Research on the variability of the burnishing force during processing surfaces with 3D shape by using simultaneous 5-axis ball-burnishing process implemented on CNC milling machine
oai:ojs2.aj-tuv.org:article/20The present research is focused on continuously measuring the variability of the burnishing force during conducting ball-burnishing process for specimens with surfaces with 3D shape, by using CNC milling machine with dual rotary table installed. For measuring the burnishing force and its variability, the specifically developed ball-burnishing tool with miniature force sensor was used. To assess the degree of influence of the main regime parameters on the variability of the burnishing force, the four factors full factorial experiment design with two levels per factor and four replications per run has been carried out. The experimental results are processed statisti-cally and techniques such as Pareto and ANOVA were used after that, for sorting them by degree of significance. Some conclusions about the magnitude and the causes of the obtained variability also are given.The present research is focused on continuously measuring the variability of the burnishing force during conducting ball-burnishing process for specimens with surfaces with 3D shape, by using CNC milling machine with dual rotary table installed.

Experimental research of partial regular microreliefs formed on rotary body face surfaces
The basic regularities in the influence of processing parameters on the geometrical characteristics of the partially regular microreliefs, formed on the rotary body face surface, are established. Combinations of partially regular microreliefs are formed by using a contemporary CNC milling machine, and an advanced programing method, based on previously developed mathematical models. Full factorial experimental design is carried out, which consist of three factors, varied on three levels. Regression stochastic models in coded and natural form, which give the relations between the width of the grooves and the deforming force, feed rate and the pitch of the axial grooves, are derived as a result. Response surfaces and contour plots are built in order to facilitate the results analysis. Based on the dependencies of the derived regression stochastic models, it is found that the greatest impact on the width of the grooves has the magnitude of the deforming force,followed by the feed rate. Also, it is found that the axial pitch between adjacent toolpaths has the least impact on the width of the grooves. As a result of the full-factorial experiment, the average geometric parameters of the microrelief grooves were obtained on their basis. When used, these values will provide for the required value of the relative burnishing area of the surface with regular microreliefs, and, accordingly, the specified operational properties
Application of New Generation Geometrical Product Specifications—Position Tolerancing
The geometrical product specifications (GPSs) from new generation are composed of several standards issued by the ISO/TC 213. They are related to the way of denoting the requirements in the design engineering drawings, such as drawing indication, definition of tolerance and values of specifications, characteristic, parameters and definitions of actual features. They also include requirements relating to compare verification, measure instrument and calibrate size, distance, radius, angle, form and position of geometrical features, roughness profile, waviness profile, primary profile, surface imperfection and edges. A lot of new and mathematical terms, the size system, indications of dimensions other than linear sizes by using geometrical tolerances, uncertainty series, etc. are introduced in this chapter. The aim of this chapter is to explain the new requirements of new generation standards for geometrical product specifications related to positional deviation. The advantages and disadvantages of the possibility to indicate the accurate requirements for location of surfaces and axes are discussed
Applying regular relief onto conical surfaces of continuously variable transmission to enhance its wear resistance
While investigating the variator transmission of vehicles, the relationship between the technological and service parameters of the working surfaces of conical disks treated by technological methods was established. The service properties are proposed to be enhanced by Regular MicroReliefs (RMRs) created on such surfaces. The optimal technological processing conditions were found, which allow retaining the greatest amount of lubricant. The causes of surface defects, formed on the working surfaces of conical disks of the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT), are systematized and classified. The wear resistance of such surfaces is proposed to be enhanced by technological methods, in particular, by forming partially RMRs on them. Their application facilitates relaxation processes on the material near to the surface, reduces shear stresses and strains, thus preventing the formation of burrs and extending the life of the conical disks of the CVT. A novel approach for obtaining the toolpaths of the deforming element, based on the so-called “Commis–Voyageur problem” algorithms, is employed in order to research the possibilities for involving that methods in toolpath generation. Dependences between the partial RMR’s formation conditions (deforming forces and feedrate) and microgeometric quality parameters are established. The latter include surface roughness, with a partially RMR applied onto the face surfaces of the test specimen (rotary body). It is found that these microreliefs enhance the ability of oil retaining in plastically deformed traces, formed over the operational surfaces, in comparison with those, that are processed by traditional cutting methods, as turning for example

A study on the variability of the pressing force during processing of regular shaped roughness by using new kinematical scheme for ballburnishing process
In many studies of the ball-burnishing processing often assumes that the pressing force applied to a ball tool remains a constant during the whole processing. The present study focused on measuring the compression force continuously during conducting ball-burnishing process, using new kinematical scheme. The combinations of values of the regime parameters are according to four factors full factorial experiment design with two levels per factor of type 24 and 4 replications per run. The experimental results are processed statistically and using techniques such as Pareto and ANOVA, the regime parameters of the process are sorted by degree of significance

Optimizing Weight of Housing Elements of Two-stage Reducer by Using the Topology Management Optimization Capabilities Integrated in SOLIDWORKS: A Case Study
This paper presents the results of a conducted topology management optimization study based on the finite element analysis on a two-stage spur gear reducer housing body and cover using the SOLIDWORKS Simulation module. The main goal of the study is to optimize the overall weight of the reducer by thinning specific areas of the casted gearbox housing elements according to the calculated minimal strain energy. The topology optimization algorithm that is used in current research gives an optimal structural shape of the housing elements of the reducer with the largest stiffness, considering the given amount of mass that will be removed from the initial design space. The complete sequence of steps for conducting the topology management optimization study is shown, taking into account the constraints arising from the construction features and the method of manufacturing the housing elements of the gear reducer. Conclusions on the use of the topology optimization results are given and potential directions for further development of the approach are also identified
