Element Analysis

The thermal characteristics of the motorized spindle determines maching qualities and cutting capabilities, and is one of the important factors influencing the precision of the high speed NC machine tool. To improve the performance of the high speed machine tool, it is important to study the thermal characteristics of the motorized spindle. It had been studied in two ways: one is finite element analysis by Ansys software, in which the finite element analysis model was built. According to the actual working condition, the heat source and the heat transfer coefficient of every part are calculated. On this basis, the temperature field and temperature rises were gotten in Ansys software. The other way is temperature rises experiment on the motorized spindle test platform. The result was shown in the form of curve. These two ways shown the same result: the highest temperature rise appears in the area of electromotor, then followed by the rolling bearing .The result provides the necessary theory basis for optimizing the structure of the motorized spindle and establishes a basis for the research and application about the high speed spindle.

This paper presents an investigation into the losses and thermal characteristics of induction motors operated from pulse width-modulated (PWM) voltage supply in comparison to that operated from sinusoidal voltage supply. It was concluded that due to the abundant harmonics in the PWM waveforms, significant losses are induced in the motor by the inverter supply. The temperature ascends correspondingly. Experiments were conducted with no load and with load conditions. The losses and thermal characteristics were calculated using finite element analysis (FEA) and validated by the experiments.

The final manufacturing performances of the machine tools will be influenced by its thermal characteristics seriously and accurately predict thermal characteristic is helpful to improve the machine design level. Based on the analysis on factors that influence machine thermal characteristic, finite element analysis model of the headstock has been constructed, and the steady temperature field distribution and thermal equilibrium time calculation of the headstock are calculated, and then the temperature field and thermal deformation of the headstock under the action of heat and structure load have been calculated, and analysis to identify the trend of the spindle assembly and headstock heat distortion are also been done. The analysis reveals the machine processing performance influence will be influenced by the hot asymmetric, the study give priority to spindle assembly of optimization design, thermal error compensation.
