1.1課題研究的目的與意義??
目的與意義:
隨著塑料成型加工機(jī)械和成型模具的迅速增長(zhǎng),高效率、自動(dòng)化、大型、微型、精密、高壽命的模具在整個(gè)模具產(chǎn)量中所占比例越來(lái)越大。從模具設(shè)計(jì)和制造技術(shù)角度來(lái)看,模具的發(fā)展趨勢(shì)可歸納為以下幾個(gè)方面:
??????? 1、?? 加深理論研究??? 在模具設(shè)計(jì)中,對(duì)工藝原理的研究越來(lái)越深入,模具設(shè)計(jì)已經(jīng)由經(jīng)驗(yàn)設(shè)計(jì)階段逐漸向理論計(jì)算方面以發(fā)展。
????? ??2、 高效率、自動(dòng)化??? 大量采用各種高效率、自動(dòng)化的模具結(jié)構(gòu),如高效冷卻以縮短成型周期;各種能可靠地自動(dòng)脫出產(chǎn)品和流道凝料的脫模機(jī)構(gòu);熱流道澆注系統(tǒng)注射出模具等。高速自動(dòng)化的塑料成型機(jī)械配合以先進(jìn)的模具,對(duì)提高生產(chǎn)效率,降低成本起了很大作用。
??????? 3、?? 大型、超小型及高精度? 由于模料應(yīng)用的擴(kuò)大,塑料制件已應(yīng)用到建筑、機(jī)械、電子、儀器、儀表等各個(gè)工業(yè)領(lǐng)域,于是出現(xiàn)了各種大型、精密和高壽命的成型模具,為了滿足這些要求,研制了高強(qiáng)度、高硬度、高耐磨性能且易加工,熱處理變小、導(dǎo)熱性能優(yōu)異的制模材料。
??????? 4、? 革命模具制造工藝??? 為了更新產(chǎn)品花式和適應(yīng)小批量產(chǎn)品的生產(chǎn)要求,除大力發(fā)展高強(qiáng)度、高耐磨性的材料外,同時(shí)又重視簡(jiǎn)易制模工藝研究。
??????? 5、?? 標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化??? 開(kāi)展模具標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化工作,使模板,導(dǎo)柱等通用零件標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化、商品化,以適應(yīng)大規(guī)模地成批生產(chǎn)塑料成型模具。
通過(guò)本次諾基亞8610手機(jī)前殼體注塑模具設(shè)計(jì),使自己能夠?qū)臅?shū)本中學(xué)到的理論知識(shí)與生產(chǎn)實(shí)際相結(jié)合,進(jìn)一步強(qiáng)化自己對(duì)注塑模具設(shè)計(jì)設(shè)計(jì)流程的熟悉,能夠熟練查閱注塑模具設(shè)計(jì)手冊(cè)及相關(guān)書(shū)籍,熟練掌握pro/e軟件的操作過(guò)程。熟練掌握繪圖和編寫(xiě)技術(shù)文件的能力。手機(jī)已成為日益普遍的通訊工具,因此其注塑模具的需求也日益增多,市場(chǎng)前景廣泛,而且根據(jù)不同手機(jī)的外形的不同,注塑模具也就有了很大的不同。因此通過(guò)對(duì)這款手機(jī)外殼模具的設(shè)計(jì),增強(qiáng)了自己獨(dú)立設(shè)計(jì)注塑模具的能力。
