INVESTIGATION OF THE PROCESS OF DOUBLE-SIDED GRINDING OF TORCHES OF PUSHERS WITH DIFFERENT DIAMETRERS
Urgency of the research. In machine tools, automotive, agricultural engineering, manufacturing, where it is necessary to ensure high accuracy of surfaces of parts with different diameters of faces, it is required to adhere to high requirements for the quality of geometric sizes, roughness and accuracy of molding. Target setting. Grinding of end surfaces of parts with different diameters of faces, is carried out on two-sided end-grinding machines. The specific gravity of grinding in the total complexity of mechanical processing is constantly increasing and at the present stage it is about 30 % in the machine tool industry, in the automotive industry more than 38% of the total complexity of processing. Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. On the two-sided end-grinding machines of the Saturn company (Germany) the processing of round ends of parts is done with a circular feed to the processing area. Abrasive wheels are used without calibrating plots, which requires a lot of processing to obtain the required precision, which reduces the productivity of grinding. The disadvantage of the method is that the processing of parts with different face diameters is not considered. Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. It is necessary to improve the processing efficiency of parts by developing the methods of two-sided polishing of the ends of pushers with different diameters oriented grinding wheels with and without calibrating sections, and also the rotation or without rotation of the workpiece on the calibration section, at least one revolution. The research objective. Improving the accuracy of finishing the end surfaces of parts of various diameters with grinding wheels, is achieved by the fact that the shaping of the ends of the smaller diameter is performed by the maximum diameter of the flat end of one circle, and the shaping of the end face of a larger diameter - the calibration section of the second circle, the length of which is equal to the diameter of the larger end and filled with diamond pencil, which moves along a radius, which coincides with the radius of the location of the axes of the parts in the feed drum. The statement of basic materials. In order to ensure the processing of parts in one pass and the necessary precision of processing, in large-scale and mass production, a grinding method oriented circles with calibrated sections with one-sided arrangement of ends of one diameter is used. The calibration sections are then made of different lengths, depending on the diameter, respectively, larger and smaller. Conclusions. The universal method of practical application of model of accuracy of shaping of ends of parts of different diameters, oriented grinding circles with and without calibration plots has been suggested. The presented method simplifies the grinding of the grinding wheel. It does not require special editing and allows to use regular editing.
