Hard and brittle materials such as quartz glass and engineering ceramics have excellent properties such as high temperature resistance, low expansion coefficient, thermal shock resistance and high chemical stability. They are widely used in aerospace, chemical, electronics, metallurgical and other industrial fields, but such toughness and The strength is different from that of the elastoplastic metal material, and the load that the material bears during processing easily exceeds the elastic limit and breakage occurs. Therefore, the conventional processing method has low processing efficiency, severe tool wear, significant breakage and chipping, and high processing cost.
Rotary ultrasonic machining is an effective special processing method for the tool with diamond abrasive grains rotating along the axis, vibrating along the axial ultrasonic frequency and moving in the feed direction to interact with the processed material to achieve material removal. Technical difficulties in the processing of hard and brittle materials. Its material removal method is different from the direct mechanical grinding of the traditional grinding wheel, but the superposition of the diamond abrasive grains on the high-frequency vibration hammering, sliding rubbing, ploughing and abrasion of the workpiece. High-speed cutting and multi-axis machining are high-performance machining technologies in advanced manufacturing. High-speed cutting has the advantages of low cutting force, low cutting temperature, high machining efficiency and good surface quality. Multi-axis machining can solve the processing bottleneck that is difficult to achieve in low-dimensional machining. , to provide an effective solution for the manufacture of components containing complex profile features. The combination of rotary ultrasonic machining, high-speed cutting and multi-axis machining can effectively expand the technical advantages of each machining process.

Researchers combine multi-axis high-speed milling with ultrasonic machining to further exploit the physical advantages of various manufacturing principles and technologies. In the multi-axis high-speed milling of elastoplastic materials, a series of preliminary basic researches were carried out. It was found that the multi-axis ball-milling tool-measurement index of the workpiece contact area changed significantly with the tool inclination angle, and the paper was submitted in the "Thirteenth Cutting and Advanced Manufacturing Technology". The Academic Conference (May 22-24, 2015, Taiyuan) reported (Key Engineering Materials, 2016, 693:788-794). Tool axis vector control is a key issue in multi-axis machining. Process optimization is a bridge for engineering applications. The inclination effect of surface quality directly affects the performance of the final molding surface. Therefore, the researchers studied the effects of dip and milling modes on surface quality, and conducted preliminary process optimization studies to refine the ideal process conditions.
