[0022] In one embodiment of the present invention, the parameters of the machining process of a magneto-rheological magic angle-step path are set as follows: a magneto-rheological rotation speed is 170 rpm; elements to be machined are two fused quartz plane elements with diameters of 100 mm; and a magic angle is 55.7°. In the embodiment, the two workpieces are tested in the traditional 90° path and the magic angle-step path, and machining results are compared.

[0023] A mid-frequency error-free machining method under a magneto-rheological polishing magic angle-step of the embodiment includes the following steps:

[0024] (1) a removal function R(x, y) is determined: a removal function test is performed by a polishing process to extract a removal function, or a known removal function is directly used;

[0025] (2) a control accuracy δ of a machine tool is acquired: a parameter list of the machine tool is read or a positioning accuracy δ of the magneto-rheological machine tool is measured;

[0026] (3) frequency spectrum filtering analysis is performed: two-dimensional Fourier transform is performed on the removal function R(x, y) to obtain a frequency spectrum function F(fx, fy), and the frequency spectrum function is filtered by the following filtering method:

[00005]$F\left(f_x,f_y\right)=F\left(R\left(x,y\right)\right)$$F_m\left(f_x,f_y\right)=\frac{2\delta f^2}{1-{\delta }^2{f}^2}.Math.{\int }_{\frac{1}{1+\delta f}}^{\frac{1}{1-\delta f}}F\left(\eta f_x,\eta f_y\right)d\eta$$\mathrm{wherein}f=\sqrt{f_x^2+f_y^2};$

[0027] (4) a magic step d is determined: a lowest amplitude position of a frequency spectrum F.sub.m(fx, fy) that undergoes filtering at a magic angle θ is analyzed, and when the following formula is met, it is determined that a corresponding included angle and a path step are optimal machining parameters,

[0028] wherein d.sub.min is the minimum step permissible for the machine tool;

[0029] (5) a magic angle-step path is generated: according to the magic step d obtained in the previous step, a line feed distance of the path is kept at d, and an included angle between a path direction and a rotary direction of a magneto-rheological polishing wheel is always kept at an angle of θ, at the moment a path equation being expressed as:

each i corresponds to a grid line in the path; and R is a radius of a travel area of the path;

[0030] (6) surface-shape error distribution is detected: surface-shape error measurement is performed on elements to be machined by using surface-shape detection equipment to obtain the surface-shape error distribution E(x, y);

[0031] (7) distribution of residence time is calculated: the path of the elements to be machined is sampled at intervals of d distance to obtain coordinates of a discrete point which serve as sampling points, and the distribution of the residence time T(x, y) at the position of each sampling point is calculated based on the surface-shape error distribution E(x, y);

[0032] (8) a distribution of a feed rate for machining V(x, y) is calculated according to the following formula:

[00008]$V\left(x,y\right)=\frac{d}{T\left(x,y\right)},$

and

[0033] (9) a numerical control code is generated according to an optimal path obtained in the step (4) and the distribution of the feed rate for machining V(x, y) obtained in the step (8), and then, a grid path under the given step is planned on the basis of adjusting a direction of a machining path or a posture of a magneto-rheological polishing wheel to allow an included angle between the polishing wheel and the path to be at the magic angle; and finally, the machine tool is controlled to implement magneto-rheological polishing on the elements to be machined.

[0034] The magic angle in the path direction, that is, the included angle θ between the path direction and the rotary direction of the polishing wheel, shall be selected within an interval of 60±10°.

[0035] The specific steps of the embodiment are as follows:

[0036] 1. The removal function is determined: surface-shape error measurement is performed on the workpieces by using surface-shape detection equipment; upon detection, the machine tool is controlled to stay for fixed time at the given positions of the workpieces; the surface-shape error is measured again; surface-shape matrix data obtained via measurements for two times are subtracted to obtain removal amount data of a magneto-rheological grinding head; and the result is divided by residence time to obtain a distribution of the removal efficiency of a magneto-rheological tool per unit time, that is, the removal function, which is expressed as R(x, y).

[0037] 2. The magic step for machining of the removal function is analyzed and calculated to obtain a magic step path for machining of the removal function (the magic step of the removal function is 0.729 mm).

[0038] 3. Initial surface-shape distributions of the two workpieces 1 and 2 are measured, which are shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, respectively. Meanwhile, the distribution of actual residence time of machining in the two paths is calculated based on the surface-shape error.

[0039] 4. The two workpieces are subjected to magneto-rheological polishing respectively according to a machining process obtained by calculation, i.e., the workpiece 1 is machined in the traditional 90° path, while the workpiece 2 is machined in the magic angle-step path; and the steps of both workpieces are 0.729 mm, which are shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, respectively. It can be seen from the figures that low-frequency errors have little difference in convergence effects under the machining in the two paths, and PVs are converged to be less than λ/20. It can be seen from the surface-shape results that the surface-shape error caused by the machining in the traditional 90° path has a significant path trajectory residue, but there is no trajectory-like mid-frequency error in a surface shape upon the machining in the magic angle-step path.

[0040] 5. The surface-shape errors of both workpieces 1 and 2 are analyzed further via a frequency spectrum, which are shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, respectively. The frequency spectrum on the top right corner is a result of an amplitude that is processed with a logarithm. There is a significant peak in surface-shape frequency spectrum information upon the machining in the traditional 90° path, representing that there is significant mid-frequency information in the surface-shape error within a path period; and a peak disappears completely in the workpiece 2, further indicating the effectiveness of the present invention. In summary, the machining results in the embodiment prove that the present invention achieves the significant actual effect.

[0041] The experiment indicates that the present invention overcomes the defect of a mid-frequency error arising from magneto-rheological equipment only by changing the path direction. The method of the present invention is conductive to improving the mid-frequency machining quality and machining efficiency, and prolonging the service life of a machine tool.

[0042] According to the machining method of the present invention, a trajectory-like mid-frequency error amplitude, theoretically, can disappear as being far lower than other machining noises only by changing an included angle between the removal function and the path, and a path step to optimal values obtained via theoretical analysis, without requiring any additional cost. The method of the present invention can implement mid-frequency error-free machining without any influence on low-frequency and high-frequency errors of elements.
