Laser trimming and forming grinding wheel device based on visual detection and trimming method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a grinding wheel dressing method, in particular to a laser dressing forming grinding wheel device based on visual detection and a dressing method thereof.
Background
Along with the wide application of difficult-to-process material devices such as engineering ceramics, optical glass, hard alloy and the like to various key equipment, the grinding processing of various complex profile parts is gradually increased, and meanwhile, various complex profile parts are ground by using a superhard forming grinding wheel. The superhard forming grinding wheel is a cubic boron nitride and diamond forming grinding wheel, and is shown in figure 1. It has very good grinding properties, such as strong abrasion resistance, good thermal conductivity, extremely high hardness, etc., but it is the superhard grinding wheel with the above properties that makes the dressing process very difficult. Therefore, in order to maintain the precision of the superhard grinding wheel geometry and the sharpness of the abrasive grains during the grinding process, the superhard grinding wheel needs to be dressed periodically.
Because of various types of formed grinding wheels, the adopted dressing methods are different greatly, and the most common formed grinding wheel dressing method at present adopts a manual dressing method, but the dressing efficiency of the method is low, and the profile precision after dressing is difficult to ensure. Although many new finishing processes have emerged, such as: turning dressing, grinding dressing, roller dressing, spark dressing, on-line electrolytic dressing, etc., but still suffer from a number of disadvantages, such as: the method has the advantages of poor grinding performance, low grinding wheel shape precision, low dressing efficiency, relatively high cost, high requirement on processing environment, incapability of detecting whether the formed grinding wheel is up to the standard in real time, low dressing precision and unsuitability for efficient and high-precision dressing of the formed grinding wheel.
Meanwhile, the contour detection technology of the formed grinding wheel mainly observes the effect after grinding through a super-depth-of-field three-dimensional scanning microscope or directly grinding a workpiece, and has the following defects: the former has high requirements on the use environment, and is generally required to be carried out in a dust-free environment, so the grinding wheel needs to be detached from the grinding machine for observation, the use process is troublesome, the equipment is expensive, and the use and maintenance cost is high. Although the latter method has lower use cost and is relatively easy to operate and implement than the former method, the actual situation is that the profile dressing of the formed grinding wheel cannot meet the precision requirement in the first dressing, so the grinding wheel needs to be detached from the grinding machine, dressed again and then installed on the grinding machine for grinding again to observe the effect of the ground workpiece.
At present, with the development of the visual inspection technology, an object to be inspected is imaged on a photosensitive element of a camera through an optical element, so that the image can be digitized, then the image is processed and detected through a computer, non-contact precision measurement can be realized, the interference of subjective factors of artificial detection is eliminated, and the production efficiency can be further improved through integrated automatic equipment. Meanwhile, the non-contact online shaping grinding wheel finishing of the shaping grinding wheel can be realized by combining laser finishing, the edge profile information of the shaping grinding wheel is collected by a CCD camera, the characteristic profile information of the shaping grinding wheel is identified and extracted by utilizing a computer control algorithm, then the similarity of the characteristic profile information and the edge profile characteristic of the standard shaping grinding wheel is compared, the defect area of the shaping grinding wheel to be finished is detected, a computer outputs a corresponding NC control instruction through automatic planning, a three-dimensional moving platform loaded with a laser ablation head moves along a specific track, and the defect area of the shaping grinding wheel is removed by utilizing focused high-energy laser beams, so that the shaping grinding wheel reaches a specified geometric shape, and the shaping grinding wheel is finished.
With the development of computer control technology, the visual detection technology and the laser precision machining are combined, so that the on-machine dressing process of the high-efficiency, high-precision and full-automatic forming grinding wheel can be realized, and the laser dressing technology of the forming grinding wheel is not only limited to the development of superhard grinding materials and precision, but gradually develops towards the development of intellectualization.
