【 摘 要 】

In this paper we present a technological problem encountered in the machining accuracy of the parts for aerospace made of aluminum alloy extruded profile with length up to 10 meters. Those parts have very tight tolerances and on milling process appear several factors that influence the repeatability of machining processes. Several factors must be considered when developing the machining process for a specific part, including: establishing the machining strategy in relation with piece geometric complexity, analysis of machined parts through coordinate measuring machine and statistical analysis, to determinate the proper machining strategy for obtaining parts in tolerance. Through several tests and recording all dimensions changes during the milling process, will be modified the machining strategy. By analysing the machining strategy at different lengths of extrusions and records of dimensions fluctuations along the processing chain has been created a proper machine strategy which will obtain a repeatability of the machining process.
