Finite Element Analysis of Static and Dynamic Characteristics of High-Speed Horizontal Machining Center Bed

Based on the theory of finite element and modal analysis theory, analysis of static and dynamic characteristics of the lathe bed has been done. The static displacement contours and mode natural frequency and displacement contours have been given to realize the structure optimization of lathe bed of high-speed horizontal machining center. It is shown that the bed has good static stiffness and natural frequency and the deformation of lathe bed mainly occurred in the tray conversion mechanism and the cutter location. The deformation of processing work area is small and has certain light weight space, which lay the foundation for the lightweight design of the bed.
