PROBLEM AND SOLUTION1. The Industrial issue: Turning of low pressure turbine casing

I4MS 2016: FOSTERING DIGITAL INDUSTRIAL INNOVATION IN EUROPE · 23rd and 24th of June · Amsterdam

The part: Turbine casing 1.8m, h 0.55m th 3-6mm in Inconel 718 alloy Turning in vertical lathe: vibrations limit cutting conditions + tool life Consequences: surface quality + rejected parts

PROBLEM AND SOLUTION2. Solutions


Modification of the fixture

Sensors Vibrations Actuators Counteract vibrations (Change stiffness and damping) Control algorithm Adaptive control of vibrations Clamping position and pressure Adaptive fixture Reduction set up time Automatic clamps Solution to rotation motion Embedded system (power & wireless com.)

PROBLEM AND SOLUTION3. Solutions Cedrat Technologies


Solution of active damping with MICA200M actuator Close loop command vibration damping

Solution of adaptive fixture stiffness Actuator press the casing on the fixture support increased stiffness

vibration suppressed

Results Actuation system (actuator & power supply) integrated in the fixture New designed compact components (for embedded app.)

Development of performing actuation MICA200M Adaptation from MICA series to INTEFIX application Improved performance compact actuator => New product

x 3.5 of Acceleration capabilities: 70 G acceleration

Joint development of power supply CSA 96 Power supply for magnetic actuator => New product

Compact high current (20A) power supply Contribution to INTEFIX

Design & realisation of adapted actuation system within project period Delivery of 4 MICA200M actuators & 4 CSA96 power supplies

Economical impact6. For Cedrat Technologies


Project results TRL 5. technology validated in relevant environment Improve of precision and quality of work-piece Minimisation of vibration, reducing the number of tool breakage Reduction of scraps and reworks in manufacturing

Exploitation plan ITP: Improvement of productivity +20% (1.2M€/year) • Savings/avoided wasted parts: 27k€ / 872 labour hours (reworks & scraps)

Fixture market: oriented to big and flexible work-pieces, available in 2017• Turn over: 4K€ / piece analysis + 25k€ / active clamping unit• 1-2 units / year (2017 – 2019); then 4-6 units / year

Economical impact7. For INTEFIX and the partners
