Thermal Error Modelling in CNC Machines

Article Preview

Abstract:

Latest trend in increasing the performance characteristics of precision machines is reducing error in machines. Today research is focused on Machine tool accuracy. The effect of thermal error contributes to major part of 70% of volumetric error. The present study aims to establish a new compensation method for CNC Turning centre. Selection of proper temperature variables is a great task in thermal error compensation. In this paper 3 thermal process variables namely spindle speed; temperature and time are used to create thermal error models. Using ANSYS simulation experiments are created.
