Analysis of Static Dynamic Characteristics and Structural Optimization of New Structural Vertical Plus Beams

Abstract

As an important moving element in the machine structure, the crossbeam determines the dynamic characteristics of the machine in X or Y axis, which directly affects the machining efficiency and quality of the machine. The most typical expression of dynamic characteristics is acceleration, and the acceleration is inversely proportional to the mass of the moving parts, so reducing the mass of the moving parts while ensuring the stiffness is an important part of optimizing the machine structure. To address the problem that the cross beam of HIMT50 vertical machining center has structural redundancy, which leads to bad dynamic characteristics, the cross beam is firstly modeled in 3D, and its static and dynamic characteristics are analyzed by Abaqus software, and the data are applied to the optimization module to optimize the structure by topology optimization method. The optimization results show that the deformation and low-order amplitude of the crossbeam are improved with the reduction of its mass, which provides a theoretical basis and reference value for optimizing the crossbeam structure, reducing the overall manufacturing cost and improving the machining efficiency of the machine tool.
