The Thermal Characteristics Analysis of a Super Hydrostatic Guideway

Abstract:

This paper established the finite element model of a hydrostatic guideway. Based on the thermal characteristic simulation analysis, the temperature field and thermal deformation of the guideway were obtained. The analysis results show that the oil film temperature increment will cause thermal deformation of the guideway and processing errors. The errors will influence the machining accuracy of machine tools. The analysis results provide certain theory basis for the research on the above influence. And then the results also give certain reference for the research on the thermal error compensation of machine tools.
