Based on the test results, rotary friction dampers were developed to mitigate the excessive lateral displacement that occurred along the direction of the weak stiffness axis of the mold transformer. In addition, shaking table tests were performed by attaching friction dampers to both sides of the mold transformer. Based on the shaking table test results, the natural frequency, mode vector, and damping ratio of the mold transformer were derived using the transfer function and half-power bandwidth. The test results indicated that the use of friction dampers can decrease the displacement and acceleration response of the mold transformer. Finally, dynamic structural models were established considering the component connectivity and mass distribution of the mold transformer. In addition, a numerical strategy was proposed to calibrate the stiffness coefficients of the mold transformer, thereby facilitating the relationship between generalized mass and stiffness. The results indicated that the analytical model based on the calibration strategy of stiffness coefficients can reasonably simulate the dynamic behavior of the mold transformer using friction dampers with regard to transfer function, displacement, and acceleration response.展开更多

The axial preloading stiffness was treated as the sum of the spindle modal stiffness and the framework elastic stiffness, based on a novel concept that magnitude of preloads can be controlled by measuring the resonant frequency of a spindle system. By employing an example of a certain type of aircraft simulating rotary table, the modal stiffness was measured on the Agilent 35670A Dynamic Signal Analyzer by experimental modal analysis. The equivalent elastic stiffness was simulated by both finite element analysis in ANSYS? and a curve fitting in MATLAB?. Results showed that the static preloading stiffness of the spindle was 7.2125×107 N/m, and that the optimal preloading force was 120.0848 N. Practical application proved the feasibility of our method.展开更多

The demand for high accuracy, high efficiency and fewer errors in the positioning of the part in precision machines increases every day, thus ensuring their high confidence and the use of aerostatic bearings enable constructive innovations to the equipment. In this context, this work presents the mechanical design, the development and error analysis of a prototype of an aerostatic rotary table. This study emphasizes the analysis of a prototype that uses the air as a working principle for reducing friction between moving parts, increasing the mechanical efficiency, and its influence of motion error is also discussed based on the experimental results. For the geometrical errors analysis, experimental tests were realized in laboratory using a DBB （Double Ballbar）. The tests are performed with only one axis moving, observing the behavior of the system for different feedrate at the C-axis.展开更多

Forward and inverse kinematic analysis is carried out by robot modeling. In order to make this robot structure more compact,first of all,X,Y and Z three moving degrees of freedom( DOF) limit stroke polishing need is calculated by using an artificial fish swarm algorithm,which analyzes dexterous workspace of this robot. Then,on the basis of the above analysis,the three DOF stroke is optimized. Simulation and polishing experimental results verify that this polishing robot with optimized stroke parameters can meet the polishing needs of faucets and other bathroom pieces.展开更多