在網(wǎng)絡(luò)化和數(shù)字化迅猛發(fā)展的今天,手機(jī)已經(jīng)成為引領(lǐng)消費(fèi)時(shí)尚的異軍突起的工業(yè)產(chǎn)品。2007年國(guó)內(nèi)手機(jī)產(chǎn)量有望突破4億部,占全球總產(chǎn)量的50%,手機(jī)出口額達(dá)到133億美元。因此手機(jī)外殼注射模具的設(shè)計(jì)有廣泛的市場(chǎng)應(yīng)用前景。
1.2文獻(xiàn)綜述(相關(guān)課題國(guó)內(nèi)外研究的現(xiàn)狀)
國(guó)外方面:
隨著全球經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展,新的技術(shù)革命不斷取得新的進(jìn)展和突破,技術(shù)的飛躍發(fā)展已經(jīng)成為全世界經(jīng)濟(jì)增長(zhǎng)的重要因素。市場(chǎng)經(jīng)濟(jì)的不斷發(fā)展,促使工業(yè)產(chǎn)品越來(lái)越向多品種、小批量、高質(zhì)量、低成本的方向發(fā)展,為了保持和加強(qiáng)產(chǎn)品在市場(chǎng)上的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力,產(chǎn)品的開(kāi)發(fā)周期、生產(chǎn)周期越來(lái)越短,于是對(duì)制造各種產(chǎn)品的關(guān)鍵工藝裝備—模具的要求越來(lái)越苛刻。
國(guó)外注塑成型技術(shù)在向多工位、商效率、自動(dòng)化、連續(xù)化、低成本方向發(fā)展。因此.模具向高精度復(fù)雜、多功能的方向發(fā)展.例如:組合模、即鈑金和注塑一體注塑鉸鏈一體注塑、活動(dòng)周轉(zhuǎn)箱一體注塑;多色注塑等;向高效率、高自動(dòng)化和節(jié)約能源降低成本的方向發(fā)展 例如:疊模的大量制造和應(yīng)用.水路設(shè)計(jì)的復(fù)雜化、裝夾的自動(dòng)化、取件全部自動(dòng)化。
國(guó)外模具工廠運(yùn)行的現(xiàn)狀介紹。21世紀(jì)模具制造行業(yè)的基本特征是高度集成化、智能化、柔性化和網(wǎng)絡(luò)化。追求的目標(biāo)是提高產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量及生產(chǎn)效率??s短設(shè)計(jì)周期及制造周期,降低生產(chǎn)成本,最大限度地提高模具制造業(yè)的應(yīng)變能力滿足用戶(hù)需求。
國(guó)內(nèi)方面:
80年代以來(lái),在國(guó)家產(chǎn)業(yè)政策和與之配套的一系列國(guó)家經(jīng)濟(jì)政策的支持和引導(dǎo)下,我國(guó)模具工業(yè)發(fā)展迅速,均增速均為13%,1999年我國(guó)模具工業(yè)產(chǎn)值為245億,至2002年我國(guó)模具總產(chǎn)值約為360億元,其中塑料模約30%右。在未來(lái)的模具市場(chǎng)中,塑料模在模具總量中的比例還將逐步提高。
我國(guó)塑料模具工業(yè)從起步到現(xiàn)在,歷經(jīng)半個(gè)多世紀(jì),有了很大發(fā)展,模具水平有了較大提高。在大型模具方面能生產(chǎn)48英寸大屏幕彩電塑殼注射模具、6.5Kg大容量洗衣機(jī)全套塑料模具以及汽車(chē)保險(xiǎn)杠和整體儀表板等塑料模具,精密塑料模具方面,已能生產(chǎn)照相機(jī)塑料件模具、多型腔小模數(shù)齒輪模具及塑封模具。