14 Ultra-Precision Polishing Method for Large Free-Form Surface Optics
ZHOU Bo, LI Lun, TIAN Tongtong, ZHAO Jibin
DOI: 10.16080/j.issn1671-833x.2021.03.014
This paper aims to improve the precision and efficiency of precision polishing technology for large-scale free-form surface optical devices. By constructing a robotic polishing center as a polishing platform, the travelling salesman problem is solved in a planar mapping domain including unit circle domain, unit square domain and free boundary domain. For the quotient problem, the circularity value is calculated by projection, the mapping area is classified, and the obtained planar trajectory is mapped to the curved surface to obtain the polishing path for the ultra-precision optical device with large-scale freedom. The algorithm in this paper takes into account the calculation efficiency and boundary coverage quality. When the circularity of the projection area exceeds 0.9, the unit circle domain is used as the mapping plane domain. when the circularity value of the projection area is relatively small, between 0.8 and 0.9, the unit square domain is used as the mapping plane domain. When the circularity value is less than 0.8, the free boundary mapping domain is adopted. Simulation and experimental verification of polishing results show that this method can obtain an efficient non-crossing path, effectively reduce the intermediate frequency and high frequency errors caused by a single direction operation, meet the actual polishing processing requirements of changing direction of the polishing path, effectively eliminate the polishing texture, and significantly improve the polishing accuracy and efficiency.

In the process of arc additive manufacturing, aluminum alloy is easy to cause inhomogeneous microstructure distribution and solute segregation due to continuous heat accumulation, leading to its anisotropic properties. In order to solve this problem, the tungsten inert gas (TIG) additive manufacturing process with addition of TiB2 nanoparticles was designed. In the process of wire and arc additive manufacturing, TiB2 nanoparticles were added to the deposition samples by surface pre-coating. The effects of different mass fraction of TiB2 nanoparticles on the microstructure of AlSi5 alloy were compared and studied. The results show that the microstructure inhomogeneity of AlSi5 aluminum alloy was obviously improved with the mass fraction of TiB2 increased. The grain size decreased from 226μm to 85.6μm with the addition of 1.5% TiB2, and the texture on (110) and (112) basal planes decreased obviously, besides the maximum orientation density was decreased. The hardness and elastic modulus of the deposited layer were significantly improved with addition of TiB2 nanoparticles. The value of hardness increased from 879MPa to 1253MPa, and the elastic modulus increased from 81.9GPa to 88.3GPa.

WANG Wenhui, HUANG Xiang, MENG Yayun, LU Xiaoxiang, LI Gen
DOI: 10.16080/j.issn1671-833x.2021.03.076
In order to solve the problem of automatically measuring the assembly seams on large skins surface, a mobile robot autonomous tracking method for aircraft skin seam is proposed. The mobile robot includes a seam measurement module and a motion control module. The seam measurement module obtains the posture of the robot relative to the seam while measuring the gap and flush. The motion control module controls the robot to adjust position automatically. Based on the relative position between the dual linear structured light and the seam, an autonomous robot position adjustment method in different situations is proposed, which could solve the problem of autonomous position adjustment when the robot deviated from the seam. The experimental results show that the position error of the mobile robot for the autonomous tracking of the seam is 5.81mm and the angle error is 3.52°

97 Influence of Heat Treatment on Mechanical Properties of TA15 Titanium Alloy Fabricated by Laser Additive Manufacturing
GU Meibang
DOI: 10.16080/j.issn1671-833x.2021.03.097
This paper focused on studying the microstructure and mechanical properties of TA15 titanium alloy fabricated by laser additive manufacturing after normal annealing treatment and double anealing treatment. The results indicate that TA15 alloy has a super fine basketweave microstructure after normal annealing treatment, and which will change to a bi-modal microstructure with a crab-like primary α phase with super fine transformed β phase after double annealing treatment. The ultimate strength, yield strength and fatigue limit of the alloy after normal annealing heat treatment are better than the alloy’s after double annealing treatment. But the plasticity and fracture toughness of the alloy after double annealing treatment are superior to those of the alloy after normal annealing heat treatment
