Influencing Factors on Dynamic Response of Hydrostatic Guideways

Abstract:

Stiffness and damping of hydrostatic guideways are calculated by small perturbation method based on Reynolds equation in dynamic regime. The hydrostatic guideway is considered as a system which consists of the mass, the spring and the damper. The effects of some main parameters on stiffness, damping and damping ratio are analyzed which include the supply pressure, the film thickness, the pad dimension, the pressure ratio, the lubricating oil volume and the lubricating oil viscosity. The relationships between the settling time of the hydrostatic guideways and these parameters are investigated under a step load. It is shown that the slide block returns to equilibrium without overshooting under a step load, and the amplitude of the block vibration has not a maximum value under a cyclic load, due to the large damping effect( ξ>1). In addition, the settling time can be shorten with the increase of the supply pressure, the film thickness and the lubricating oil volume, and also with the decrease of the pressure ratio and the lubricating oil viscosity. The settling time get the shortest value when recess parameter( α) is 0.55.
