Horizontal feed drives in heavy duty machines tools

Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper presents a methodology for calculating the horizontal feed drives in heavy duty machines tools. Mathematical models presented allow statically and dynamically sizing or verification for heavy duty machine tools such as lathes, vertical lathes, milling machines of Gantry, AFP, AF types, etc. The calculations herein are of a general nature but can accommodate to different constructive variants chosen by the machine tool designer. The paper presents some technological and constructive aspects coming from authors’ experience. Taking into account that currently the feed drives have in most of the cases independent driving, it shows the calculation only for this variant of driving specific to CNC machine tools.
