    Abstract: A reliability evaluation method for CNC machine tools based on Bayes and fault tree, belongs to the technical field of reliability evaluation for CNC machine tools. First, the CNC machine tool is regarded as a system composed of subsystems, and the subsystem fault data of the same production batch is used as the prior information. Next, the joint probability density function of the failure rate of each failure subsystem is used as the likelihood function of the field data, and the logarithmic inverse Gamma distribution is used as the conjugate prior distribution of the reliability. Based on this, the joint prior distribution probability density function of Weibull distribution size and shape parameters is determined Finally, the fault tree model is established. This can increase the sample size of the prior information, eliminate the complicated sample compatibility test, and ensure the compatibility of the prior information.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a slanting-bed feed processing machine tool of a large propeller. The machine tool comprises a slanting column feed bed, a machine tool spindle, a workpiece rotary worktable, a large propeller and a bed feed mechanism. The present invention coordinates the geometrical relationship between the machine tool and the large propeller to ensure that the slanting column feed bed moves between two blades, thereby reducing the overhang length of the spindle. Different forms of workpiece rotary worktables and bed feed mechanisms are selected according to different slanting column feed beds. Four types of slanting column feed beds are designed, which can be selected, optimized and applied for different processing objects. The present invention enhances the processing stiffness of the spindle and solves the problem of poor processing quality of the large propeller caused by machine tool vibration.

    Abstract: An application method of the thermal error-temperature loop in the spindle of a CNC machine tool. This uses a bar and two displacement sensors to determine radial thermal errors of the spindle. Meanwhile two temperature sensors are used to determine the temperature of the upper and lower surfaces of the spindle box. Then, the thermal error-temperature loop is drawn with the temperature difference between two temperature sensors as the abscissa and the radial thermal error of the spindle as the ordinate. Finally, the loop is employed to analyze the mechanism of the radial thermal deformation of the spindle and the thermal error level is evaluated. Since the method is based on measured data, the results of the analysis are closer to the reality, compared to those from the numerical simulations.

    Abstract: The invention provides a method for modeling and compensating for the spindle's radial thermal drift error in a horizontal CNC lathe, which belongs to the field of error compensation technology of CNC machine tools. Firstly, the thermal drift error of two points in the radial direction of the spindle and the corresponding temperature of the key points are tested; then the thermal inclination angle of the spindle is obtained based on the thermal tilt deformation mechanism of the spindle, and the correlation between the thermal inclination angle and the temperature difference between the left and right sides of the spindle box is analyzed. According to the positive or negative thermal drift error of the two points that have been measured and the elongation or shortening of the spindle box on the left and right sides, the thermal deformation of the spindle is then classified and the thermal drift error model under various thermal deformation attitudes is then established. Then the influence of the size of the machine tool's structure on the prediction results of the model is analyzed. In real-time compensation, the thermal deformation attitude of the spindle is automatically judged according to the temperature of the key points, and the corresponding thermal drift error model is automatically selected to apply the compensation to the spindle. The method is used to distinguish the thermal deformation attitude of the spindle in a CNC lathe, and the thermal deformation mechanism is used to predict the radial thermal drift error of the spindle.

    Abstract: A magnetorheological support method for blisk processing is disclosed. In the method, a fork structure and a soft film are used to wrap magnetorheological fluid. The magnetorheological fluid is used for flow filling under certain pressure. The bulged soft film can conduct shape matching on the surface of a blisk blade. The magnetorheological fluid can be cured through magnetic field excitation, thereby ensuring the flexible support for a weak rigid component. Electric permanent magnets are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the fork structure to construct a uniform magnetic field that can realize a global excitation of magnetorheological fluid, so that the magnetorheological fluid works in a shear mode to achieve damping force controlling by magnetic field. The solid-liquid conversion of the magnetorheological fluid is controlled by an electric permanent magnet field.
