Due to the complexity of machine tool thermal errors affected by various factors, a new combining prediction model, based on the theory of gery system GM (1,1) model, is applied to the trend prediction of machine tool thermal errors. The degree of smoothness of primary data sequence is first improved by function transform method and sequentially grey system GM (1,1) model is established; second, time series analysis model is established by remnant sequence of GM (1,1) model to amend the precision of grey system GM (1,1) model. Thus, the precision of combining prediction model is further improved. Through the prediction study on thermal error modeling in a spot NC turning center, testing results showed that combining prediction model can highly improve machine tool’s prediction precision and make it more effective for real-time compensation of machine tool thermal error.

The purpose of this research is to improve the machining accuracy of a CNC machine tool through thermal error modeling and compensation. In this paper, a thermal error model based on back propagation networks (BPN) is presented, and the compensation is fulfilled. The results show that the BPN model improves the prediction accuracy of thermal errors on the CNC machine tool, and the thermal drift has been reduced from 15 to 5 after compensation.

Thermal errors are among the most significant contributors to machine tool errors. Successful reduction in thermal errors has been realized through thermal error compensation techniques in the past few decades. The effectiveness of thermal error models directly determines the compensation results. Most of the current thermal error modeling methods are empirical and highly rely on the collected data under specific working conditions, neglecting the insight into the underlying mechanisms that result in thermal deformations. In this paper, an innovative temperature sensor placement scheme and thermal error modeling strategy are proposed based on the thermal mode concept. The modeling procedures for both position independent and position dependent thermal errors are illustrated through numerical simulation and experiments. Satisfactory results have been achieved in terms of model accuracy and robustness.

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.
