Research on a novel non-uniform and asymmetric ultrasonic vibration system and Machined surface characteristics

Abstract

Abstract A new type of non-uniform and asymmetric ultrasonic vibration system is proposed and applied to the turning process. The research results show that the design theory of the non-uniform and non-symmetric ultrasonic vibration system is accurate and reliable. The designed non-uniform and non-symmetric ultrasonic vibration system has excellent vibration performance and stability, and the established simulation model can predict surface microstructure accurately. The vibration mode output by the non-uniform and non-symmetric ultrasonic vibration system is longitudinal-bending vibration, and the actual vibration performance is excellent. Compared with conventional cutting, the addition of longitudinal-bending ultrasonic vibration under the same conditions can give the machined surface a microscopic texture structure, reduce surface roughness and water contact angle, and improve the surface wettability. The orthogonal experiment results show that there is a correlation between the machining parameters, surface micro-structure parameters, surface wettability, and surface roughness.
