The Impact of Different Direct-Driving Motor Design on Swivel Spindle Head

Abstract:

Swivel spindle head is a key component used in gantry type five-axis machine tool of high performance and is of great importance in its application and design. Nowadays, more and more components are manufactured by high precision CNC machine tools, such as components of spaceflight, renewable energy and automobile, etc. Therefore, high precision machine tools of multiple axes are more and more urgently demanded, while dual axis rotary head is one of the most important components for a multi-axis machine tool. Hence, it will be a key to develop dual axis spindle head that meets high precision needs. The study explores the highly responsive direct-driving motor able to drive the spindle head to rotate with multi-driving rotary technology. The dual-driving motor rotates via multi-driving units, generates torsion that magnifies and eliminates its clearance, and then drives the spindle head to rotate. Results of the test show that the completed machine tool can meet the standards of dual axis rotary head with high precision in, no matter, speed, distance, positional accuracy, repeated accuracy or maximum torque, etc.
