정강성을 고려한 5축 복합가공기의 리브 구조 최적설계

The need for high-strength, multi-axis, and multi-functional machine tools has recently increased because of part complexity and workpiece strength. However, most of the machine tool manufacturers rely on experience for a detailed design because of the shortcomings in the existing design technology. This study uses a topology optimization method to more effectively design a large multi-functional machine tool considering static stiffness. The ram, saddle, and column parts are important structures in a machine tool. Hence, they are selected for the finite element method analysis. Based on this analysis, the optimized internal rib structure for those parts is designed for desirable rigidity and weight. This structure could possibly provide the required design technology for machine tool manufacturers.
