Bhutan-In aviation, aerospace, medical and other fields, titanium machined parts are widely used because of their excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. However, the surface quality of titanium machined parts directly affects their performance and service life. Therefore, the polishing process is crucial in the fabrication of titanium machined parts. This paper will focus on the importance of titanium processing parts polishing, process and how to improve the quality of polishing to discuss.
First, the importance of titanium processing parts polishing
- improve surface finish: polishing can make the surface of titanium machining parts to achieve a high degree of finish, reduce frictional resistance, improve the performance of the parts.
- Enhance corrosion resistance: polishing can eliminate small defects on the surface of titanium machined parts, reduce the corrosion rate, and extend the service life.
- Enhance the aesthetics: after polishing the surface of titanium machined parts bright, beautiful, conducive to improving the image of the product.
- Meet the requirements of precision assembly: polished titanium machined parts can meet the requirements of high-precision assembly, reduce the failure rate.
Second, titanium processing parts polishing process
- pre-treatment: remove the oxide film, oil and other impurities on the surface of titanium machined parts to ensure that the polishing effect.
- polishing: mechanical polishing or chemical polishing methods, according to the shape and size of the titanium processing parts of the choice of suitable polishing tools and polishing fluid.
- Cleaning: rinse the titanium workpiece with water after polishing to remove the residual polishing solution and impurities on the surface.
- Drying: Dry the cleaned titanium workpieces to avoid corrosion caused by moisture on the titanium workpieces.
- Inspection: the surface quality of the polished titanium workpiece inspection to ensure that it meets the technical requirements.
Third, how to improve the quality of titanium processing parts polishing
- choose the right polishing material: according to the material and surface requirements of titanium processing parts, choose the right polishing material, such as polishing paste, polishing cloth, etc. 2. control the polishing pressure: the polishing process is very easy.
- Control the polishing pressure: the polishing process should control the pressure to avoid excessive polishing resulting in surface damage.
- Keep the polishing liquid clean: replace the polishing liquid regularly to prevent the abrasive chips in the polishing liquid from scratching the surface of titanium machined parts.
- Optimize the polishing process parameters: according to the shape and size of the titanium workpiece, adjust the polishing speed, polishing time and other parameters to improve the polishing effect.
- Strengthen staff training: improve the skill level of operators to ensure the stability and consistency of the polishing process.
In short, the polishing process of titanium machined parts is of great significance in ensuring product quality. By optimizing the polishing process and improving the quality of polishing, China’s titanium processing parts manufacturing industry will better meet market demand for aviation, aerospace, medical and other fields to provide quality products.
