Thermal errors are the major contributor to the dimensional errors of a workpiece in precision machining. Error compensation technique is a cost-effective way to reduce thermal errors. Accurate modeling of errors is a prerequisite of error compensation. In this paper, a thermal error model was proposed by using projection pursuit regression (PPR). The PPR method improves the prediction accuracy of thermal deformation in the CNC turning center.

Thermal errors generally account for as much as 70% of the total errors of CNC machine tools, are the most contributor to the workpiece dimensional precision in precision machining process. Thermal error compensation is an effective way to decreasing thermal errors. Precision mode is a key to thermal error compensation. In this paper thermal error modeling method based on the artificial neural networks (ANN) algorithm is applied for a vertical machining center. Four key temperature points of a vertical machining center were obtained based on the temperature field analysis. A novel genetic algorism-Back propagation neural network (GA-BPN) thermal error model was proposed on the basis of four temperature points. The emulations and experiments prove that there was about a 60% increase in machine tool precision.

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.

The error compensation technique is used to improve the accuracy of non-contact high-precision measuring system. To ensure the accuracy of the high-precision non-contact four-coordinate blade profile measuring system, the geometric and thermal error compensation model is proposed in this paper. The system is composed of three orthogonal coordinate axes (X, Y and Z) and a rotation axis R. The coordinate transformation matrix can be calculated by the mathematical model of rigid body which is established according to the related theoretical analysis. Three-beam interferometer and standard gauge block are adopted to verify the geometric error of the system. In the thermal deformation error compensation, wavelet neural network model is established. The thermal and geometric error compensation methods are analyzed and the experimental results are given.

Abstract This research is devoted to one of the most fundamental problems in precision engineering: multi-axis machines accuracy. The paper presents a new approach designed to support the implementation of software error compensation of geometric, thermal and dynamic errors for enhancing the accuracy of multi-axis machines. The accuracy of multi-axis machines can be significantly improved using an intelligent integration of sensor information to perform the compensation function. The compensation process consists of the following major steps carried out on-line: continuous monitoring of the machine conditions using position, force, speed and temperature sensors mounted on the machine structure. Error forecasting through sensor fusion. Volumetric error synthesis and software compensation. To improve the effectiveness of error modeling, an artificial neural network is extensively applied. Implemented on a turning center, the compensation approach has enabled improvement of the machine accuracy by reducing the maximum dimensional error from 70 μm initially to less than 4 μm.

Thermal deformations of machine tool are among the most significant error source of machining errors. Most of current thermal error modeling researches is about 3-axies machine tool, highly reliant on collected date, which could not predict thermal errors in design stage. In This paper, in order to estimate the thermal error of a 4-axise horizontal machining center. A thermal error prediction method in machine tool design stage is proposed. Thermal errors in workspace in different working condition are illustrated through numerical simulation and volumetric error model. Verification experiments shows the outcomes of this prediction method are basically correct.
