Properties of discharge crater of CFRP are researched through a series of single discharge experiments. It is found that the shapes and numbers of discharge craters are different in different arrangement directions of carbon fiber. When the electrode and carbon fiber is perpendicular, 86% of discharge craters are multiple. At last, the reason why multiple discharge craters are generated is analyzed.
It is great difficult to manufacture a closed integral component due to its poor processing accessibility caused by complicated structure of air flow channel between two blades, especially the large bending and twisting degree in the channel as well as its component materials of high strength alloy. To solve this problem, several key technologies of electrical discharge machining (EDM) are discussed, such as division of the processing zone among the blades, shaped electrode and its motion trajectory design, process benchmarking unification, process parameters selection and optimization,simulation of EDM process and so on. On top of this, typical closed integral components are studied and manufactured. It is shown from the experimental results the above-mentioned technologies enable numerical control EDM technology to realize precise and reliable manufacture of closed integral components.
This article introduces the development trend of MES technology in recent years, and analyses the characteristics and mode of aeroengine assembly business. Based on the analysis result, we completed the assembly MES system design. For the core function of assembly MES system, we establish aeroengine assembly and disassembly process management solution based on the technology of network diagram, and aeroengine physical technical state management solution based on integration pattern.
