It is very crucial to accurately identify the parameters of contact dynamics in predicting the chatter stability of spindle–tool holder assemblies in machining centers. Fast and accurate identification of contact dynamics in spindle–tool holder assembly has become an important issue in the recent years. In this paper, the receptance coupling substructure approach is employed for identification the stiffness and damping of the interface in a simple manner, in which the frequency response function of the tool holder is derived from the Timoshenko beam finite elements model. A BT 50 type tool holder is adopted as an application example of the method. Although this study focuses on the contact dynamics at the spindle–tool holder interfaces of the assembly, the approach might be used for identifying the dynamical parameters of other critical interface.