如天津的津榮天和機(jī)電有限公司和煙臺(tái)北極星Ⅰ.K模具有限公司制造多腔VCD和DVD齒輪模具,所生產(chǎn)的這類(lèi)齒輪塑件的尺寸精度、同軸度、跳動(dòng)等要求都達(dá)到了國(guó)外同類(lèi)產(chǎn)品的水平,而且還采用最新的齒輪設(shè)計(jì)軟件,糾正了由于成型收縮造成齒形誤差,達(dá)到了標(biāo)準(zhǔn)漸開(kāi)線齒形要求。還能生產(chǎn)厚度僅為0.08mm的一模兩腔的航空杯模具和難度較高的塑料門(mén)窗擠出模等等。注塑模型腔制造精度可達(dá)0.02mm~0.05mm,表面粗糙度Ra0.2μm,模具質(zhì)量、壽命明顯提高了,非淬火鋼模壽命可達(dá)10~30萬(wàn)次,淬火鋼模達(dá)50~1000萬(wàn)次,交貨期較以前縮短,但和國(guó)外相比仍有較大差距。
近年來(lái)我國(guó)通過(guò)引進(jìn)國(guó)際的先進(jìn)技術(shù)和加工設(shè)備,使塑料模具的制造水平比十年前進(jìn)了一大步,然而由于基礎(chǔ)薄弱、對(duì)引進(jìn)技術(shù)的吸收、掌握,尚有一段距離,而且發(fā)展也十分不平衡,因而,我國(guó)塑料模具總體水平與世界先進(jìn)技術(shù)尚有一定差距。塑料成型模具可分為三大類(lèi),即注射成型模具、中空成型模具和擠出成型模具。我國(guó)現(xiàn)在的制造水平,以注射成型模具為最高,中空成型具為最低,如化妝品用瓶子的吹塑模具,無(wú)論從造型以及質(zhì)量上遠(yuǎn)不能適應(yīng)出口要求。
從注塑工藝來(lái)說(shuō),氣體輔助注射成型、結(jié)構(gòu)泡沫成型、反應(yīng)注射成型、共注射成型、推-拉成型、注射-壓縮成型、低壓注射成型、交變注射成型、熔芯注射成型、動(dòng)態(tài)保壓注射成型等引入了模內(nèi)反應(yīng)、發(fā)泡、振動(dòng)和氣輔等關(guān)鍵技術(shù),大大豐富了傳統(tǒng)注塑工藝的內(nèi)容,使塑料的流動(dòng)特性、制品的力學(xué)性能、外觀質(zhì)量都得到有效的控制。當(dāng)然,這些新型注塑工藝所要求的注塑機(jī)和模具系統(tǒng)等機(jī)械、壓力和電氣系統(tǒng)控制也有別與傳統(tǒng)注塑機(jī)。
近年來(lái),國(guó)內(nèi)已較廣泛地采用一些新的塑料模具鋼,如:P20、3Cr2Mo、PMS、SMⅠ、SMⅡ等,對(duì)模具的質(zhì)量和使用壽命有著直接的重大的影響,但總體使用量仍較少。塑料模標(biāo)準(zhǔn)模架、標(biāo)準(zhǔn)推桿和彈簧等越來(lái)越廣泛地得到應(yīng)用,并且出現(xiàn)了一些國(guó)產(chǎn)的商品化的熱流道系統(tǒng)元件。但目前我國(guó)模具標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化程度和商品化程度一般在30%以下,和國(guó)外先進(jìn)工業(yè)國(guó)家已達(dá)到70%-80%相比,仍有很大差距。
當(dāng)今,中國(guó)塑料工業(yè)已步人世界塑料先進(jìn)大國(guó)的行列,塑料機(jī)械與模具、塑料制品與應(yīng)用,塑料樹(shù)脂與助劑,總的生產(chǎn)量和消費(fèi)量都分別躍居世界的第一、第二、第三位,為世人所關(guān)注。因?yàn)?,從此結(jié)束了我國(guó)塑料工業(yè)長(zhǎng)期 利用國(guó)產(chǎn)裝備生產(chǎn)高精密塑料制品的歷史!宣告我國(guó)塑料制品行業(yè)已真正步入精密化、微型化時(shí)代!

