Design of X-axis Feed System of Cradle Five Axis CNC Machine Tool and its Computer Finite Element Analysis

Abstract For the design of the x-axis feed system of the cradle five axis CNC machine tool, the entity modeling is carried out by using CATIA P3 v5r21 and Auto CAD; the x-axis design of the cradle five axis CNC machine tool is carried out and the accuracy and strength are checked; the CAE analysis of the structural strength and stability is carried out by using the general structural analysis module. The DMU kinematics module is used to eliminate the interference. Optimize the structural parameters to improve the stability and accuracy of machine tools.
