Abstract
SiCp/Al composites are consisted of silicon carbide granules as the enhancing phase and Al as the substrate. This material combines the advantages of aluminum alloys and SiC. Accordingly, it finds wide-ranging applications in aerospace, military, etc. Nevertheless, the development of SiCp/Al composites is impeded by difficulties of machining and high costs. In this paper, a theoretical analysis of the milling forces during longitudinal-torsional ultrasonic assisted milling (LTUAM) of SiCp/Al composites was presented. Additionally, a cutting force prediction model was constructed to afford theoretical guidance for the LTUAM test on SiCp/Al composite. The LTUAM experimental platform was constructed to enable the prediction model to be validated. By using this experimental platform, the effectiveness of the model was validated through a one-factor experiment and the experimental result demonstrated satisfactory predictive performance. Furthermore, the disparities in cutting forces between ultrasonic and traditional processing were investigated and the conclusions revealed that LTUAM can efficaciously diminish the cutting force. The investigation of LTUAM for SiCp/Al composites in this paper could provide theoretical guidance for ultrasound-assisted machining of difficult-to-machine composites. Additionally, it can to some extent facilitate the application of ultrasonic machining technology and SiCp/Al composites in a more extensive application.