1 介紹
塑料是重要的工程材料,由于其具有特定的特點(diǎn):如耐腐蝕性,抗化學(xué)品的腐蝕,密度低,并且易于制造,在工業(yè)應(yīng)用上已日益取代金屬部件。注射成型工藝在塑料產(chǎn)品中是一個(gè)重要的成形過(guò)程。表面加工的質(zhì)量是注塑模的一個(gè)重要要求,因?yàn)樗苯佑绊懰苣z產(chǎn)品的外觀。加工過(guò)程中的拋光和研磨被普遍使用來(lái)改善工件表面光潔度。
展開(kāi)磨削已被廣泛應(yīng)用于傳統(tǒng)模具加工行業(yè)。展開(kāi)磨削的自動(dòng)化表面加工過(guò)程的幾何模型將在【1】中介紹。球面磨削加工使自動(dòng)化表面加工系統(tǒng)被提高了【2】。磨削速度,切削深度,進(jìn)給速度,磨具屬性,如研磨材料和磨料粒大小,在球形磨削過(guò)程中起主導(dǎo)作用,如圖1所示。注塑模具的最優(yōu)球面磨削參數(shù)尚未被證實(shí)。
近幾年來(lái),一些確定拋光過(guò)程最佳參數(shù)的研究已經(jīng)進(jìn)在行了。舉例來(lái)說(shuō),現(xiàn)在已發(fā)現(xiàn)塑料變形可使工件表面減少使用碳化鎢材料,從而改善其表面粗糙度,表面硬度,抗疲勞強(qiáng)度[ 3-6 ] 。拋光過(guò)程是通過(guò)加工中心[ 3,4]和車(chē)床[ 5 ,6 ] 來(lái)完成年的。主要拋光參數(shù)對(duì)球或滾子材料的表面的粗糙度具有重大作用,拋光力,進(jìn)給速度,拋光速度,潤(rùn)滑,其他的拋光途徑,其中包括[ 3 ] 。注塑模的最佳表面拋光參數(shù)是一種組合的油脂潤(rùn)滑劑,碳化鎢材料,拋光速度,拋光力,進(jìn)給 [ 7 ] 。拋光表面采用最佳球面拋光參數(shù)的滲透速度為2.5微米。通過(guò)拋光過(guò)程來(lái)改善表面粗糙度的概率一般在到 [ 3-7 ] 。

本研究的主要目的是提高加工中心注塑模具自由表面的磨削和拋光光潔度。自動(dòng)化表面磨削和拋光過(guò)程的流程圖如圖。我們給加工中心設(shè)計(jì)和制造球面磨削工具及其對(duì)準(zhǔn)裝置,最佳球面磨削參數(shù)的特定是利用Taguchi正交矩陣方法。四個(gè)因素和三個(gè)相應(yīng)條件,然后挑選Taguchi正交矩陣方法矩陣進(jìn)行實(shí)驗(yàn)。表面研磨的最佳展開(kāi)球面磨削參數(shù)被應(yīng)用到自由曲面加工過(guò)程中。用最佳球面拋光參數(shù)來(lái)改善表面粗糙度和光潔度。
2 設(shè)計(jì)球面磨削工具及其對(duì)準(zhǔn)裝置
從自由表面的球面磨削過(guò)程進(jìn)行的可能性看,球面磨削中心應(yīng)在加工中心的軸,展開(kāi)磨削的工具及調(diào)節(jié)裝置的設(shè)計(jì)如圖所示。電動(dòng)磨床是安裝在兩個(gè)可調(diào)樞軸螺釘之間。該磨床中心的磨削球借助圓錐曲線溝槽的對(duì)齊組件和圓錐形凹線進(jìn)行的良好的排列。排列好的研磨球被兩個(gè)可調(diào)螺釘固定,之后,對(duì)準(zhǔn)元件可以被撤銷(xiāo)。球面磨床的中心坐標(biāo)和它的偏差在左右,它是由數(shù)控坐標(biāo)測(cè)量機(jī)測(cè)量。機(jī)床振動(dòng)導(dǎo)致的力被螺旋型彈簧吸收。球面磨削工具和球面拋光工具的安裝如圖所示,主軸被鎖,不論磨削過(guò)程還是拋光過(guò)程由主軸鎖定。

3 矩陣實(shí)驗(yàn)的步驟
3.1 Taguchi正交陣列的結(jié)構(gòu)
用Taguchi正交矩陣[ 8 ]做矩陣實(shí)驗(yàn)要求那些參數(shù)的影響是有效地。為了配合上述球面磨削參數(shù)的要求,在本研究中磨削的材料(直徑10毫米),進(jìn)給速度,磨削深度,電動(dòng)磨床的轉(zhuǎn)速被選定為四個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)因素(參數(shù))并被指定為因子A至D (見(jiàn)表1 )。并為每個(gè)素設(shè)定了3個(gè)等級(jí)來(lái)包含它們所涉及的范圍,用數(shù)字1、2、3來(lái)標(biāo)識(shí)。每個(gè)因素的3個(gè)

數(shù)值要求在在研究結(jié)果的基礎(chǔ)上來(lái)確定。第四個(gè)因素的第三級(jí)的磨削過(guò)程用正交矩陣來(lái)進(jìn)行矩陣實(shí)驗(yàn)。
3.2 數(shù)據(jù)分析
工程設(shè)計(jì)上的問(wèn)題可以分成越小越好的類(lèi)型,額定最佳類(lèi)型,越大越好的類(lèi)型,標(biāo)記目標(biāo)類(lèi)型,其中還包括[ 8 ] 。該信號(hào)和噪音()的比例是用來(lái)作為優(yōu)化產(chǎn)品或工藝設(shè)計(jì)的目標(biāo)函數(shù)。經(jīng)過(guò)磨削參數(shù)的組合,其表面粗糙度值應(yīng)小于原來(lái)表面的粗糙度值。因此,球面磨削過(guò)程是越小越好類(lèi)型問(wèn)題的一個(gè)例子。該比,,是指由下列方程[ 8 ]定義的 :

n :多次實(shí)驗(yàn)
每個(gè) 正交矩陣計(jì)算的的比值顯示,每個(gè)因素的主要影響是由不同技術(shù)的分析和方差測(cè)試的結(jié)果來(lái)決定的 [ 8 ] 。解決越小越好問(wèn)題的的最佳方法是取的最大值,由公式1來(lái)定義的。各個(gè)因素的最大值的選定將對(duì)有重大影響,然后就能確定球面磨削的最佳條件。

