Finite Element Analysis on Thermal Characteristic of a High Precision Turning Center’s Headstock

Article Preview

Abstract:

Theperformances of the turning center will be influenced by its thermalcharacteristics seriously, and accurately predict thermal characteristic of themachine tool is helpful to improve the design level. The headstock of a high precision turning center has been regarded as the researchobjects, and its thermal properties and influence on the performance of the turningcenter are studied. First based the finite element analysis model that has beenconstructed, the steady temperature field distribution and thermal equilibriumtime of the headstock are calculated, and then the temperature field andthermal deformation have been calculated also, and analysis to identify thetrend of the headstock heat distortion are also been done. Some of the keyfactors on the thermal performance of turning center are also studied. Thestudy lays a foundation for the thermal error compensation of the headstock.
