金属玻璃微细电解线切割加工技术研究

The metallic glasses pose great and wide potential in the miniaturization and precise treatment of various products, due to its outstanding properties. However, the micro processing technologies of metallic glasses are not yet mature, to a certain extent hindered its wide application. The crystallization of metallic glasses in the machining process poses a great challenge to existing processing techniques in case of impairing its properties. Micro wire electrochemical machining, in which process the materials are removed by anodic dissolutions at a low temperature, proposes an ideal way to process metallic glasses, without producing stresses and crystallization. This project will systematically study the machining characteristics of metallic glasses utilizing micro wire electrochemical machining. The electrochemical dissolving mechanism and characteristics of metallic glasses will be investigated. The distribution of front and side machining gap would be revealed by proposed “Kerf Electrodeposition” method. In order to removing the electrolytic products out of the narrow machining gap, a method for enhancing the mass transport during micro wire electrochemical machining is put forward with linear reciprocating motion of the workpiece. Moreover, the situ fabrication of sub-micro and nano wire electrode made out of metallic glasses by vertical liquid membrance electrochemical etching will be carried out. Micro wire electrochemical machining at sub-micrometer and nanometer scale will be studied either. The effects of various factors on the machining accuracy of micro wire electrochemical machining of metallic glasses will be researched. Finally, micro structures of metallic glasses with high quality can be fabricated by wire electrochemical machining. This project will provide an efficient micro fabrication method of metallic glasses and promote its engineering application.
