Abstract
In order to explore the influence of cutting process (CP) pretreatment on surface integrity in ultrasonic rolling process (URP), we build a composite cutting–ultrasonic rolling process (CURP) model of 7N01 aluminum alloy based on finite element (FE) software and obtain the deformation mechanism of surface material in CURP treatment through plane ultrasonic rolling experiments. The results show that under CP pretreatment at different feed rates, after URP treatment, surface roughness is reduced by more than 70% compared to after CP treatment; after CURP treatment, surface roughness increases with increasing feed rate; maximum surface microhardness reaches 185 HV, and hardened depth rises to 500 μm. Cutting depth makes the greatest difference to residual stress in CURP; both the amount and depth of residual stress increase with increasing cutting depth; when the cutting depth is 0.6 mm, the residual stress after CURP treatment reaches – 350 MPa. FE analysis reveals that during URP, the surface micro-elements will pass through three deformation zones—extrusion, impact, and recovery. The coupling of mechanical stress and thermal stress will turn the residual tensile stress caused by CP treatment into a compressive stress.
