Full textAbstract:
Dynamic stiffness and damping of the headstock, which is a critical component of precision horizontal machining center, are two main factors that influence machining accuracy and surface finish quality. Constrained Layer Damping (CLD) structure is proved to be effective in raising damping capacity for the thin plate and shell structures. In this paper, one kind of high damping material is utilized on the headstock to improve damping capacity. The dynamic characteristic of the hybrid headstock is investigated analytically and experimentally. The results demonstrate that the resonant response amplitudes of the headstock with damping material can decrease significantly compared to original cast structure. To obtain the optimal configuration of damping material, a topology optimization method based on the Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) is implemented. Modal Strain Energy (MSE) method is employed to analyze the damping and to derive the sensitivity of the modal loss factor. The optimization results indicate that the added weight of damping material decreases by 50%; meanwhile the first two orders of modal loss factor decrease by less than 23.5% compared to the original structure.

Dynamic characteristics of numerical control (NC) machine tools, such as natural frequency and vibration property, directly affect machining efficiency and finished surface quality. In general, low-order natural frequencies of critical components have significant influences on machine tool’s performances. The headstock is the most important component of the machine tool. The reliability, cutting stability, and machining accuracy of a machining center largely depend on the structure and dynamic characteristics of the headstock. First, in order to obtain the natural frequencies and vibration characteristics of the headstock of a vertical machining center, modal test and vibration test in free running and cutting conditions were carried out by means of the dynamic signal collection and analysis system. According to the modal test, the first six natural frequencies of the headstock were obtained, which can not only guide the working speed, but also act as the reference of structural optimization aiming at frequency-shift. Secondly, by means of the vibration test, the vibration characteristics of the headstock were obtained and the main vibration sources were found out. Finally the corresponding vibration reduction plans were proposed in this paper. That provides the reference for improving the performance of the overall unit.

The paper mainly studies the thermal characteristic and methods of thermal compensation of the spindle system of a precision turning center. The three-dimensional model of spindle system is constructed and meshed by ANSYS Workbench. The boundary condition and heat source of the spindle system are computed by relevant theory and the results are applied to the finite element model. By comparing results of FEM and experiment, the boundary condition is adjusted if necessary to make the analysis results be similar to experimental results. Then the temperature field is used as a load to calculate the thermal deformation. Two ways of changing boundary condition of spindle system have been analyzed to find their influence on spindle thermal deformation, which are changing air flowing speed around headstock and setting up a cooling jacket at the front surface of the headstock respectively.

Machine tool bed, which supports headstock, tailstock and other functional components, is one of the important structure parts of machine tools. Precision grinding machine tool beds are designed by the authors with artificial granite and cast iron respectively for research. Their three-dimensional models were established via software SOLIDWORKS and then imported into the finite element software (ANSYS) to simulate for the first eight modal frequencies and the corresponding vibration modes. Simulation results show that the first eight order natural frequencies of artificial granite bed are better and the corresponding maximum amplitude of vibration modes are decreased significantly than cast iron bed. The dynamical properties of artificial granite bed are obviously better than grey cast iron bed.

With the of machine tool industry, machine tools will be developed toward high-speed, high precision machining and multi-tasking. On the other hand, machine tool coolers are the best strategy for thermal management in avoiding the thermal deformation for machine tools. However, due to energy efficient component s were raised in recent year, it’s a commonly-seen problem for improper selection for machine tool cooler only based on previous sizing experience. In this study, the temperature variation of built-in motor spindle through experimental method was examined and analyzes extensively during actual machining process under different ambient temperature for one year. After analyzing the field testing data, computer simulation for the cooling system of spindle has been conducted extensively to identify the better thermal management strategies. Besides, predictive model using regression analysis has been implemented comprehensively to analyze thermal behavior of spindle. The experimental results reveal that the machining loading is about 50-60% of rated loading and there is a strong relation between temperature variation of spindle and ambient temperature. The developed predictive model provides a reliable estimation for temperature deviation of spindle under different ambient temperature. It is a valuable information for selecting suitable machine tool cooler under different ambient temperature according to the experimental temperature data of spindle in each season.

