The crossbeam is an important part in the gantry machining center which greatly affects the machining accuracy. Four kinds of crossbeam structure for the large machining center were designed and their static and dynamic characteristics were analyzed. The optimal crossbeam structure was selected by the comprehensive performance evaluation method. Then the thicknesses of rib plates in the crossbeam were defined as the optimization parameters after conducting the sensitivity analysis. The first four natural frequencies were defined as the objective functions and the static performance and the mass were defined as the constraint conditions. The optimal sizes of the rib plates in the crossbeam were obtained by the optimization analysis. Finally the feasibility of the result was demonstrated by the simulation. The result indicated that with the mass increased only by 0.18%, the first four natural frequencies of the optimal crossbeam were increased by 19.56%, 19.45%, 19.84%, 17.05%.

Dynamic characteristics of numerical control (NC) machine tools, such as natural frequency and vibration property, directly affect machining efficiency and finished surface quality. In general, low-order natural frequencies of critical components have significant influences on machine tool’s performances. The headstock is the most important component of the machine tool. The reliability, cutting stability, and machining accuracy of a machining center largely depend on the structure and dynamic characteristics of the headstock. First, in order to obtain the natural frequencies and vibration characteristics of the headstock of a vertical machining center, modal test and vibration test in free running and cutting conditions were carried out by means of the dynamic signal collection and analysis system. According to the modal test, the first six natural frequencies of the headstock were obtained, which can not only guide the working speed, but also act as the reference of structural optimization aiming at frequency-shift. Secondly, by means of the vibration test, the vibration characteristics of the headstock were obtained and the main vibration sources were found out. Finally the corresponding vibration reduction plans were proposed in this paper. That provides the reference for improving the performance of the overall unit.

Natural frequencies and modal shapes of machine tools have position-dependent characteristics owing to their dynamic behaviors changing with the positions of moving parts. It is time-consuming and difficult to evaluate the dynamic behaviors of machine tools and their machining accuracy at different positions. In this paper, a Kriging approximation model coupled with finite element method is proposed to substitute the dynamic equations for obtaining the position-dependent natural frequencies of a machine tool, as well as relative positions between the tool and the workpiece during the machining process. Based on the proposed method, dynamic performance optimization design of the machine tool is conducted under the condition of minimum relative positions. Three case studies are illustrated to demonstrate the implementation of the proposed method.

Abstract A mathematical model of multi-objective fuzzy optimization design is described in this paper, where the volume of corona dentis and the efficiency of transmission were chosen as objective functions. The optimal confidence level λ* and the augmentation coefficient β were specified by using two-level fuzzy synthetic evaluation method. As a consequence, the fuzzy optimization design problem was converted into non-fuzzy optimization design problem which could be solved with the mixed discrete optimization technique. The numerical result would be of some reference value to the design of worm drive.

In order to process heterotype hole of workpiece precisely, an open abrasive flow polish machine is designed, and the optimization design of machine frame is done for low cost. Firstly, basing on the parameters designed with traditional ways, three-dimensional force model is set up with the soft of SolidWorks. Secondly, the statics and modal analysis for machine body have been done in Finite element methods (FEM), and then the optimization analysis of machine frame has been done. At last, the model of rebuild machine frame has been built. Result shows that the deformation angle value of machine frame increased from 0.72′ to 1.001′, the natural frequency of the machine decreased from 75.549 Hz to 62.262 Hz, the weight of machine decreased by 74.178 Kg after optimization. It meets the strength, stiffness and angel stiffness requirement of machine, reduces the weight and cost of machine.
