Abstract

The use of virtual techniques as a means of training operators and familiarizing them with the machine tools on which they work has become increasingly widespread throughout the manufacturing industry in recent years. To support the development and implementation of virtual machine tools, this paper constructs the generic mathematical models of the basic building links, joint types, and cutting tools of multi-axis serial orthogonal machine tools. The modeling methodology can support the synthesis of various machine tools with different configurations but similar functions and facilitates the processes of error analysis, numerical control data generation, parameter measurement, and cutting kinematics analysis. The validity of the modeling approach is demonstrated using a six-axis serial orthogonal machine tool for illustration purposes.