Thermal deformation of the structure due to temperature rise in high-speed cutting process becomes a challenge that should be overcome at present for machine tools. In recent years, the technology of a real-time online thermal compensation system has been largely progressed. Although the positioning accuracy of a feed-drive system has been increased, but it still can not solve the issue of nonlinear thermal deformation of the structure. This project focuses on the study of thermal deformation within headstock, ball-screw and bearing in a four-axis horizontal machine-tool caused by heat source generation during high-speed operation. It tries to perform structure design of heat symmetry, heat isolation and cooling suppression. The goal is to achieve a heat balance structure, reduce the effect of thermal deformation on machining accuracy and promote the thermal stability of a machine tool structure. First of all, thermocouples and an infrared thermal imager were used to measure the temperature at some important locations of the spindle system and ball-screw after a long period of operation. The measured temperatures were used as the boundary conditions for numerical analysis. The heat transfer analysis was conducted for headstock, ball-screw and bearing by finite element method, and the temperature field and thermal deformation of these parts can thus be obtained. Then, heat isolation and cooling piping embedded design for headstock and bearing was conducted. The geometrical configuration and dimensions of this heat isolation structure and the setting location of the cooling pipes were modified constantly according to the analysis results from the repeated finite element simulation procedures. It is expected that the temperature distribution in a machine tool structure may reach equilibrium state and the impact of thermal deformation can be reduced. Additionally, a mechanical force was applied to this machine tool structure for numerical simulations of rigidity and strength. Finally, the numerical simulation analysis was performed to determine the deformation situation under the coupling action between both the mechanical and thermal loads. This analysis may reflect the machine tool structure under practical working conditions. The results show that the total displacement of headstock, ball-screw and bearing is mainly contributed from the thermal deformation. The structure design of heat symmetry and heat isolation can isolate the heat transfer effectively, and the accompanied cooling pipe system can remove the heat source quickly. The thermal deformation can thus be reduced. As a result, the stability and central positioning accuracy in each substructure can thus be maintained and the machine tool structure design fulfills the heat balance demand in industry.

Full textAbstract:
The introduction of CNC machines has radically changed the manufacturing industry. Curves are as easy to cut as straight lines, complex 3-D structures are relatively easy to produce, and the number of machining steps that required human action has dramatically reduced. With the increased automation of manufacturing processes with CNC machining, considerable improvements in consistency and quality can be achieved. CNC automation reduced the frequency of errors and provided CNC operators with time to perform additional tasks. CNC automation also allows for more flexibility in the way parts are held in the manufacturing process and the time required to change the machine to produce different components. In a production environment, a series of CNC machines may be combined into one station, commonly called a “cell”, to progressively machine a part requiring several operations. CNC controller is the “brain” of a CNC machine, whereas the physical configuration of the machine tool is the “skeleton”. A thorough understanding of the physical configuration of a machine tool is always a priority for a CNC programmer as well as the CNC machine tool manufacturers. This chapter starts with a historical perspective of CNC machine tools. Two typical types of CNC machine tools (i.e. vertical and horizontal machining centres) are first discussed. Tooling systems for a CNC machine tool are integral part of a CNC system and are therefore elaborated. Also discussed are the four principal elements of a CNC machine tool. They are machine base, machine spindle, spindle drive, and slide drive. What letter should be assigned to a linear or rotary axis and what if a machine tool has two sets of linear axes? These questions are answered later in the chapter. In order for readers to better comprehend the axis and motion designations, a number of machine tool schematics are given.

For a sub-micro ultra-precision turning machine using airsprings as vibration isolation elements, a 5 FOG mathematical model is established, activation f acted on the machine bed is as the input, the output are vertical displacement y1, oscillating φ1, ψ1 around the horizontal axle x and z of the machine bed, vertical displacement y2 of the main spindle box, and vertical displacement y3 of the slider. The equations for vibration system of 5 FOG are solved. The results indicate, when actuation force f ≠ 0, the outputs of all 5 FOG are increasing with the increasing of f. when activation f = 0, the outputs of all 5 FOG tend to zero. Assuming f include the vibration of machine base and an external force, when external force is equal to that of the vibration of machine base, then f = 0. The vibration of 5 FOG can be effectively isolated, so electromagnetic actuators as an external force, also as active vibration isolation elements can be used in the isolation system. Three electro-magnetic actuators arranging as triangle act as an external force, the quantity is equal to that of the base vibration, and the phase reverse. In fact ultra-precision turning machine is a complicated mechanism system and in the machining process, the headstock and horizontal-slider are in the movement, that is to say, the center of mass of the ultra-precision machine is changeable. Impossible is f = 0 for a practical control. In order to get a effective vibration isolation, fuzzy controller is used. The synthetic experiments have been done for the 5 FOG vibration system of the ultra-precision turning machine. The result of three actuations experiment that has been done in y direction indicates that the vibration of y direction, and oscillating φ1, ψ2 around the horizontal axle x and z of the machine bed are to be controlled. A work-piece of aluminum alloy has been machined using the sub-micro ultra-precision turning machine with the active vibration isolation elements, and without the active vibration isolation elements, AFM microscope graphs show the surface roughness of the work-piece machined by the former better as by the latter.

