Abstract
An integrated machining center is developed for high precision and productivity manufacturing. The developed machine is composed of the high precision spindle using ball bearings, the high stiffness bed and the three axis CNC controller with the high resolution AC servo motor. In this paper, structural and modal analysis for the developed machine are carried out to check the design criteria of machine. The analysis is carried out by FEM simulation with using the commercial software, CATIA V5, ANSYS and ARMD. The simulation model of machine is made by shell and solid finite elements. This study also presents the measurement system on the modal analysis of an integrated machining center. The weak part of the machine is found by the analytical evaluation. The results provide with the structural modification data for good dynamic behaviors. And the safety of machine is confirmed by the modal analysis of modified machine design. As this study results can be trustworthy with the analysis of ANSYS and CATIA, integrated machining center can be successfully developed.
