Cnc Machining Center

Error modeling and compensation is the most effective way to reduce thermal errors. In this paper, a novel approach to predict the thermal error of machine tool based on M-RAN is presented, clustering analysis is used to select the temperature variables, and then an easy and economical measurement system is applied to measure the temperature variables and thermal shift of CNC machining center. The thermally induced errors are estimated in real-time using the trained M-RAN network. The proposed approach is verified through error compensation test.

Thermal Error Compensation

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.

Machining Errors

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.

Thermal Error Model

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.