Under the Industry 4.0 framework, a plethora of digital technologies and techniques has been introduced in the Manufacturing domain. Machine tools must become more intelligent, in order to create a network of fully connected machines. By extension, this will lead to the creation of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Although these technologies provide for increased functionality of the manufacturing equipment, there are certain issues/implications, refraining engineers from integrating such technologies in the production. Therefore, in this paper, the results of a systematic literature review are presented and discussed, including the horizontal and vertical integration of such digital technologies. The contribution of this paper extends to the recognition of the opportunities emerging as well as the identified implications from a practical implementation point of view.

A machine tool is an assembly structure fitted by some moveable substructures, which the relative motion between the substructures creates normal and limit operating positions. Along with the substructures moving, the distributions of masses, stiffness and damping of the machine in space vary, leading to variety of structure distributions and dynamic properties. For exploring the dynamic properties distributions of machine tools, this paper presents a testing method under practical operational excitations, which is under operating excitations from remaining unbalanced value in the spindle, and collecting vibration signals of time and frequency at the spindle foreside at working positions. To identify resonance characteristics, a judging matrix is established by comparing vibration energy and vibration amplitude at 1st octave. By this method, MDH50 active pole horizontal machining center is tested, and the dynamic characteristics is determined. It reveals that dynamic characteristics of resonance come from the substructure independent resonance and their superposition in operating excitation. For verifying this result, FEA is conducted, in which 20 nodes brick element and spring element are applied to build the model entities and interfaces. The analysis result by FEM is consistent to the testing results. The research provides foundation for how setting up machining programs to avoid the resonance vibration of the machine in the operating.

The variation propagation in mechanical assembly is an important topic in several research fields, such as computer aided tolerancing (CAT) and product quality control. Mathematical models and analysis methods have been developed to solve this practical problem. Tolerance analysis which is based on the rigid hypothesis can be used to simulate the mass manufacturing and assembly. The state space model and stream of variation theory are mainly applied in flexible part assembly. However, in precision machine tool assembly, both tolerance design and process planning critically impact the accuracy performance, mainly because of the fact that the gravity deformation, including the part deformation and the variation in the joint of two connecting parts, cannot be ignored in variation propagation analysis. In this paper, based on the new generation GPS (Geometrical Product Specification and Verification) standards, the verification and modeling of key characteristics variation due to gravity deformation of single part and adjacent parts are discussed. The accurate evaluation of position and orientation variation taking into account form errors and gravity deformation can be solved from this model by FEM. A mathematical model considering rail error, stiffness of bearings is introduced to simulate the motion error in gravity effect. Based on this work to more accurately calculate the variation propagation considering gravity impact, a state space model describing the assembly process of machine tools is proposed. Then, in any assembly process, the final accuracy can be predicted to find out whether the accuracy is out of design requirement. The validity of this method is verified by a simulation of the assembly of a precision horizontal machining center.

The hereby presented study reports on the results of research funded by the NCBiR improvement grant. The goal of the undertaken experimental effort was to eliminate the laborious process of marking out from the technological procedure of cast machining. Marking out, even in highly automatized machining enterprises, is performed manually. It assesses casting accuracy, as well as denotes surpluses on machining surfaces. The precision of marking out is, therefore, dependent on individual performance of a given worker. Moreover, gauging casts of cylindrical (non-perpendicular) shape is highly problematic. Incorrect marking out generates quantifiable material (cast iron) and machining losses, as well as production interruptions. Herein, we present an innovative cast machining technology based on cast model scanning. Prior to machining, each body is scanned according to the technology guidelines. The subsequent comparison of the cast model and the model of the machined body affords geometrical accuracy assessment of the cast and the determination of optimal machining surpluses. The surplus verifying criteria include: machining volume minimization, tool working motions minimization, and idle tool motion minimization. Moreover, in special cases, high productive cutting (HPC) or high speed machining (HSM) optimization of cast technology, as well as elimination of superfluous procedures (e.g. milling of machining datum surfaces), are possible. The proposed comparative analysis of the aforementioned 3D models additionally affords acquisition of data for positioning (horizontal alignment) of the machined cast, e.g. the required length of technological supports. The hereby presented experimental results (obtained in an industrial setting) confirm the proposed elimination of the marking out process, thereby affording time reduction of preparatory procedures, initial assessment, and positioning of the cast for machining, as well as a decrease of machining volume by approx. 10 % (for the investigated casts). Experimental simulation results allowed us to estimate the machining volume minimization reaching up to 25 % (depending on the cast shape and the machining process specifications). Moreover, our investigation indicated a possibility of detection of casting flaws caused by insufficient surface brushing down. As the casts are painted post-brushing, the interfering sand mold remains are easily overlooked and often cause cutting-tool damage leading to costly production interruptions.

