应力将以材料的塑性变形的方式释放,从而产生微裂纹。
Abstract
The deep hole processing of SiC
P
/2024Al composites was carried out by electrical discharge machining (EDM) process. The effects of different electrode cross-section shapes on processing performance such as material removal rate
machining stability and hole quality were studied. The results showed that the processing efficiency of EDM deep hole using spiral electrode was significantly higher than that of the cylindrical electrode under the same processing conditions. During the processing of the cylindrical electrode
the electro erosion debris accumulated in the electrode gap caused the tool electrode to retreat frequently
which greatly reduced the processing efficiency. Melting
vaporization and oxidation of electrode materials will occur during EDM of SiC
P
/2024Al composites. At the same time
thermal spalling of SiC particles will also occur. Micro-cracks were observed on the surface of EDM. During the process of EDM
the quenching process from high temperature to low temperature caused thermal stress in the composite material. When the stress exceeded the strength limit of the material
the stress will be released by the plastic deformation of the material
