Spindle drives
Spindle is an important part of the machine tool.
It gets power from its drive unit and deliver to the work in
case of lathe and to the tool in case of drilling and milling
operations.
Spindle is used to
1. Center the workpiece (or) tool
2. Hold the workpiece (or) tool
To increase the stiffness and minimize the torsional
strain on the spindles, they are designed as stiff as
possible.
In case of lathe, when a chuck (work holding device) is
mounted on the spindle, the accuracy of rotation is
important as it affects the roundness of the workpiece.
The rotational accuracy of the spindle is mostly
dependent on the design of the bearings used and
preloading
Normally,
Feed drives
A feed drive comprises of a feed servomotor and
an electronic controller.
Feed motor has special characteristics like
constant torque and positioning.
In continuous path (contouring) operations, several
feed drives have to Work simultaneously since the
desired profile path has to be followed continuously.
The following are feed drive used in CNC machine
tools.
1. DC servomotors
