Goal is to create a load case similar to the real loading

Define action and reaction forces at the Tool Cutting Point (TCP),

defining the stiffness loop of the machine-tool

Idealise the liaison of the machine to the ground

Weight Influence on accuracy

z

Concept

What is the influence of a temperature difference on the accuracy?

Let’s say the machine-tool is set up at 8am. Room temperature is 22°C

During the day, the room temperature rises to 23°C. The machine-tool will

change its size due to dilatation. What is the influence on accuracy?

Temperature difference & Accuracy

Steps

3D parts are needed to replace bushings, for example so that the spindle

expansion can be taken into account.

As the temperature is uniform,

• there is no gradient

• no thermal coefficients are needed.

Definition of the temperature difference.

Important is the displacement difference between tool and workpiece

Concept

Find the first eigenfrequencies and eigenmodes of the machine tool.

Generally speaking, for a given energy, the higher the eigenfrequency,

the lower the amplitude.

Goal is to

Identify the eigenmodes that might influence the machining process

Find constructive modifications that will change these modes and / or

increase the corresponding frequency.

- 9 / 38-

Modal analysis

Steps

Similar to a static analysis

Define point masses replacing non-idealised parts

The liaison to the ground is very important

Concept

The machine is excited over a frequency range by a given force.

Amplitudes and phases are computed

Results accuracy depend greatly on the accuracy of the input force and

on the damping used

Very useful to determine how much an eigenmode will influence the

machining process and to get amplitudes between modes.

- 10 / 38-

Harmonic analysis

Steps

Similar to a static and modal analysis

Define frequency range and sampling.

- 11 / 38-

Harmonic analysis

Important is the displacement difference between tool and workpiece

Concept

The machine is excited by an event. The reaction of the machine-tool is

analysed

Results accuracy depend greatly on the accuracy of the input force and

on the damping used

Useful to assess the machine dynamic properties and non-linear effects

- 12 / 38-

Transient structural analysis

Steps

Define an initial state and an excitation

Damping is important to obtain realistic amplitudes

Perform the transient analysis over a given number of time steps

Example :

- 13-

Transient analysis

An initial velocity is applied to the Y-axis. The axis is then stopped. This

event excite some eigenmodes. The vibrations are then damped out.

Command control

It is possible to take into account the command control. A specific tool

box is available in ANSYS Mechanical APDL.

MOR4ANSYS – Model Order Reduction

The main idea is to reduce the size of the model by performing a so

called Model Order Reduction. Mass, Stiffness and Damping matrices

are extracted from ANSYS and then dimensionally reduced to smaller

matrices.

Principle

- 21-

MOR4ANSYS – Model Order Reduction

The dimensionally reduced matrices are then imported into Simplorer.

Simplorer permits to idealise a complex system with block

corresponding to different physics.

Application

MOR4ANSYS – Model Order Reduction

The whole machine-tool system can be idealised into simplorer:

• Command control (electrical circuits)

• Structural parts (Model Order Reduction)

All scenarios discussed before can be played with this idealisation

Advanced application - CHATTERING

MOR4ANSYS – Model Order Reduction

The Simplorer model contains :

• Command control

• Machine-tool model obtained with MOR4ANSYS

• Cutting process as mathematical model