該材料用于工具鋼的研究[ 9 ] ,這是常用于在汽車(chē)部件和家用器具領(lǐng)域的大型注塑模具制品。這種材料的優(yōu)越性在于經(jīng)過(guò)加工后,模具可以直接用于其特殊前處理未經(jīng)熱處理的進(jìn)一步加工過(guò)程。該產(chǎn)品的設(shè)計(jì)制造使它們可以被要求裝在動(dòng)力架上來(lái)測(cè)量其動(dòng)力。經(jīng)過(guò)簡(jiǎn)單加工,然后裝在動(dòng)力架上對(duì)3坐標(biāo)加工中心進(jìn)行測(cè)量,該加工中心由Yang-Iron公司生產(chǎn),配備了FUNUC公司數(shù)控控制器。運(yùn)用Hommelwerke T4000設(shè)備對(duì)預(yù)加工表面粗糙度的測(cè)量,大約為。圖6顯示了實(shí)驗(yàn)開(kāi)始時(shí)的球面磨削過(guò)程,由Renishaw公司生產(chǎn)的觸發(fā)器結(jié)合加工中心刀具參數(shù)來(lái)測(cè)量和協(xié)調(diào)該制品。該拋光路徑由PowerMILL CAM軟件生成數(shù)控代碼。這些代碼可以同步傳送到數(shù)控加工中心的RS232串行接口中。
表2總結(jié)了表面粗糙度值Ra的測(cè)量和用公式1計(jì)算每個(gè)正交矩陣的值,然后進(jìn)行真叫矩陣材料實(shí)驗(yàn)。通過(guò)的平均值可以得到每個(gè)級(jí)別的4個(gè)因素,在表3中列表,其數(shù)字在表2中列出。其示意圖如圖7所示。

其目的在于將磨削過(guò)程中的表面粗糙度值減到最小,確定每項(xiàng)因素的最佳等級(jí)。由于該函數(shù)為單調(diào)遞減函數(shù),我們應(yīng)定量增大值。因此,我們能確定每一項(xiàng)因素的最佳等級(jí)。其最高值為。因此,基于矩陣實(shí)驗(yàn),最佳研磨材料是粉紅氧化鋁(,PA),最佳進(jìn)給速度為,最佳磨削深度為,最佳轉(zhuǎn)速為。如表4所示。

Chen Wen-Tu Li Automated surface finishing of plastic injection mold steel with spherical grinding and ball burnishing processes Received: 30 March 2004 / Accepted: 5 July 2004 / Published online: 30 March 2005 Springer-Verlag London Limited 2005 Abstract This study investigates the possibilities of automated spherical grinding and ball burnishing surface finishing pro- cesses in a freeform surface plastic injection mold steel PDS5 on a CNC machining center. The design and manufacture of a grinding tool holder has been accomplished in this study. The optimal surface grinding parameters were determined using Taguchis orthogonal array method for plastic injection molding steel PDS5 on a machining center. The optimal surface grind- ing parameters for the plastic injection mold steel PDS5 were the combination of an abrasive material of PA Al 2 O 3 , a grind- ing speed of 18 000 rpm, a grinding depth of 20 m, and a feed of 50 mm/min. The surface roughness R a of the specimen can be improved from about 1.60 mto0.35 m by using the optimal parameters for surface grinding. Surface roughness R a can be further improved from about 0.343 mto0.06 mbyusingthe ball burnishing process with the optimal burnishing parameters. Applying the optimal surface grinding and burnishing parame- ters sequentially to a fine-milled freeform surface mold insert, the surface roughness R a of freeform surface region on the tested part can be improved from about 2.15 mto0.07 m.

Injec- tion molding is one of the important forming processes for plas- tic products. The surface finish quality of the plastic injection mold is an essential requirement due to its direct effects on the appearance of the plastic product. Finishing processes such as grinding, polishing and lapping are commonly used to improve the surface finish. The mounted grinding tools (wheels) have been widely used in conventional mold and