Abstract
AbstractThe primary factors affecting the geometric accuracy of abrasive water jet (AWJ) machining of ultra‐thick carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates are the cutting front drag and kerf width deviation caused by energy dissipation. Firstly, this study comprehensively analyzes the influence of the coupling relationship between cutting front drag and kerf width deviation on the geometric accuracy of hole machining. Secondly, a gradient distribution theory for jet traverse speed with cutting depth is proposed for taper hole machining characteristics. Finally, a general geometric error model applicable to both straight and taper hole machining of ultra‐thick CFRP laminates using AWJ is established, along with a geometric error compensation method. A series of experiments validate the accuracy of the proposed geometric error model and compensation method. The novelty of this research lies in unifying the geometric error models for straight and taper hole machining of ultra‐thick CFRP laminates by considering the gradient distribution of jet traverse speed. The proposed error compensation method reduces the high degree of freedom required for machine tools. This study provides a general geometric error model and compensation strategy for AWJ hole machining of ultra‐thick CFRP laminates, which has significant engineering value for achieving 3D controllable AWJ machining of complex ultra‐thick CFRP components.Highlights The high geometric precision taper holes machining technique is a necessary prerequisite for achieving precise machining of complex trajectories in ultra‐thick CFRP with abrasive water jet. The influence of the coupling relationship between cutting front drag and kerf taper on the geometric accuracy of hole processing is comprehensively analyzed. A model considering the gradient distribution of traverse speed during taper holes machining was established, and a geometric error model considering this gradient distribution of traverse speed was developed. A taper holes machining geometric error compensation method with high engineering applicability was proposed. Geometric error prediction experiments and error compensation experiments were conducted, and the results proved the accuracy of the geometric error model and error compensation method.
