Abstract: In this article, the Lathe Bed of DL20-MST CNC machine tool is taken as the research object. The response surface method and optimization design of goal-driven are introduced. Combining the two methods, the size optimization design method of the Lathe Bed of NC machine tool is put forward based on the ANSYS. The design dimensions which play an important role in the static and dynamic performance of Bed are found through sensitivity analysis. And then, the goal-driven optimization design of the Lathe Bed is carried out based on the response surface method, searching for the optimal dimensions of Lathe Bed, realizing the lightweight design of the Lathe Bed of NC machine tool. In addition, the improvement on the performance of Lathe Bed after optimization is analyzed. The ideas and methods used in this paper offer a good reference for the design and production of the key parts of other similar machine tools, and have a great engineering application value.

Abstract: Landslide Body, which is a combination part between Knife Tower and Saddle, plays a significant role in the working performance of the NC (numerical control) Lathe. So it is essential to optimize Landslide Body’s structure to improve static and dynamic characteristics. At first, the structure of NC Lathe is introduced. And then, static and dynamic analysis of Landslide Body is carried out before optimization. At the last, optimization process which consists of topology and size optimization is carried out. Based on the optimization results, a new structure of the Landslide Body is generated. It is proved that both static and dynamic characteristics are improved to some extent.

Abstract: In this paper, the turning process of 45# steel was simulated and analyzed based on the metal cutting finite element analysis software DEFORM-3D. The analysis result of cutting force was gained. However, due to some reasons of the software itself, there is noise data in analysis results. Thus, it’s needed to filter the data to extract useful information. The selected short-duration and steady-state cutting force data was processed with the use of six-sigma rule through mathematical statistics analysis. As a result, some bad data were rejected. Noise data was filtered out via wavelet analysis and the processed function curve of cutting force that changes with time during the whole cutting course was gained.

Abstract: To meet the need of high precision and speed, the movable parts of a high speed machining center should be as light as possible with high stiffness, which can be realized effectively via structure topology optimization. In this paper, structure topology optimization of the spindle box of a type of machining center was carried out based on the software of OptiStruct of HyperWorks. In the course of design, a stiffness criterion was put forward to deal with the uncertainty of cutting load on a machining center. And based on the criterion, the load boundary condition of the spindle box model was defined. And a clear structure was finaly obtained in the postprocessor of OptiStruct.

Abstract: In this paper, a life-sized jaw mechanism is proposed on the basis of biological masticatory structure. Its actual parameters are defined in Solidworks according to human masticatory systems, the trajectory and position error of masticatory robot is performed via ADAMS and Matlab. The simulation results have shown that the robotic jaw is able to reproduce the human behavior. However, because the mechanism is a highly coupled and nonlinear system, the position error cannot be eliminated completely, and more sophisticated control system is required in future study.

Abstract: This paper proposes an interactive augmented reality (AR) architecture for online computer supported collaborative work (CSCW). Current CSCW applications for AR are focused on multiple users met together to collaborate on the same physical environment. The proposed architecture can provide collaboration through computer network without the need of face-to-face communication. System architecture and operation scenario are firstly constructed. AR applications for machine assembly trainingis studied. The proposed interactive AR system architecture can provide new experiences for users and both the effectiveness and efficiency for online training applications can be significantly improved.

Abstract: To meet the demand of the food texture analysis, dental training, speech therapy and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) research, a device is required to enable the reproduction of human chewing behaviour accurately. Based on the biological structure of masticatory system, this paper presented a robotic model for human chewing system in Solidworks, and analyzed the kinematics character for the masticatory robot via ADAMS. Results have showed that the robotic model is proper to reproduce the human chewing behaviour.

The optimization of Beam includes 2D and 3D topology optimization. Based on the result of topology optimization a new structure of Beam is developed. It is proved that the static and dynamic performances are both improved.

Abstract: Slider is one of the most important parts in High-Speed Horizontal Machining NC center, it plays a great role in the performance of static and dynamic. In order to assure the working accuracy and dynamic characters, slider must be analyzed to verify the reasonable of original design. According to the structure of slider and based on the theoretical and finite element simulation analysis method, a more reasonable boundary condition is carried out. To be noted that in this paper a method using the conception of combination is introduced. On the other hand the counterforce can be more accurate than before and it makes the following analysis easier.
