Advanced technologies for the calibration of machine tools are presented. Kinematic errors
independently of their causes are classified into errors within one-axis as intra-axis errors …

The self-excited vibration, called chatter, is one of the main limitations in metal removal
processes. Chatter may spoil the surface of the part and can also cause large reduction in …

This paper presents the state-of-the-art in machine tool main spindle units with focus on
motorized spindle units for high speed and high performance cutting. Detailed information is …

An accurate machine dynamic characterization is essential to properly describe the dynamic
response of the machine or predict its cutting stability. However, it has been demonstrated …

The dynamic performance of angular contact ball bearings is greatly affected by preload
force and preload mechanisms. In the present research, a comparison model is built to …

Thin− walled parts are widely used in many important fields because of performance and
structural lightweight requirements. They are critical parts because they usually carry the …

An accurate description of machine tool dynamics is essential for health monitoring, chatter
prevention, and improvement of manufacturing accuracy. The standard identification …

The stiffness as one of the most important dynamic characteristics of ball bearing, has a
great influence on the service performance of bearing and rotor systems. To obtain and …

Self-excited vibrations of machine tools during cutting result in process instability, poor
surface finish and reduced material removal rate. In order to obtain stability lobe diagrams to …

Mechanical micromachining has become a leading approach to fabricating complex three-
dimensional microscale features and miniature devices on a broad range of materials. To …
