Measurements of forces during machining, especially thin-walled structures typical of the aviation industry, are important in the aspect of instability caused by vibration. One of the last stages of manufacturing by machining is the finishing treatment and deburring of the product's edges. Brushes with ceramic fibres are often employed in deburring, especially for large-sized elements specific to the aviation industry due to the possibility of automatic machining directly on machining centres. This study set out to analyse the effect of variable brushing conditions on axial forces and the selected surface layer properties of AW-7075 aluminium alloy. Experimental studies have examined factors such as surface roughness and topography, axial cutting force in ceramic brush treatment and surface free energy in the aspect of adhesive joints. The tested variable process parameters were the fibre material and the adjustment sleeve spring stiffness. Based on the tests, it was found that the axial force applied by the brush was more strongly connected with the spring stiffness rather than the type of bristle. For most cases, an increase in the value of free surface energy after brushing was observed compared to the initial machining which was milling.

With the projected expansion of the general aviation sector and recent breakthroughs in sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), accurately measuring emissions from novel aircraft engines powered by SAF is paramount for evaluating the role of aviation industry in emission reduction trends and environmental consequences. Current SAF research primarily centers on low blend ratios, neglecting data on 100% SAF. This study bridges this gap by experimentally determining emissions indices for gaseous pollutants (CO, CO, HC, NOx), total particulate matter (PM) counts and sizes, and non-volatile particulate matter (nvPM) number and mass concentrations from a heavy-fuel aircraft piston engines (HF-APE) using hydroprocessed esters and fatty acids-derived SAF (HEFA-SAF), adhering to airworthiness-standard sampling and measurement protocols.

With the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry, data monitoring and collecting in the manufacturing process become essential. Pointer meter reading recognition (PMRR) is a key element in data monitoring throughout the manufacturing process. However, existing PMRR methods have low accuracy and insufficient robustness due to issues such as blur, uneven illumination, tilt, and complex backgrounds in meter images.

TC17 titanium alloy is widely used in the aviation industry for dual-performance blades, and linear friction welding (LFW) is a key technology for its manufacturing and repair. However, accurate evaluation of the mechanical properties of TC17-LFW joints and research on their joint fracture behavior are still not clear. Therefore, this paper used the finite element numerical simulation method (FEM) to investigate the mechanical behavior of the TC17-LFW joint with a complex micro-structure during the tensile processing, and predicted its mechanical properties and fracture behavior.

The Effect of the Chamber-Filling Ratio in Vibratory Shot Peening on Selected Surface Layer Properties of 30HGSA.

Materials (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Production Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Lublin University of Technology, 36 Nadbystrzycka, 20-618 Lublin, Poland.

This study investigated the influence of the filling ratio of the working chamber and ball diameter in vibratory shot peening (VSP) on select properties of the surface layer. The tested material was 30HGSA steel, which is effectively used in the aviation industry. The following were analyzed: the surface roughness parameters, the shape of the Abbott-Firestone curve, the bearing area ratio Smr, the microhardness distribution, the microhardness on the surface, and the residual stress σ on the surface.
