The results show that the tested Cu-Cr-Zr alloy with trace RE addition could attain higher microhardness and lower electrical conductivity to some extent after being soluted at 950 ℃ for 1 h and aged at 480 ℃. The precipitation process of secondary phase could be accelerated by cold working before ageing treatment which resulted in ageing hardening. Aged at 480 ℃ after 60% cold working, the values of electrical conductivity and microhardness improved significantly compared with that without deformation. The mixed RE （Ce ＋ Y） improved the softening resistance substantially in these trace RE additions, which could increase the soften temperature by 45 ℃.展开更多

Although several serving performances of brazed diamond wire have been reported, seldom do these studies refer to its process characteristics. Sawing performances of a brazed diamond wire are investigated and compared with those of a sintered diamond wire on a wire saw machine. The surface topographies of beads selected from the two wires are micro observed before sawing. The sawing tests are carried out in constant feed rate feeding（CFF） and constant normal force feeding（CNFF）. In CFF test, sawing force, power, and the cut depths of positions on contact curve are measured. Then, coupled with the observations of beads topographies, sawing force and its ratio, relations of power against material removal rate, and contact curve linearity are compared and discussed. In CNFF test, the sawing rates of the two wires are investigated. The results indicate that the brazed wire performs with lower sawing force（less 16% of tangential force and 28% of normal force）, more energy efficiency（nearly one-fifth of sawing power is saved）, at a higher sawing rate （the rate is doubled） and with better contact curve linearity as compared with the sintered wire. This proposed research experimentally evaluates the sawing performances of brazed diamond wire from the aspect of process parameters, which can provide a basis for popularizing the brazed diamond wire.展开更多

The preload of a wire race ball bearing is crucial in engineering applications. In this study, a more effective approach is proposed for exact determination of the wire race ball bearing preload. A new mathematical model of the preload and the starting torque of the wire race ball bearing was built using the theorem of the 3D rolling friction resistance and the non-conforming contact theory. Employing a wire race ball bearing with a 1000 mm diameter used in a specific type of aircraft simulating rotary table, the numerical analysis in MATLAB～ showed that the preload magnitude can be controlled in the range of 130–140 μm. As verification, the experimental results were in agreement with the theoretical results, and confirm the feasibility of this method. This new approach is more exact in the preload range of 10–158 μm than that computed by the numerical method reported in our previous work (Shan et al., 2007b). This implies that the present method contributes to more effectively preventing rolling noise, overturning moments and wear of the wire race ball bearing. The current research provides critical technical support for the engineering application of wire race ball bearings with large diameters.展开更多
