Abstract

The existing parameter optimization methods tend to fall into local optimization, and it is difficult to balance the contradiction between machining time and deformation, resulting in low machining efficiency and unstable surface quality. To address the above problems, a multi-objective optimization method combining the black hole algorithm and continuous ant colony algorithm (BH-ACOR) is proposed. In terms of the algorithm, the black hole mechanism is introduced to, divide the solution file into "black holes" (the first k superior solutions) and "planets" (the last m inferior solutions), the exploration ability of the solution space is improved through the global search of the planets to the black holes and the local perturbation strategy of the black holes. A normalized weighted objective function is defined to balance the time efficiency and the weighting requirements of aerospace blade milling. Finally, the algorithm is simulated using MATLAB, compare with the traditional methods. The BH-ACOR algorithm reduces the machining time by 17.3%, reduces the amount of deformation by 15.6%, and improves the convergence speed by 22%, which verifies its effectiveness and engineering applicability in complex multi-objective optimization.
