The closed-loop performance of a ball-screw drive is usually limited by a resonance in which the carriage oscillates in the direction of motion as the screw undergoes longitudinal and torsional deformation. By means of the finite element method (FEM), a model of ball-screw system dynamics is presented by taking into account the distributed inertia of the screw and the compliance and damping of thrust bearings, nut and coupling. Transmission ratio is modeled using DOFs (degree of freedoms) constraint equation. The model is found to accurately predict the transfer function from motor torque to carriage position. Comparing the predicted responses with experiments performed on a pair of ball-screw drives, the resonance frequency is misestimated as much as 5% in the worst case.

Piezoelectric ceramics can be used as sensors, as well as actors. The concept of a self- sensing-actuator tries to use both modes of operation in one device, allowing the economic integration of mechatronic systems. Possible fields of application are ball screws of machine tools, where wear-induced degradation of the preload can be compensated. Furthermore, the signal processing part of such a system can be used to gather information related to the condition of the ball screw. Both excitation signal generation and filtering of the measured signal have to offer high flexibility and signal fidelity. In this article the concept of a power amplifier and its corresponding signal processing system are presented.

Positioning error of the feed drive system has great influence of the machining quality. In order to guarantee the positioning accuracy, the linear grating scale is adopted to form a full-closed loop. However, due to the inner heat sources and environmental temperature variations, the linear grating scale could expand and the thermally induced positional deviation is generated. In this article, temperatures and positional deviations of the ball screw feed drive system and the linear motor feed drive system equipped with linear scales were tested. The factors that affect the positioning error were analyzed. Then, the temperatures and positioning coordinates were used as inputs to build the thermally induced positional deviation model of full closed-loop feed drive system. Based on the model, coordinate values of the machine tool were adjusted and the compensation was implemented. The testing results verified that after compensation, the positional deviations were greatly reduced.
