Research of deformation compensation method in laser metal deposition process of 316L stainless steel product

It is exists the problem of big product manufacturing with minimal dimensions tolerances. To solve this problem it is necessary to compensate the deformations influence. In researching of method, it became clear that deformation degree has changed and depended on size and form of part. However, the amount of deformation degree to dimension of part is still independent of size. This fact has observed after production of axis-symmetrical parts. The simple axis-symmetrical part was built up. The dimensions of part was measured, and the compensation coefficient was calculated. The dimensions of part was scaled on this coefficient for compensation of shrinkage effect. After that the experiment was repeated.

Automatic control system of the mechatronic module

The paper discusses a new approach to improving the accuracy of reproducing the task signal by a precision circular transfer table based on the implementation in the form of a mechatronic module. This design eliminates the disadvantages of the traditional design, such as backlash, failure when fixing the face-plate. The mechatronic module is a gearless connection between the face-plate and the electric motor. The new design required a new approach to the operation of the automatic tracking and stage positioning control system. In the process of stage positioning, thermal deformations occur, and therefore, a feature is the inclusion of an additional automatic control system for the cooling of an executive synchronous electric motor with permanent magnets in the rotor. The paper deals with the issue of the interrelationship between the positioning and tracking systems with the thermal deformation compensation system. Simulation of the operation of two systems has been carried out.

Research Status of Hydrostatic Bearing Technology in Machine Tool

Background: As the basis of mechanical manufacturing, large-scale machine tools are developing in the direction of improving processing accuracy, load-bearing capacity and rigidity. Hydrostatic thrust bearing, hydrostatic guide and hydrostatic ram are important components of large machine tools, with the continuous improvement of product accuracy requirements, the research on hydrostatic thrust bearing, hydrostatic guide and hydrostatic ram are more important. Objective: This paper introduces the current research on hydrostatic thrust bearing, hydrostatic guide and hydrostatic ram to express the importance of hydrostatic ram in improving the machining accuracy of machine tools. The study aims to lay a foundation for research and development of hydrostatic ram in the future. Methods: Firstly, the hydrostatic bearing technology is introduced. Secondly, the research status of hydrostatic thrust bearing, hydrostatic guide and hydrostatic ram are introduced to provide theoretical basis for improving the processing performance of rest ram. Result: Deformation compensation and thermal deformation compensation of hydrostatic ram have been studied more. Most of study focus on the accuracy of hydrostatic ram, but less on the bearing performance of hydrostatic ram. Conclusion: Breakthroughs have been made in the research on precision control and structural form of the hydrostatic bearing at home and abroad. Most scholars take the ram of Computer Numerically Control (CNC) boring and milling machines as the research object, but there are less research on the ram of vertical lathes. Therefore, the academic circle should pay more attention to the bearing performance of the hydrostatic ram of vertical lathes.

Static Deformation-Compensation Method Based on Inclination-Sensor Feedback for Large-Scale Manipulators with Hydraulic Actuation

Modern large-scale manipulators with hydraulic actuation like mobile concrete pump manipulators are increasingly used in industrial, construction, and other fields. Due to the large span of these manipulators, the static deformation accumulation to the endpoint has seriously affected the precise control of the endpoint. In this paper, we propose a static deformation-compensation method based on inclination sensor feedback for large-scale manipulators to reduce the deviation of the endpoint. Compared with the finite element method, this method does not need to consider many boundary conditions that are uncertain for flexible manipulators in most situations. It has appropriate accuracy and is universal for large-scale manipulators of different sizes and working under different loads. Based on a 24m-3R mobile concrete pump manipulator, the parametric simulation is carried out. The reliability of the static deformation-compensation method is verified, and the error is analyzed. The validity of the static deformation-compensation method is verified by comparing the theoretical endpoint position with the actual endpoint position after static deformation compensation. The compensation error under different loads is obtained, and the universality of the compensation method for different loads is verified.
