In the process of aluminum alloy reflector mirror processing, the structural defects of aluminum alloys present bottlenecks restricting the development of aluminum alloy reflector mirror processing technologies. Therefore, this study proposes an aluminum alloy reflector mirror processing method involving ultrasonic rolling and single-point diamond turning. The core idea of this method is to use ultrasonic rolling to pretreat the surface of the workpiece to refine the grains and increase the hardness, then perform single-point diamond turning to improve the optical reflection performance. In this study, an ultrasonic rolling cutting experiment was carried out, and the influence of the material preparation method on the microstructure and hardness of the workpiece was analyzed. An ultrasonic rolling single-point diamond turning experiment was carried out, and the influence of the material preparation method on the reflection performance of single-point diamond turning was studied. Results showed that compared with single-point diamond turning after ordinary milling, the ultrasonic rolling single-point diamond turning method has certain advantages in improving the surface reflection performance, with an increase of 5.116%. The method proposed in this study can provide new ideas for the high-quality processing of aluminum alloy reflector mirrors.

This study aims to address the issues of high tool wear rate, severe deterioration of machining accuracy, and surface integrity in thin-walled part cutting processes, which are caused by vibration. To do so, this paper proposes a thin-walled part processing vibration control method based on CFS. With aluminum alloy 6061 planar thin-walled parts as the object of study, in this paper a CFS experimental platform was established, the influence of CFS on the dynamic characteristics of the thin-walled parts was analyzed, the effects of milling force and processing vibration during thin-walled part milling were investigated. The results show that compared with UCFS, CFS can significantly reduce the acceleration response amplitude of thin-walled parts and shorten their vibration decay time. When the spraying point coincides with the hammering point, the optimal vibration suppression effect is achieved at a spraying velocity V of 13 m/s, a spraying area S of 31 mm2, and a spraying angle θ of 30°; the acceleration response amplitude decreases by 76.2%, and the vibration attenuation time decreases by 74.7%. This method can provide a certain support force and damping effect for thin-walled parts by CFS, thus reducing the milling force and machining vibration.
