Abstract

AbstractAccuracy requirements for machine tools demand an accurate positioning of the tool center point. Due to the heat sources, for example the friction and heat loss of motors, a machine can undergo complicated deformations during operation. While the location of mounted sources are known in advance, there are also process dependent sources, like hot chips after chip off. Furthermore many material parameters and most coupling parameters are not known exactly, or have an unknown temperature dependency.We consider a coupled thermo‐elastic finite element model of a simplified machine tool. We include uncertain heat sources and exchange parameters and present an optimal sensor placement approach to capture the sources.