New, higher and challenging properties of new high-speed machines and high-performance machines bring up many questions connected to the design and properties of the main machine tool structures. Parameters like static stiffness, eigenfrequencies, modal damping and mass of parts may be identified as very important, and all these properties need to be improved. The most important material properties in the field of machine tools are presented in this paper. A case study based on a modification of a real horizontal machining centre is introduced. The modification consists in using a sandwich design concept in the main structural machine tool part. The sandwich concept, widely known and used in the aerospace industry and, more generally, the transportation industry, is not commonly used in machine tool design. A significant reduction of mass has been achieved by manufacturing a hybrid column with aluminum foam cores, while static stiffness has not been affected.

Abstract The normal curvature approach model is a new milling method of machining complex freeform surfaces presented in this paper based on 5-axis CNC machines. For this milling model, its key is to optimize the CL-data of whirlwind milling tool so that the symmetric rotational surface, which is generated while the whirlwind milling tool rotates, can closely approach to the surface being machined. Then, this method evidently raises the material removal rate at the point of contact and efficiently improves the machining productivity. In the paper, a new-typed whirlwind milling tool with standard-sized circular cutters is introduced, and a special 5-axis CNC horizontal bed-typed milling machine is used in manufacturing the freeform surfaces. The tool path generation algorithm about normal curvature approach milling method and its typical examples are analyzed in detail.

A PC-based precision promotion module named “Precimatics” is presented in this study, which uses a spatial error compensation algorithm to modify the G/M code of coordinates of a CNC machine tool. The spatial errors of three axes machine tools were measured by two kinds of laser interferometers (Renishaw Inc. & Optodyne Inc.) According to the American standard (ASME B 5.54) and the laser vector method with sequential step diagonal path (LDDM™), the spatial errors of machine tools, such as linear position error, horizontal straightness error, vertical straightness error, and squareness error, were obtained without time consuming. A spatial error map of machine tools was created and embedded into the “Precimatics” for error compensation. The compensated results were simulated and verified by the coordinates of numerical control (NC) code. Integrating a CAD/CAM system with the “Precimatics”, the position accuracy of micro/meso machine tools (mMTs) can be improved by spatial error compensation without changing the configuration of CNC controller.

Full textAbstract:
Logging-while-drilling (LWD) dipole sonic tools have been introduced to the industry as a supplement to monopole and quadrupole measurement because they can provide shear slowness anisotropy, which is essential for formation characterization and well completion applications. Due to the presence of the collar, which acts as a strong waveguide, the recorded formation signal is significantly affected at low frequencies. Consequently, an automated interpretation of LWD dipole sonic data re-mains a challenge. The traditional dispersive semblance-based method requires accurate estimates of parameters such as borehole size and/or mud slowness to avoid bias in the dispersion model used in the processing. Recently, a frequency-slowness domain inversion scheme has been developed that can invert for both the formation shear slowness and mud slowness by minimizing the guidance-mismatch cost function. However, this method uses an isotropic dispersion model and requires selecting narrow-band dispersion data in the low-frequency range with good-quality, which can limit the range of applicability of the method and also requires user input through-out the process. We have previously developed a physics-driven machine learning-based method to enhance the interpretation of wireline dipole sonic data. However, the LWD scenario introduces additional complexity. This work extends the method to support the interpretation of LWD dipole sonic. An anisotropic root-finding mode-search algorithm is first used to generate extensive synthetic formation flexural dispersion curves that can match dispersion measurements in strong anisotropic formations in high-angle and horizontal wells, with a known tool model. Special care needs to be taken to pick the formation flexural mode from several co-existing modes arising from the strong coupling between tool and formation. After quality control and verification, this comprehensive synthetic dataset is used to train a neural network model. We then develop an inversion-based algorithm, taking advantage of this efficient neural network model and combining it with a clustering algorithm, to reliably label and ex-tract the formation flexural mode, processed from either the modified Prony’s method, or a broadband dispersion analysis algorithm. The extraction around the formation flexural kick-in frequency is used for developing a quality control method. The strongest collar arrival, on the other hand, can be confidently removed due to the fundamental difference in its dispersion characteristics from the formation flexural mode. This novel method can automatically and efficiently label the formation flexural mode and simultaneously invert it for formation shear slowness together with other relevant parameters such as mud slowness without user intervention. Since this method is built upon an anisotropic model, it can be applied to the full frequency range of the data spectrum without the traditional isotropic model assumption. Additionally, the regression analysis of the inverted mud slownesses can further provide physical constraint to reduce uncertainties in the inverted shear slowness. The algorithm has been tested on field data showing good performance. It makes edge deployment possible so that LWD telemetry can be optimized to transmit the processed data to the surface in real-time, which is essential to leverage the advantages of the conveyance method.
