An analysis of the thermal behaviour of a high speed machine tool spindle

고속공작기계 주축의 열적거동 특성 해석

The thermal deformation of machine tool spindle influences the performance of the manufacturing systems for precision products. In this research thermal analysis of a high speed machine tool spindle with the rolling bearing and the built-in motor is carried out using Finite Difference Method. The thermal boundary conditions describing the hear generation in the bearing and built-in motor are considered in the simulation. And various convective boundary conditions are assumed with the empirical formula in the references. From the simulation results the characteristics of each element affecting the dynamic thermal behaviour of the machine tool spindle systems have been clarified. This model can be well applied to the future development of the high speed spindle systems.