die finishing industries. The geometric model of mounted grinding tools for automated surface finish- ing processes was introduced in 1. A finishing process model of spherical grinding tools for automated surface finishing sys- tems was developed in 2. Grinding speed, depth of cut, feed rate, and wheel properties such as abrasive material and abrasive grain size, are the dominant parameters for the spherical grind- ing process, as shown in Fig. 1. The optimal spherical grinding parameters for the injection mold steel have not yet been investi- gated based in the literature. In recent years, some research has been carried out in de- termining the optimal parameters of the ball burnishing pro- cess (Fig. 2). For instance, it has been found that plastic de- formation on the workpiece surface can be reduced by using a tungsten carbide ball or a roller, thus improving the surface roughness, surface hardness, and fatigue resistance 36. The burnishing process is accomplished by machining centers 3, 4 and lathes 5, 6. The main burnishing parameters having signifi- cant effects on the surface roughness are ball or roller material, burnishing force, feed rate, burnishing speed, lubrication, and number of burnishing passes, among others 3. The optimal sur- face burnishing parameters for the plastic injection mold steel PDS5 were a combination of grease lubricant, the tungsten car- bide ball, a burnishing speed of 200 mm/min, a burnishing force of 300 N, and a feed of 40 m 7. The depth of penetration of the burnished surface using the optimal ball burnishing parameters was about 2.5 microns. The improvement of the surface rough- ness through burnishing process generally ranged between 40% and 90% 37. The aim of this study was to develop spherical grinding and ball burnishing surface finish processes of a freeform surface 62 plastic injection mold on a machining center. The flowchart of automated surface finish using spherical grinding and ball bur- nishing processes is shown in Fig. 3. We began by designing and manufacturing the spherical grinding tool and its alignment de- vice for use on a machining center. The optimal surface spherical grinding parameters were determined by utilizing a Taguchis orthogonal array method. Four factors and three corresponding levels were then chosen for the Taguchis L 18 matrix experiment. The optimal mounted spherical grinding parameters for surface grinding were then applied to the surface finish of a freeform surface carrier. To improve the surface roughness, the ground surface was further burnished, using the optimal ball burnishing parameters. Fig. 1. Schematic diagram of the spherical grinding process Fig. 2.

