Abstract Studies show that active control technology can improve system performance and meet the increasing industrial demand in diverse applications. In the present study, the dynamic characteristics of the bearing-spindle system based on active piezoelectric (PZT) restrictors, including the amplitude-frequency and phase-frequency characteristics are analyzed theoretically and experimentally. In the analysis, the influence of the pipeline model on the system characteristics is studied. Then the feasibility and effectiveness of the active control method are verified through experiments. It is demonstrated that the theoretical and experimental results are consistent. The present study is expected to provide a guideline for further investigations on the structural optimization and control law design for active hydrostatic oil-film bearing spindle systems.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the dynamics of motorized spindle, in which the tilting effect of tandem duplex angular contact ball bearing is considered. First, the quasi-static model of the duplex angular contact ball bearing is developed based on the Jones's bearing model. Then, the model is numerically solved using the Newton–Raphson method to obtain 16 stiffness coefficients (including the tilting ones). Later, a modified transfer matrix method is used to establish the dynamic model of the motorized spindle system with 16 stiffness coefficients. Finally, experiments have been performed to detect the stiffness of the tandem duplex angular contact ball bearing and the unbalance response of the motorized spindle. Results show that the modified transfer matrix method can be used to analyze the dynamic behavior of the motorized spindle supported on tandem duplex angular contact ball bearings, the tilting effect of the tandem duplex angular contact ball bearing affects the dynamic behaviors of the motorized spindle, and the theoretical dynamic characteristics using the proposed model agree with the experimental ones.

In this study, dynamic characteristics are determined based on the impulse response method, the correction of discretization errors and the identification of equivalent physical parameters, as found in the vibration model having one degree of freedom. In the experiments, the test tool is cylindrical bar shaped and made from solid tungsten carbide, and four toolholders with chucking mechanisms, including the shrinkfit type, collet type, hydraulic type, and press-fit type, are used. Since it had been previously confirmed that one of the tool preparation jigs had dynamic characteristics similar to those of an actual machine tool’s spindle, the dynamic characteristics of the jig could be measured the way the spindle system is measured in this study. From the experimental examinations, the following were clarified. (1) Chucking of the tooling system enhances the first mode vibration of the spindle system markedly. (2) The type of tool chuck used changes the dynamic characteristics of the spindle system. The trend in the dynamic stiffness corresponds well with that in the equivalent damping coefficient but is opposite to that in the equivalent stiffness. (3) The magnitude order of the dynamic characteristic parameters of the spindle system corresponds well with the inherent values of the dynamic characteristic parameters of the toolholders themselves; that is, the inherent dynamic characteristics of the tooling system can be used as the criteria to estimate the effect on the dynamic characteristics of the spindle system.

In this paper the radial and axial vibration behaviour of a rigid shaft supported by a pair of back-to-back angular contact ball bearings, mounted on elastomeric O-ring dampers, is studied. The use of elastomeric dampers for reducing the untoward effects of vibrations, due to unbalance of the shaft centre, is investigated. A computer program was developed to simulate such situations with the results presented in the form of frequency response curves and shaft centre orbits. All results showed that elastomeric O-ring dampers can successfully be used for shaft-ball bearing systems as long as the dynamic characteristics of both the system and the elastomeric O-rings are known very well.

In this effort, the nonlinear dynamics of a machine-tool spindle system supported by ball bearings is investigated. Considering the loss of contact between the inner race and ball in the ball bearing, the system is described by a set of second order nonlinear differential equations with piecewise stiffness and damping. The nonlinear responses of the system exhibit the softening behavior due to the loss of contact. As the initial preload is applied to the spindle system and the balls are fully contacting with the inner race of the bearing, the nonlinear responses of the system switche to the hardening behavior. Due to the 3/2 nonlinearity, resonance are found when the excitation frequency is close to one-third of the first natural frequency, one-half of the first nature frequency, two-third of the first natural frequency, and the first natural frequency. The route of the period-doubling bifurcation to chaos and the tori doubling process to chaos which usually occurs in the impact system are also observed in this spindle-bearing system.

Abstract The effects of the uncertainty of angular misalignment on the wear of angular contact ball bearings in the spindle system are investigated. The wear model of bearing raceways is derived based on Archard model. The angular misalignment caused by mounting error is assumed to comply with normal distribution, Monte Carlo method is used to extract angular misalignment sample. Based on the spindle system model, the spinning speed, pitch angle and contact force of ball elements in each angular contact ball bearing are calculated. The wear depth of bearing raceways is analyzed. The results show that the uncertainty of the initial angular misalignment leads to significant dispersion of wear depth of ball bearings, but the dispersion degree is related to spindle speed, angular misalignment cases, and bearing mounting position. Increasing the spindle speed increases the wear depth but decreases the wear depth dispersion.
