Experimental Research of Rotational-and-Frictional Boring of Big Holes in Large Parts

Abstract

Abstract When producing large-dimensional parts of heavy machines, the largest specific weight in the general labour input is made by the operations, connected with machining the main holes, i. e. holes of large diameter. To the holes of large diameter of large-dimensional parts, there are specified high requirements in the aspect of accuracy of the size, shape and arrangement. Machining of holes still remains one of the topical problems of present day mechanical engineering, in particular machine-building enterprises of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Solving the problem of ensuring accuracy and quality of machining large holes of large-dimensional parts requires the development of new resource-saving technologies of machining. In this work there are presented the results of studying a resource-saving method of rotation-friction boring of large diameter holes. There has been achieved good results in providing the quality indicators, when machining by the proposed method of rotation-friction boring with the use of the tool (a disk cutter) made of steel 90CrSi5 in comparison with well-known boring of holes. The diagram of chip formation of cutting and the results of studying the zone of chip formation by the metallographic method is also presented.
