5th International DAAAM Baltic Conference "INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING – ADDING INNOVATION CAPACITY OF LABOUR FORCE AND ENTREPRENEURS" 20–22 April 2006, Tallinn, Estonia SYNTHESIS OF VIBRO-CUTTING SYSTEMS WITH TIME AND ADAPTIVE CONTROL Akinfiev, T., Armada, M. & Viba, J. Abstract: Synthesis and production of real vibro-technical systems must take into account all kinds of parameters variations: – change of machine mechanical parameters; – change of processing media parameters; – change of machine control system parameters. For this reason systems with stable control may be used. In this paper all kinds of parameters changes were investigated for synthesis vibro-impact cutting systems. The main problem of synthesis new technological systems is to provide they motion stability. Key words: impact, technological processing, motion stability, adaptive control, synthesis. parameters is investigated for adaptive control of spring stiffness or excitation forces. 2. SIMPLE MODEL CUTTING SYSTEM OF VIBRO- Scheme of simple model with harmonic excitation in time and linear main spring is shown in Fig.1. A.sin(.t) + vt - c.x M= m 1. INTRODUCTION Cutting system has many components of motion. Part of them is generated by slow motion of machine body. Cutting head (subsystem) has one main vibro-impact motion along processing media. Such vibro-impact motion is investigated here with an objective to ensure stable processing if the main inconstant parameters are: – length of working element (due to diminishing or fracture); – thickness of chip; – hardness and dissipation of processing media; – fluctuation and delay of control system switch points; – unknown resistance forces of a system. For a system with one degree of freedom motion with random Fig.1. Simple model of a system with harmonic excitation in time and linear main spring Various models of cutting zone are examined by following elements: – Hooke’s law; – plastic zone; – failure point; – different stiffness zones; – series of braking; – constant resistance zones; – nonlinear (cubic and dry friction) resistance forces; – linear and nonlinear (cubic) processing media elastic forces. Part of them is shown in Fig. 2. – Fig. 4. [1, 2, 5 ], where: x – displacement; [-f(x)] – projection of force acting to working element (as function of displacement x). 107 0.5 - f x( ) vn x Fig. 2.

SYSTEM EXCITATION WITH MIXED Investigation of a system includes special solutions with excitation due to parametric stiffness variation, and force excitation for one degree of freedom system together with additional displacement of cleaning head, additional deformations of working element and breaking adherence (Fig. 7.). The simple equation of motion is (1) [1, 2]: The fluctuation in time of a control action was investigated in a case when system has zero gaps (Fig. 5, Fig. 6.). Investigations show that for real systems it is recommended to choose positive initial gap. 108 C3 2 [1 A sin( p t )]} x b13 x mx {C1 C 2 C 4 x b4 x 3 F 0 sign ( x ) 4 [1 sign ( x)] [1 sign ( x )] P0 sin( t ), 1 1 0.726723 0.5 (1) v n 0 0.415695 where m - mass; x - displacement; x velocity; x - acceleration; C1, C 3, C 4, stiffnesses of springs; C2 constant of additional stiffness variation; A, p, b13, F0, b4, P0 – constants.

CONCLUSION Various new models of cutting zone (mechanical hysteresis) are examined by following elements: Hooke’s law, plastic zone, failure point; - different stiffness zones; - constant resistance zones; nonlinear (cubic and dry friction) resistance forces; - linear and nonlinear (cubic) processing media elastic forces and variable system structure. From analysis of motion character follows that for adaptive systems trajectories in the phase plane do not cross, and transient process is very short. For modeling systems with random parameters the equation of motion is the same with difference that some parameters are changing in time or randomly. Mechanical problems of some systems with variable structure are discussed. 7. REFERENCES 1. Lavendelis, E. Synthesis of optimal vibro machines. Zinatne, Riga, 1970. (in Russian). 2. Viba, J.
