Abstract

See full text

An ultrasonic roller burnishing system comprises a roller and a controller. The roller is configured to be pressed against a surface of a workpiece to a pressing depth, roll on the surface at a feed rate, and vibrate at an ultrasonic frequency under a back pressure. The roller is pressed and rolled by a motion unit which is driven by a drive motor. The vibrating of the roller is driven by an ultrasonic vibration unit with an input current inputted thereinto. The controller is configured to adjust at least one of the pressing depth, the back pressure, the input current and the feed rate based on an expected residual compressive stress and a real time output power of the drive motor, to generate a residual compressive stress in the workpiece which is in an expected range predetermined based on the expected residual compressive stress.
