Full-load analysis model and experimental study on the static characteristics of linear rolling guideway joints

摘要

Linear rolling guideways have been widely used in machine tools. The overall performance of machine tools is directly influenced by the linear rolling guideway characteristics. In this study, a contact model for a single ball-raceway joint surface is established based on the fundamental characteristic parameters of the joint surface, which are obtained experimentally. Based on this model, a novel full-load analysis model of the linear rolling guideway joint is proposed, and six linear rolling guideway-joint stiffness types, namely the tangential, normal compressive, and normal tensile stiffnesses and the pitch, yaw, and roll angular stiffnesses, are obtained. Testing devices are developed for the six stiffness types. The stiffnesses of the medium preloaded HJG-DA35AA, HJG-DA45AA, and HJG-DA55AA linear rolling guideways are achieved using the developed testing devices, and the results obtained from the full-load analysis model are approximately consistent with the experimental results.
