A contour error prediction model based on LSTM (long short-term memory) is established. By inputting power, vibration signal, and temperature values, the contour error of parts can be predicted to adjust the feed speed in real time. In this way, we can obtain not only higher machining accuracy, but also higher machining efficiency and reduce the scrap rate. The model is compared with other models, and the optimal model is selected to obtain the optimal prediction effect.

Under the condition of high temperature, high pressure and severe friction, the micro-texture hole or groove will be filled with chips quickly and lose its function. The texture with a larger aperture is made on the tool rake face, which is connected with the internal cooling hole so as to achieve the functions of cooling, lubricating, reducing friction, changing chip state, reducing cutting force, prolonging tool life and reducing production cost during rough machining.

In order to improve the antiwear performance of the cylinder liner, friction and wear during the running-in process are investigated. Friction and wear tests are designed under different operating conditions, and the coefficient of friction (COF) and surface profile are measured. The influences of load and runtime on the COF and surface morphology are serious, and proper loading can reduce the running-in time. This research can provide support for theoretical research on cylinder liners.

The paper provides a comparative study of dry, wet and cryogenic turning of Ti-6Al-4V. Usually, it is recommended that titanium should be machined under lubrication, however, conventional lubricants are considered carcinogenic and health hazards. In this regard, cryogenic cooling using liquid Nitrogen provides an environment friendly option to machine Titanium based alloys.
