Abstract
In high speed machining, friction between the moving parts, generates heat. One of the major causes of thermal errors in linear axes is the heat generated in ball screw during operation at high speed. Thermal errors affect the accuracy of the linear axes and can cause a deviation from the nominal machining circular motion. The subject of this paper is to study the effects of feed velocity and ball screw Preload on the accuracy of circular motion. The temperature rise in the ball screw is measured by a laser thermometer. The errors in the linear and circular motions are measured by laser interferometer and ball bar. Training a neural network by the test results, thermal errors in all parts of a ball screw are predicted and compared with other test results.
