Key Technologies of Finite Element Modeling of Machine Tools Based on ANSYS Platform

摘要

In order to establish the joint interface elements more quickly, and to analyze the dynamic characteristics of machine tools under different states (such as headstock at different position), the CAD model of machine tool must be divided effectively, so that the hexahedron elements with specified size can be generated in the area of the joint interfaces, so that the nodes on the joint surfaces can be coincident. Using APDL technology, the linear spring-damped elements are quickly established on the fixed joint (bolt joint interface between the bed and base) and the moving joint (guideway-slider, screw-nut). The experimental and simulation results show that the method is effective.It has considerable accuracy, and can greatly speed up the machine tool modeling, especially the processing speed of the joint interfaces.
