Finite Element Method (FEM)

Simulation uses FEM methods to calculate the

displacements and stresses in a machines design due to
operational loads such as: forces, pressures, to ensure
superior stability and rigidity.

Heavy-duty construction offers high rigidity with major

parts of the machine constructed of high-quality
Meehanite cast iron, which offers superior
stability. The column design is an inverted Y shape
construction for superior rigidity and stability. The
pre-tensioned Class C3 ball screws are used in all
three axes. All servo motors are directly coupled to
ball screws, increasing movement sensitivity while
dramatically reducing backlash.

Inspection

After assembling, all machines are measured and

calibrated by laser calibration, Ball Bar testing and Non
Bar Dynamic accuracy Measuring.

Optical Type Non-Bar Five-axis Machine

Tool Dynamic Accuracy Measurement and
Compensation System

This measurement technologies include measuring

and compensating the static/ dynamic backlash of
the transmission and the rotary axes. Especially static
backlash calibration, the static backlash error of
transmission axis can be compensated to 1 m, the
rotary axis static backlash error can be compensated to
0.001. Thus the machining accuracy of the machine can
be increased.
