Abstract The present study aims to establish a measurement method for the squareness error between the machine spindle and the machine table plane. The contact-type touch trigger probe is installed on the spindle of machine tool. When the probe ball touches the rectangle box, a signal is sent to the CNC system to record the space position of the spindle in the machine coordinate system. What this design is to pass to adopt three views of the spindle to determine its spatial location. In the light of the front view and the side view of the spindle, the tilt angle can be identified. According to the projection data, the perpendicularity of the spindle to the horizontal plane is adjusted until the tilt angle error decrease to zero. To verify this method, the corresponding tests are performed on five-axis CNC machine tool. The experimental results show that vertical error of the spindle is reduced by about 60 percent after the tilt angle is adjusted. Therefore, the proposed measurement and calibration method is effective in NC machine tool.

Abstract: In order to determine that the effect of geometric error to the machining accuracy is an important premise for the error compensation, a sensitivity analysis method of geometric error is presented based on multi-body system theory in this paper. An accuracy model of five-axis machine tool is established based on multi-body system theory, and with 37 geometric errors obtained through experimental verification, key error sources affecting the machining accuracy are finally identified by sensitivity analysis. The analysis result shows that the presented method can identify the important geometric errors having large influence on volumetric error of machine tool and is of help to improve the accuracy of machine tool economically.

Nowadays the five-axis machine tool is one of the most important foundations of manufacturing industry. To guarantee the accuracy of the complex surface machining, multi-axis linkage performance detection and compensation of five-axis machine tools is necessary. RTCP (Rotation Tool Center Point) is one of the basic essential functions for the five-axis machine tools, which can keep the tool center with the machining trajectory when five axes move synchronously. On the basis of RTCP function, a way to detect multi-axes linkage performance of five-axis machine tools is briefly introduced, and linkage error model is built in accordance with the topological structure of machine tool. Based on the feature of the linkage errors of the five-axis machine tool, the error tracing and compensation method is proposed. Some simulations and experiments that verify the error tracing method could locate the linkage error category are established. Therefore, a new attempt to detect and compensate the linkage error of the five-axis machine tool is provided in this paper.

Swivel spindle head is a key component used in five-axis machine tool of high performance and is of great importance in application and design. Nowadays, more and more components are manufactured by high performance multi-axis CNC machine tools, such as components of spaceflight, renewable energy and automobile, etc. Therefore, high performance machine tools of multiple axes are more and more urgently demanded, while Swivel spindle head is one of the most important components for a multi-axis machine tool. Hence, Swivel spindle head is one of the key to developers multi-axis machine tool . The study explores the highly responsive direct-driving motor able to drive the spindle head to rotate with multi-driving rotary technology. The dual-driving motor rotates via multi-driving units, generates torsion that magnifies and eliminates its clearance, and then drives the spindle head to rotate. Results of the test show that the completed machine tool can meet the standards of dual axis rotary head with high preformation in, no matter, speed, distance, positional accuracy, repeated accuracy or maximum torque, etc.
