Modeling and Compensation of the Thermal Error on Feed Drive System of CNC Grinding Machine

Abstract:

Thermal errors cause serious dimensional errors to a workpiece in precision machining. A feed drive system generates more heat through friction at contact areas, such as the Linear encoder and the guide, thereby causing thermal expansion which affects machining accuracy. Therefore, the thermal deformation of a Linear encoder is one of the most important objects to consider for high-accuracy machine tools. This paper analyzes the increase of the temperature and the thermal deformation of a Linear encoder feed drive system. During temperature variation is measured by using thermocouples , meanwhile, the thermal error of the guide is measured by a laser interferometer. A thermal error model is proposed in this study by using back propagation neural network (BPN). An experiment is carried out to verify the thermal error of the guide under different feed rates and environmental temperature.
