Modeling and Simulation of Dynamic Characteristics of the Linear Rolling Guide in Turn-Milling Centre

In order to analyze accurately the dynamic characteristics of Linear Rolling Guide during the design stage, the Linear Rolling Guide that springs and damping units imitate joints is simulated by finite element methods in this paper. The proposed method can predict the regular pattern which joint stiffness and joint span affect natural frequency and harmonic response. The research demonstrates that the method predicts well the dynamic characteristics of the Linear Rolling Guide; therefore, it can be a reference for dynamic optimization design of Linear Rolling Guide in turn-milling center.
