Development in electric drive of machine tools

This paper examines the main requirements for the electric drive systems of a class of boring machines with digital program control. On this basis, a methodology for choice of the spindle drives is offered. The algorithm takes into account the specific features of the technological processes, the treated materials, the tools used and their wear, as well as the mechanical gear types. The experimental studies of the implemented electric drives for the spindle are presented and discussed. The research carried out and the results obtained can be used in the development of such drives for the studied class of machine tools.

Selection Of

A generalized algorithm for selection of the electric drive system for a class of machining centers with computer numerical control is presented in this paper. The successive steps for the calculation of feed and spindle drives in scraping operations are shown in tabular form. The electric drive system for the considered class of ma-chines has been studied through computer simulation and on the basis of practical implementations with developed ladder diagrams. Research carried out and the results obtained can be used in the modernization of such type of machine tools.

Chatter Marks

Ultramicrotomists live in a state of guerilla warfare with chatter. This situation is likely to be permanent. We can infer this from the history of machine tools. If set the wrong way for the particular combination of cutting tool and material, most if not all machine tools will chatter.In more than 100 years since machine tools became common, no one has evolved a practical recipe that guarantees avoiding chatter. Rather than follow some single very conservative rule to avoid chatter in all cases, machinists detect it when it happens, and change conditions until it stops. This is possible because they have no trouble telling when their cutting tool is chattering. They can see chatter marks, and they can also hear a sometimes deafening noise.
