An Integrated Approach to the Design and Analysis of an Ultra-High Speed Air-Bearing Spindle
Abstract:
This paper presents an integrated approach to the design and analysis of an ultra-high speed air bearing spindle, by integrating the structural design, performance analysis and system optimization in a virtual design environment. Firstly, the ultra-high speed air bearing spindle is designed, including grooved hybrid air bearing, helical water cooling channel and built-in motor, etc; Subsequently, pneumatic hammer instability and whirl instability of air bearing are studied; The thermal-structural behaviors of the spindle system at ultra-high speeds are investigated by using structural FEA coupled CFD; Static and dynamic performance of spindle is studied to predict the stiffness, modes and natural frequencies of the spindle; Lastly, system optimizations are conducted to obtain optimal performance and dynamic behaviors of the spindle. The proposed integrated approach can be used to design an optimal ultra-high speed air bearing spindle.
