High speed machining (HSM) technology is used in a broad range of applications to machine ferrous metals and nonmetallic material. The motorized spindle is one of the major elements to keep the machine running at high productivity. In recently years, the requirement of rotational speed and rigidity of motorized spindle is getting higher and higher in order to satisfy the high speed processing. Engineering ceramic is the ideal material for high-speed and high precision electrical spindle due to perfect characteristics of light weight, wear resistance, high temperature, high strength, and so on. So a ceramic motorized spindle is designed for higher speed and rigidity. The shaft and bearing of the motorized spindle are made from ceramic material and other parts are made from metal. Rated power of this electrical spindle is 15Kw; its torque is 14Nm and revolving speed is up to 30,000 rpm as maximum. Motorized spindle is a typical mechatronics product and its dynamic property is very important.

Engineering ceramic is the ideal material for high-speed and high precision motorized spindle due to perfect characteristics of light weight, wear resistance, high temperature, high strength, and so on. The air-gap is changed due to the influence from various factors not only the tolerance of the manufacture and assembly of motorized spindle but also different working condition. The change of air-gap impacts on vibration performance of motorized spindle. The effects of rotating speed and air-gap between the rotator and stator on these characteristic parameters of the motorized spindle are analyzed. This paper analyses the effect change of air-gap on vibration performance of motorized spindle by the simulation analysis and experimental. The results show that vibration increase with the decrease of air-gap. Meanwhile, electromagnetic vibration increase with the increase of eccentricity of motorized spindle. These results are very helpful to the structure optimization and application of the ceramic motorized spindle.

The development of technology requires higher load capacity, rotating speed, power-weight ratio, lower vibration, and noise with respect to the gear transmission. The new type microsegment gear’s tooth profile curve is composed of many microsegments. Previous researches indicate that the microsegment gear has a good static performance, while the dynamic behavior of the microsegment gear has never been investigated. This paper will focus on the dynamic performance of the gear. The profile deviation between microsegment gear and involute gear is regarded as a displacement excitation in the proposed dynamic model. The numerical analysis for three cases is conducted and the results shows that, in low-speed and heavy-load, medium-speed and medium-load conditions, microsegment gear and involute gear both exhibit a good performance, while, in high-speed and heavy-load condition, microsegment gear has a better performance than that of involute gear. The influence of backlash on the dynamic performance is also studied. It is found that the variation of backlash does not change the type of motion, but the vibration amplitude and the stability of the motion are much affected. The main idea in this paper is supposed to provide a novel method for the precision grinding of the microsegment gear.

High speed motorized spindle has become a key functional unit of high speed machine tools and effectively promotes the development of machine tool technology. The development of higher speed and more power puts forward the stricter requirement for the performance of motorized spindle, especially the dynamic performance which affects the machining accuracy, reliability, and production efficiency. To overcome the problems of ineffective loading and dynamic performance measurement of motorized spindle, a noncontact electromagnetic loading device is developed. The cutting load can be simulated by using electromagnetic force. A new method of measuring force by force sensors is presented, and the steady and transient loading force could be measured exactly. After the high speed machine spindle is tested, the frequency response curves of the spindle relative to machine table are collected at 0~12000 rpm; then the relationships between stiffness and speeds as well as between damping ratio and speeds are obtained. The result shows that not only the static and dynamic stiffness but also the damping ratio declined with the increase of speed.

A high-speed dynamic loading test is a key step when testing the dynamic performance and running quality of a high-speed motorized spindle. A loading test is very difficult to perform at high speeds. Based on the rheological behavior of the magnetorheological fluid, a novel high-speed dynamic loading system for a high-speed motorized spindle was designed, fabricated, and tested. The working principles and structure of this loading system are described. The torque model of the loader was derived based on the Herschel–Bulkley model and electromagnetic simulation using the finite element method. In addition, the torque–current relationship under different speeds was analyzed by experiments, and we found non-linear relationships between the viscosity and shear stress of the magnetorheological fluid with the shear rate. The Herschel–Bulkley model was corrected by fitting for the experimental results. The loading torque, calculated by the modified model, complied with the experimental results. This lays the foundation for the design of a high-speed transmission device based on the magnetorheological shear principle. Experiments of torque stability, temperature stability, and reusability verified the feasibility and accuracy of the proposed loading system. It provides a novel method to test the dynamic loading performance of high-speed motorized spindles.

High-speed milling (HSM) has advantages in high productivity high precision and low production cost. Thus it can be widely used in the manufacture industry. However, when the speed of spindle-tool reaches a higher speed range, the gyroscopic effect will become an important part of its stable milling. In this paper, a dynamics model of HSM system was proposed considering the influence of gyroscopic moment due to high rotating speed of end milling. Finite element model (FEM) is used to model the dynamics of a spindle-milling system. It obtains the trajectory of central point in face milling with considering gyroscopic effects through the dynamics model at high speeds. Then the cutting force model will be corrected by the trajectory of face milling. Then the stability lobes diagrams (SLD) was elaborated. Cutting thickness effects have non-negligible impact on stability limitation.

High-strength uniaxially-aligned electrospun nanofibers were prepared from PVA reinforced by modified hydrophilic multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). In order to get a homogeneous spinning solution, a one-step process using ammonium persulfate (APS) as oxidant was employed to fabricate water-soluble MWCNTs, and then they were dispersed in a 10 wt% PVA aqueous solution. We utilized this macroscopically homogeneous dispersion to produce nanofibers mat by electrospinning with an ultra-high-speed rotating cylinder as a collector. SEM image shows that the aligned degree of the fibers increases along with the increase in rotating speed. When the speed is up to 2000 rpm, the electrospun nanofibers are nearly uniaxially aligned. The tensile test results suggest that a small amount of MWCNTs dramatically enhanced the tensile strength of PVA fibers.
