With the increasing requirements of the machining accuracy of CNC machine tools, the impact of thermal deformation is growing. Thermal error compensation technology can predict and compensate the thermal errors in real-time, and improve the machining accuracy of the machine tool. In this paper, the research objects of thermal error compensation is expanded to the volumetric error of the machine tool, the volumetric error modeling of a three-axis machine tool is fulfilled and a compensator is developed for the compensation experiment, which provides scientific basis for the improvement of the machining accuracy.

The thermal error model of the 5-axis grinding machine tool was acquired by the homogeneous coordinate transformation, including 17 thermal error components. The thermal volumetric error real time compensation model was built by using the multiple regression analysis. The thermal error compensation control system and the temperature sensing system were developed and used as real-time compensation for the 5-axis grinding machine tool.

This paper attempts to solve the insufficient machining precision of computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools, which is induced by the thermal error of the spindle. Firstly, the relationship between machining error and thermal sensitive points was analyzed through experiments. On this basis, the backpropagation neural network (BPNN) was improved by particle swarm optimization (PSO). Next, the improved network (PSO-BPNN) was used to build a thermal error compensation (TCE) model for the spindle of machine tools. Taking VM-500T precision machine tool as the object, the temperature data were grouped through the optimization based on thermal imaging, grey relational analysis (GRA), and fuzzy clustering, to determine the temperature sensitive items that causes the thermal error. To speed up network convergence, the PSO algorithm was introduced to optimize the number of hidden layers and the number of hidden layer nodes of the BPNN, lifting the network from the local optimum trap. To enhance the generalization ability, the weights and thresholds of the BPNN were also improved by the PSO. After that, two TCE models were established for the spindle of the machine tool, respectively based on the original BPNN and PSO-BPNN. Contrastive experiments show that the PSO-BPNN TCE model achieved the better generalization ability, and improved the prediction accuracy of the machining error of the CNC machine tool.

This paper proposes a new thermal error modeling methodology called Clustering Regression Thermal Error Modeling which not only improves the accuracy and robustness but also saves the time and cost of gear hobbing machine thermal error model. The major heat sources causing poor machining accuracy of gear hobbing machine are investigated. Clustering analysis method is applied to reduce the number of temperature sensors. Least squares regression modeling approach is used to build thermal error model for thermal error on-line prediction of gear hobbing machine. Model performance evaluation through thermal error compensation experiments shows that the new methodology has the advantage of higher accuracy and robustness.

Thermal error modeling method is an important field of thermal error compensation on NC machine tools, it is also a key for improving the machining accuracy of machine tools. The accuracy of the model directly affects the quality of thermal error compensation. On the basis of multiple linear regression (MLR) model, this paper proposes an autoregressive distributed lag (ADL) model of thermal error and establishes an accurate ADL model by stepwise regression analysis. The ADL model of thermal error is established with measured data, it proved the ADL model is available and has a high accuracy on predicting thermal error by comparing with MLR models.
