| description | Honeycomb composites (HCs) are diversely employed in aerospace, national defense and other fields owing to their remarkable spatial geometry and excellent mechanical properties. Their complex hexagonal cell structure and heterogeneous material properties cause major problems when implementing high-quality processing. Surface defects generated by processing will reduce the capability and service lifespan of the honeycomb sandwich structure. Therefore, the high quality of HCs is a topic of close attention for researchers. In this paper, the consequences of different cutting parameters of rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM) on surface quality with an ultrasonic circular knife (UCK) were studied through multiple groups of single-factor and orthogonal experiments with two-factors/four-levels and one-factor/three-levels. The single factor experiment was used to explain the effect that the degree of cutting parameters has on surface quality, and the orthogonal experiments were applied to explain the interaction between the processing parameters and the influence law of each factor on surface quality. Therefore, the reasonable cutting parameters of HCs were determined through experimental results to provide guidance for the realization of the precise and efficient machining of HCs. This study can provide a basis for the subsequent comprehensive consideration of various factors to achieve high-quality machining of HCs. |
