Abstract

Residual stress in the machined surface can significantly influence the performance of machined parts. The influence of machining parameters and tool parameters on machining-induced residual stress has drawn much research interests, yet the distribution of initial stress is also an important factor that decides the final residual stress distribution, and there is a complicated evolution process of inner stress field during machining. In this paper, an experimental research was carefully designed and performed, with the help of FEM analysis, to study the evolution process of residual stress field during successive machining. Machining process can cause much more severe influence on the stress field than pure material removal process without external loads. The surface residual stress is mainly decided by the final machining process, while the in-depth residual stress distribution depends on the machining history. Machining process introduces non-uniform plastic deformation. When the Natural Plastic Influencing Range of certain cutting process is much smaller than the existing range of initial stress, this cutting process would either enlarge or reduce the amplitude of the stress distribution, depending on the nature of the initial stress field and the cutting loads, yet it would not significantly influence the existing range of the initial residual stress.
