Dynamic characteristics of numerical control (NC) machine tools, such as natural frequency and vibration property, directly affect machining efficiency and finished surface quality. In general, low-order natural frequencies of critical components have significant influences on machine tool’s performances. The headstock is the most important component of the machine tool. The reliability, cutting stability, and machining accuracy of a machining center largely depend on the structure and dynamic characteristics of the headstock. First, in order to obtain the natural frequencies and vibration characteristics of the headstock of a vertical machining center, modal test and vibration test in free running and cutting conditions were carried out by means of the dynamic signal collection and analysis system. According to the modal test, the first six natural frequencies of the headstock were obtained, which can not only guide the working speed, but also act as the reference of structural optimization aiming at frequency-shift. Secondly, by means of the vibration test, the vibration characteristics of the headstock were obtained and the main vibration sources were found out. Finally the corresponding vibration reduction plans were proposed in this paper. That provides the reference for improving the performance of the overall unit.

The dynamic character of ball screw is the key factor that influences the machining accuracy of numerical control (NC) machine tool. To improve the dynamic characteristics of the NC machine tool, it is necessary to study the dynamic characteristics of a ball screw. In this paper, the kinematics of a ball screw mechanism (BSM) are studied to expound the dynamic process of the drive, and the load disturbance is considered to analyze the contact deformation based on the Hertzian contact theory. The velocity relationships among the ball, screw, and nut are analyzed, and the influence of the contact deformation on the dynamic characteristics is simulated and investigated experimentally. The results show that the relationships between the contact deformation, which is affected by the material characteristics, the contact angle, and the load of nut are nonlinear. The contact deformation is a factor that cannot be ignored when considering the dynamic machining error of high-speed and high-precision machine tools.

The objective of this research is to develop a novel correction mechanism to reduce the fluctuation range of tools in numerical control (NC) machining. Error compensation is an effective method to improve the machining accuracy of a machine tool. If the difference between two adjacent compensation data is too large, the fluctuation range of the tool will increase, which will seriously affect the surface quality of the machined parts in mechanical machining. The methodology used in compensation data processing is a simplex method of linear programming. This method reduces the fluctuation range of the tool and optimizes the tool path. The important aspect of software error compensation is to modify the initial compensation data by using an iterative method, and then the corrected tool path data are converted into actual compensated NC codes by using a postprocessor, which is implemented on the compensation module to ensure a smooth running path of the tool. The generated, calibrated, and amended NC codes were immediately fed to the machine tool controller. This technique was verified by using repeated measurements. The results of the experiments demonstrate efficient compensation and significant improvement in the machining accuracy of the NC machine tool.

The column of heavy double turret five-axis horizontal milling complex machining center is taken as the object of study. Solidworks is used to establish three-dimensional model of milling machining center column, the established modal is be imported into ANSYS Workbench for static and dynamic characteristics analysis. First, by comparing the column deformation, the stress and strain under no-load and load conditions, which is concluded that column design is too conservative and be optimized. Secondly, the modal analysis was carried out on the column, which provides a theoretical basis for the optimization of the column by getting the first six natural frequencies and mode shapes of cloud.

Aiming to deal with thermal error of NC machine tool which can cause reduce of machining accuracy, this paper uses an external error compensation which interacts with NC controllers and PMAC multi-axis and then revises the tool path by adding the error tested in real-time by PMAC card. The processing accuracy is improved eventually. This method can compensate machine geometric errors and thermal errors in real-time. Comparing with other methods of error preventing, this method is more effective and affordable.

The crossbeam is an important part in the gantry machining center which greatly affects the machining accuracy. Four kinds of crossbeam structure for the large machining center were designed and their static and dynamic characteristics were analyzed. The optimal crossbeam structure was selected by the comprehensive performance evaluation method. Then the thicknesses of rib plates in the crossbeam were defined as the optimization parameters after conducting the sensitivity analysis. The first four natural frequencies were defined as the objective functions and the static performance and the mass were defined as the constraint conditions. The optimal sizes of the rib plates in the crossbeam were obtained by the optimization analysis. Finally the feasibility of the result was demonstrated by the simulation. The result indicated that with the mass increased only by 0.18%, the first four natural frequencies of the optimal crossbeam were increased by 19.56%, 19.45%, 19.84%, 17.05%.
