Abstract

Nickel-based single crystal superalloy is widely used in the field of aerospace and nuclear reaction equipment due to its good properties. Ultra-precision machining technology is an important means to ensure the surface quality of parts. However, the anisotropy of materials has great influence on the evolution of surface and subsurface defects and the removal of materials in the process of machining. In this paper, The MD (molecular dynamics) modeling and simulation verification of cutting anisotropic nickel-based single crystal superalloy workpiece with silicon nitride tool is carried out by using the mixed potential function simulation. Through cutting simulation and visualization, the types, number, deformation area and dislocation evolution of the machined surface defects and inside of the workpiece defect of nickel-based single crystal superalloy with different crystal orientations are analyzed. The evolutionary mechanism of the machined surface defects and the law of material removal are discussed. The research content provides a theoretical basis for parameter optimization and improvement of machining quality in the atomic and close-to-atomic scale (ACS) cutting process, and technical support for efficient and precise machining process of the nickel-based superalloy.
