Resin concrete generally has good mechanical properties, excellent thermal stability and great vibration resistance, the model of the ultra-precision machining center bed is established to study the thermal stability of the resin concrete using virtual reality and collaborative simulation technology based on Pro/E and ANSYS Workbench. The main factors that affect the machine tool bed thermal deformation were found through analyzing the deformation results and the materials and restrain conditions were optimized. The results proved that the optimized machine tool bed has good thermal stability and theoretical basis was provided to improve the thermal stability of the ultra-precision machining centers.

Thermal deformation is one of the main contributors to machining errors in machine tools. In this paper, a novel approach to build an effective thermal error model for a machining center is proposed. Adaptive vector quantization network clustering algorithm is conducted to identify the temperature variables, and then one temperature variable is selected from each cluster to represent the same cluster. Furthermore, a non-linear model based on output-hidden feedback Elman neural network is adopted to establish the relationship between thermal error and temperature variables. The output-hidden feedback Elman network is adopted to predict the thermal deformation of the machining center. Back propagation (BP) neural network is introduced for comparison. A verification experiment on the machining center is carried out to validate the efficiency of the newly proposed method. Experimental verification shows that the adaptive vector quantization network clustering algorithm and output-hidden feedback Elman neural network is an accurate and effective method.
