Error Modeling and Iterative Algorithm for Compensation Instructions of Five-Axes NC Machine Tools Based on the Multi-Body System Theory

Abstract:

The machining accuracy of NC machine can be improved significantly through the error compensation. The kernels of (multi-body system)MBS theories are that the number arrays of low-order body are used to describe the topological structures which are taken to generalize and refine MBS, and the characteristic matrix are employed to represent the relative positions and gestures between any two bodies in MBS. Based on the theory of rigid body dynamics and homogeneous coordinate transformation techniques, the space error model of five-axis gantry NC machine can be established, the modified NC instructions can be obtained and it prepares well ready for the software error compensation and the practical application. Gyratory motion of five-axis NC machine will generate the coupling of translational motion, so it is different from the three-axis NC machine in the process of error compensation and we need to decoupling.