Flowchart of automated surface finish using spherical grinding and ball burnishing processes 2 Design of the spherical grinding tool and its alignment device To carry out the possible spherical grinding process of a freeform surface, the center of the ball grinder should coincide with the z-axis of the machining center. The mounted spherical grinding tool and its adjustment device was designed, as shown in Fig. 4. The electric grinder was mounted in a tool holder with two ad- justable pivot screws. The center of the grinder ball was well aligned with the help of the conic groove of the alignment com- ponents. Having aligned the grinder ball, two adjustable pivot screws were tightened; after which, the alignment components could be removed. The deviation between the center coordi- nates of the ball grinder and that of the shank was about 5 m, which was measured by a CNC coordinate measuring machine. The force induced by the vibration of the machine bed is ab- sorbed by a helical spring. The manufactured spherical grind- ing tool and ball-burnishing tool were mounted, as shown in Fig. 5. The spindle was locked for both the spherical grinding process and the ball burnishing process by a spindle-locking mechanism. 63 Fig. 4. Schematic illustration of the spherical grinding tool and its adjust- ment device 3 Planning of the matrix experiment 3.1 Configuration of Taguchis orthogonal array The effects of several parameters can be determined efficiently by conducting matrix experiments using Taguchis orthogonal array 8. To match the aforementioned spherical grinding pa- rameters, the abrasive material of the grinder ball (with the diam- eter of 10 mm), the feed rate, the depth of grinding, and the revolution of the electric grinder were selected as the four experi- mental factors (parameters) and designated as factor A to D (see Table 1) in this research. Three levels (settings) for each factor were configured to cover the range of interest, and were identi- Fig. 5. a Photo of the spherical grinding tool b Photo of the ball burnishing tool Table 1.

Three types of abrasive materials, namely silicon carbide (SiC), white aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 , WA), and pink aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 , PA), were selected and studied. Three numerical values of each factor were determined based on the pre-study results. The L 18 orthogonal array was se- lected to conduct the matrix experiment for four 3-level factors of the spherical grinding process. 3.2 Definition of the data analysis Engineering design problems can be divided into smaller-the- better types, nominal-the-best types, larger-the-better types, signed-target types, among others 8. The signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio is used as the objective function for optimizing a product or process design. The surface roughness value of the ground sur- face via an adequate combination of grinding parameters should be smaller than that of the original surface. Consequently, the spherical grinding process is an example of a smaller-the-better type problem. The S/N ratio, , is defined by the following equation 8: =10 log 10 (mean square quality characteristic) =10 log 10 bracketleftBigg 1 n n summationdisplay i=1 y 2 i bracketrightBigg . (1) where: y i : observations of the quality characteristic under different noise conditions n: number of experiment After the S/N ratio from the experimental data of each L 18 orthogonal array is calculated, the main effect of each factor was determined by using an analysis of variance (ANOVA) tech- nique and an F-ratio test 8. The optimization strategy of the 64 smaller-the better problem is to maximize ,asdefinedbyEq.1. Levels that maximize will be selected for the factors that have a significant effect on . The optimal conditions for spherical grinding can then be determined. 4 Experimental work and results The material used in this study was PDS5 tool steel (equiva- lent to AISI P20) 9, which is commonly used for the molds of large plastic injection products in the field of automobile com- ponents and domestic appliances. The hardness of this material is about HRC33 (HS46) 9. One specific advantage of this ma- terial is that after machining, the mold can be directly used for further finishing processes without heat treatment due to its special pre-treatment. The specimens were designed and manu- factured so that they could be mounted on a dynamometer to measure the reaction force. The PDS5 specimen was roughly ma- chined and then mounted on the dynamometer to carry out the fine milling on a three-axis machining center made by Yang- Iron Company (type MV-3A), equipped with a FUNUC Com- pany NC-controller (type 0M) 10. The pre-machined surface roughness was measured, using Hommelwerke T4000 equip- ment, to be about 1.6 m. Figure 6 shows the experimental set-up of the spherical grinding process. A MP10 touch-trigger probe made by the Renishaw Company was also integrated with the machining center tool magazine to measure and determine the coordinated origin of the specimen to be ground. The NC codes needed for the ball-burnishing path were generated by PowerMILL CAM software. These codes can be transmitted to the CNC controller of the machining center via RS232 serial interface. Table 2 summarizes the measured ground surface roughness value R a and the calculated S/N ratio of each L 18 orthogonal ar- ray using Eq. 1, after having executed the 18 matrix experiments. The average S/N ratio for each level of the four factors can be obtained, as listed in Table 3, by taking the numerical values pro- vided in Table 2. The average S/N ratio for each level of the four factors is shown graphically in Fig. 7. Fig. 6. Experimental set-up to determine the op- timal spherical grinding parameters Table 2.

