Thermally induced errors play a critical role in controlling the level of machining accuracy. They can represent a significant proportion of dimensional errors in produced parts. Since thermal errors cannot totally be eliminated at the design stage, active errors compensation appears to be the most economical and realistic solution. Accurate and efficient modeling of the thermally induced errors is an indispensable part of the error compensation process. This paper presents an integrated and comprehensive modeling approach for real-time thermal error compensation. The modeling process is based on multiple temperature measurements, Taguchi’s orthogonal arrays, artificial neural networks and various statistical tools to provide cost effective selection of appropriate temperature variables and modeling conditions as well as to achieve robust and accurate thermal error models. The experimental results on a CNC turning center confirm the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed approach and show that the resultant model can accurately predict the time-variant spindle thermal drift errors under various operating conditions. After compensation, the thermally induced spindle errors were reduced from 19m to less than 1 m. The proposed modeling optimization strategy can be effectively and advantageously used for real-time error compensation since it presents the benefit of straightforward application, reduced modeling time and uncertainty.

Thermal errors are the major contributor to the dimensional errors of a workpiece in precision machining. Error compensation technique is a cost-effective way to reduce thermal errors. Accurate modeling of errors is a prerequisite of error compensation. In this paper, a thermal error model was proposed by using projection pursuit regression (PPR). The PPR method improves the prediction accuracy of thermal deformation in the CNC turning center.

The performances of the high precision turning center will be influenced by the thermal characteristics of the headstock seriously, and accurately predict thermal characteristics of the headstock are helpful to improve the design level. The headstock of a high precision turning center produced by some plant has been regarded as the research objects of the paper. First the steady temperature distribution and thermal deformation of the headstock were calculated based the finite element analysis models of the headstock. Then the temperature sensitive points of the headstock were obtained by using the grey incidence analysis method. Finally the thermal error compensation model was built by using multiple linear regression method. The study lays a foundation for the thermal error compensation of the headstock of the turning center.

Industry is looking for practical means to improve the accuracy of the parts machined on CNC machines. Some artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been applied in modeling and compensating manufacturing process errors in CNC machining. However, these systems are not capable of predicting the results of a new operation if no sufficient data on a number of similar operations is available. A generalized AI approach named synergistic interactions amongst modeling, sensing and learning is proposed in this paper. Based on the AI approach, a new strategy of error compensation of workpiece dimension in CNC machining is developed and applied in a CNC turning center. Error compensation results are illustrated the effectiveness of the error compensation strategy. The learning curve shows that the error compensation confidence gradually progresses towards 100% confidence from zero along with the CNC machine operation time increasing.
