A simplified one-dimensional model, accounting for thermal errors related to high speed spindle of 5-axis CNC machine tools, is developed, and the relationship between heat sources of rotating spindle and thermal deformation in axial direction is found with the help of Fourier’s law for heat transfer under two different boundary conditions. Based on the theory of homogeneous coordinate transformation in robotic, the transformation matrixes between the coordinate system of kinematic pairs and the relationship between errors and compensations are obtained, through which the compensation of thermal errors in high speed motorized spindle is obtainable.

Thermal deformation is produced by heat sources in CNC machine tools. Thermal error is one of the main parts in CNC machining errors. The internal and external heat sources were introduced. The research status about thermal errors was analyzed, including identification of thermal sensitive points, precaution against thermal errors and error compensation. Finally, thermal error models were summarized and discussed.

The use of CNC machine tools signal acquisition, two-way transmission of the temperature sensor data, the ladder design and macro program guide and other methods on the implementation of a temperature sensing system of smart lubrication function. It is not only low-end CNC machine tools can compensate for deficiencies in equipment protection features and maintenance-free function, but also enhance the diversity of processing. Ultimately by analyzing the different lubrication mode, the relationship between the lubricating oil pressure and temperature and other factors, to draw the function in the lubrication in a stabilizing effect on oil pressure and control bearings and nut seat temperature. It is simple and practical, has important theoretical significance and great value.

Backlash, friction, and servo lag factors often result in protrusion or segment difference phenomenon in the moving speed reversal of a machine tool’s moving table. This phenomenon can be improved by adjusting the backlash control parameters of the machine tool controller, but the control parameters must vary with the feed rate and payload of the moving table. Therefore, this study performed the circular test process for CNC machine tools, and used different feed rate, radius, and payload motion conditions to discuss the effect of backlash control parameters on quadrant protrusions. First, this study used parameter-range reduction combined with the Taguchi method and the binary search algorithm to search for the optimal backlash control parameters in the parameter setting range, so that the machine tool could have preferable quadrant protrusion performance when executing circular tests. Afterward, the correlation of the moving table feed rate, radius, and payload to the quadrant protrusion was analyzed according to the experimental results. The results indicated that the machine tool moving table feed rate had the most apparent effect on quadrant protrusions, and the relationship between the payload and quadrant protrusion was influenced by the moving table feed rate and circular radius simultaneously.

This article proposes a robust and accurate axial thermal error model for a micro high-speed spindle. With measured temperatures, an inverse method is applied to obtain the heat source and temperature field in the spindle for demonstrating that there exists a uniform temperature distribution along the axial direction within the motor range. Hence, a simple one-dimensional heat transfer model is established to acquire the temperature and resulting thermal errors using only one measured temperature on housing surface. Jumped displacement when the spindle starts and stops and the nonlinear deformation on the bearings are satisfactorily treated in the model. The results show that the estimated thermal errors agree with the measured data for both constant and various speeds. In addition, the results reveal that spindle speed significantly affects the maximum thermal error. A short processing time is an advantage of the proposed method. The model promises effective integration in machine tools for compensating thermal errors.

Nowadays, there is a big demand on using small sized CNC machine tools, which have low price tag, wide range of implementations, low manufacturing costs and can be used for educational purposes. These machines can achieve casual manufacturing routines, like milling and drilling in applications, where there is no need for high speed performances and super quality of products. In this work, we proposed a model of CNC for these machines and analysed its components and efficiency. The model consists of three main layers: CNC system (application layer), ARM based microcomputer as CAN master and controller (connecting layer) and Servo-Drive Step Motors (actuating layer).

The frequency response function (FRF) of a CNC machine tool is composed of tool/toolholder/spindle dynamics, and plays an important role in determining the stability of high speed machining processes. This paper details the design, development and operational verification of a non-contacting, controllable, electromechanical actuator (EMA) for measuring the FRFs of tools mounted in CNC milling machines. Although standard modal testing methods are available and provide similarly accurate results, these test procedures are difficult to perform in machine shop environments and can require expensive equipment. The EMA developed as part of this research extends the capabilities of the NIST “best speeds device” to provide controllable, non-contacting excitation for modal tests on machine tools. This EMA device offers the advantages of being accurate, easy to use, and applicable to a wide variety of tools and operating conditions.
