An Approach of Static Measuring Radial and Axial Runouts for Cylindrical Mills after Installation

Abstract:

An Approach that measuring static radial and axial runouts around rotational centre of spindle for cylindrical mills on milling machine was presented, its possible errors coming from imprecise location of gauge were theoretically analyzed. Milling force measuring experiments with variable feeds and cutting depths in low spindle speed was done to estimate the static runouts, these estimated values then were used to test the precision of measured values with this approach. Both results of theoretical analysis and experimental test showed that the relative errors of this measuring approach were small. This approach is to measure the runouts of installed mills, and its measured value is rather precise, its operation is simple, and it needs no special gauge. This approach can be used in study on force of cylindrical mills.
