Static and Dynamic Characteristics Analysis of a High Speed CNC Lathe Feeding System

Abstract

This paper focuses on the static and dynamic characteristics of a high speed CNC lathe feeding system, which is analyzed by using the Finite Element Method (FEM). In this study, the location of the maximum stress and deformation is demonstrated and checked, natural frequency and corresponding vibration modes is extracted and analyzed respectively, and the way to build finite element model is simply conducted. Furthermore, vibration testing of the feeding system in X, Y, Z-Direction is carried out respectively, both the theoretical analysis and test results show good agreement with each other. Finally, some conclusions and reviews are made based on the analysis results, which provide some reliable basis for the reasonable operation and static and dynamic characteristics’ improvement for the feeding system.