Since log is a monotone decreasing function, we should maximize the S/N ratio. Conse- quently, we can determine the optimal level for each factor as being the level that has the highest value of . Therefore, based 65 Fig. 7. Plots of control factor effects on the matrix experiment, the optimal abrasive material was pink aluminum oxide; the optimal feed was 50 mm/min; the optimal depth of grinding was 20 m; and the optimal revolution was 18 000 rpm, as shown in Table 4. The main effect of each factor was further determined by using an analysis of variance (ANOVA) technique and an F ratio test in order to determine their significance (see Table 5). The F 0.10,2,13 is 2.76 for a level of significance equal to 0.10 (or 90% confidence level); the factors degree of freedom is 2 and the degree of freedom for the pooled error is 13, according to F-distribution table 11. An F ratio value greater than 2.76 can be concluded as having a significant effect on surface roughness and is identified by an asterisk. As a result, the feed and the depth of grinding have a significant effect on surface roughness. Five verification experiments were carried out to observe the repeatability of using the optimal combination of grinding pa- rameters, as shown in Table 6. The obtainable surface roughness value R a of such specimen was measured to be about 0.35 m. Surface roughness was improved by about 78% in using the op- Table 4.

The ground surface was further burnished using the optimal ball burnishing parameters. A surface roughness value of R a = 0.06 m was ob- tainable after ball burnishing. Improvement of the burnished sur- face roughness observed with a 30 optical microscope is shown in Fig. 8. The improvement of pre-machined surfaces roughness was about 95% after the burnishing process. The optimal parameters for surface spherical grinding ob- tained from the Taguchis matrix experiments were applied to the surface finish of the freeform surface mold insert to evalu- ate the surface roughness improvement. A perfume bottle was selected as the tested carrier. The CNC machining of the mold in- sert for the tested object was simulated with PowerMILL CAM software. After fine milling, the mold insert was further ground with the optimal spherical grinding parameters obtained from the Taguchis matrix experiment. Shortly afterwards, the ground surface was burnished with the optimal ball burnishing parame- ters to further improve the surface roughness of the tested object (see Fig. 9). The surface roughness of the mold insert was meas- ured with Hommelwerke T4000 equipment. The average surface roughness value R a on a fine-milled surface of the mold insert was 2.15 m on average; that on the ground surface was 0.45 m Fig. 8.

Fine-milled, ground and burnished mold insert of a perfume bottle on average; and that on burnished surface was 0.07 monaver- age. The surface roughness improvement of the tested object on ground surface was about (2.150.45)/2.15 = 79.1%, and that on the burnished surface was about (2.150.07)/2.15 = 96.7%. 5 Conclusion In this work, the optimal parameters of automated spheri- cal grinding and ball-burnishing surface finishing processes in a freeform surface plastic injection mold were developed suc- cessfully on a machining center. The mounted spherical grinding tool (and its alignment components) was designed and manu- factured. The optimal spherical grinding parameters for surface grinding were determined by conducting a Taguchi L 18 matrix experiments. The optimal spherical grinding parameters for the plastic injection mold steel PDS5 were the combination of the abrasive material of pink aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ,PA),afeed of 50 mm/min, a depth of grinding 20 m, and a revolution of 18 000 rpm. The surface roughness R a of the specimen can be improved from about 1.6 mto0.35 m by using the optimal spherical grinding conditions for surface grinding. By applying the optimal surface grinding and burnishing parameters to the surface finish of the freeform surface mold insert, the surface roughness improvements were measured to be ground surface was about 79.1% in terms of ground surfaces, and about 96.7% in terms of burnished surfaces.
