Helping the aerospace industry develop machine tools, tools, and measurement

In 2010, China's Beijing Capital Airport completed passenger throughput of 74 million passengers, second only to the US airport in Atlanta, ranking second in the world; Shanghai Pudong Airport completed 3.228 million tons of cargo and mail throughput, ranking third in the world. China's self-developed C919 large passenger aircraft project has completed the preliminary design, will be transferred to the project development stage, and has received more than 100 orders. With the promulgation of China's "Twelfth Five-Year Plan", the aerospace industry will receive greater support from the state. The market demand continues to expand and policy support continues to deepen. The huge market of China's aerospace industry has shown great attraction to the world.
At CIMT2011, exhibitors from the world's machine tool industry have come up with their own "killers" and set their sights on China's "aerospace" market.
Machine tool companies show their talents GF AgieCharmilles from Switzerland has been focusing on the aerospace industry, and its high-precision, high-complexity machine tools have met the general needs of customers in the aerospace industry. In this exhibition, GF AgieCharmilles exhibited a series of machine tools, which fully demonstrated the processing of many aerospace parts including titanium alloy impellers. Among them, FORM3000 is equipped with C-axis and A-axis on the spot, and 5-axis linkage processing of closed impellers shows the solution in the field of aerospace engine processing. CUT200 adopts Clean Cut power supply, and by optimizing the roughing and finishing strategies, the workpiece metamorphic layer is almost zero during processing, and there is no material or microstructure change, which greatly guarantees the safety of aviation parts. The vertical groove machining of the disc provides technical support.
Italian machine tool manufacturer JOBS also demonstrated its processing technology for composite materials in the aerospace industry. High-performance equipment including LINX COMPACT, LINX DUO, JOMACH, TARKUS and JOMAX can be used in the aerospace industry. Among them, LINX COMPACT high-efficiency vertical machining center with double-motorized direct-motor drive can be used for composite cover and structural parts processing, representing the most advanced technology for the processing of composite materials and new material parts. High-precision drilling and reaming system including dynamic depth control, built-in vacuum system, DUO machine with linear motor drive, dual-axis spindle head with built-in vacuum system with automatic moving dust cover, etc. A lot of applications.
Tool manufacturers have introduced a number of difficult-to-machine materials for aerospace products, such as titanium alloys, high-temperature alloys, high-strength steels, composite materials and engineering ceramics. Sandvik Coromant, a supplier of metal cutting tools from Sweden, has demonstrated its new CoroPak 11.1 new products, including CoroMill Plura, a new end mill for titanium milling, CoroDrill 452 drill for composite machining, CoroDrill 452 drill, etc., are available for carbon fiber materials and composites. A new range of end mills in the CoroMill Plura family is dedicated to aerospace parts.
Due to the high temperature resistance of the aerospace industry product parts, this puts more stringent technical requirements on the processing of heat resistant alloys. Tool manufacturing giant Walter introduced two new ISO tooling geometries - NMS and NRS troughs - designed for processing superalloys.
At the Seco Tools Spring 2011 press conference, the company's marketing director Wang Wei introduced the hard-hard end mill JHP770 & JHP780 for efficient machining of titanium alloys and superalloys; and the hard-hardened drill bits FeedMax C1 & C2 for processing composite materials. .
Active participation of measurement systems For aerospace products with high requirements on precision, safety and so on, measurement and measurement is a very important part. “Measurement is no small matter” is the best interpretation of aviation products. At this exhibition, various measurement companies also showed their latest detection technologies and solutions as well as applications in the aviation field. Hexagon exhibited three new models at the show: a standard-sized work-type measuring machine, a white light measuring system and an ultra-high-precision measuring system. The ultra-precision measuring system was imported from Leitz, Germany. This product was involved in the manufacture of Shenzhou V. Hexagon will focus on aerospace and other fields.
The new five-axis heads exhibited by Renishaw in the UK are mainly used for coordinate measuring (CMM) triggering measurements and won the MM “Most Innovative Measurement System” award at the 2010 AMB show in Stuttgart, Germany. Renishaw's REVO five-axis head/probe system has been used by Mecanizados Escribano Precision Engineering to produce complex parts for aerospace and military applications, which reduces workpiece inspection time by 80%, ensuring quality control and Test your ability.
