Abstract :
In order to solve the problem of polishing superalloy in aviation and aerospace industry, proposed multi-energy combined milling of ultrasonic abrasive vibration assisted powder-mixed electric discharge machining(EDM) method. For GH188 material, experimental investigations of the influence of pulse width, pulse, peak current, abrasive density and aluminum density on the material removal rate (MRR) and surface roughness were carried out. By analyze experimental results, a set of optimized process parameters were obtained, the surface roughness can be improved to Ra0.6μm by the optimized process parameters. The experiment results indicate that ultrasonic abrasive vibration assisted powder-mixed EDM is an effective means for polishing the superalloy.
