Abstract

Lapping is widely applied to hole surface finishing. However, for small holes of high hardness material, low efficiency and unstable hole surface quality of traditional lapping cannot be ignored. In this paper, the ultrasonic transducer and horn–tool were designed by the analytical method and the finite element method (FEM). An equipment of ultrasonic lapping for small holes was developed. Vibration performance tests of developed equipment were conducted by using microscope and laser displacement sensor. The result showed that the amplitude of ultrasonic lapping equipment can meet manufacturing demand. The machining performance of the developed ultrasonic lapping equipment was also investigated by comparing the surface quality and material removal rate with traditional lapping. The result showed that the higher material removal rate and better hole surface quality can be obtained by ultrasonic lapping.
