Abstract

A reverse compensation algorithm based on measurement results is proposed in order to control the wall thickness deviation during the production of hollow turbine blade wax patterns. By setting up a location error transmission model and a reverse adjustment model, the mathematical relationship between the measurement results of wall thickness deviation and the compensation of ceramic core locators is established. Moreover, the wall thickness deviation of a batch of wax patterns is measured by using an ultrasonic pulse reflection method. According to the measurement results, the ceramic core locators are readjusted. Furthermore, a new batch of wax patterns are produced for demonstration. The result shows that this algorithm can calculate the dimensional compensation of ceramic core locators effectively and thus provide guidance for raising the setting efficiency of hollow turbine blade wax patterns and controlling the accuracy of hollow turbine blade wall thickness.
