Abstract:
Abstract When grinding high demands are usually placed on the geometrical tolerances of the workpiece surface. For this reason, the spindles of the grinding machines are normally designed with requirements for a minimum position change of the grinding disks due to external forces and bending moments. The design theory of these spindles is relatively well elaborated, as it represents the most frequently used solution in practice. However, there are also cases where it is necessary to grind some hard-to-reach areas, using a great ejection of the spindle. In these cases, it is necessary to reassess the required geometrical tolerances with regard to its necessity to comply with the minimal changes in the position of the grinding discs due to the great ejection. Where it is necessary to maintain high geometrical tolerances, it is necessary to ensure a greater rigidity of the spindle. This rigidity is usually improved by increasing its diameter. By doing this we also increase the weight of the spindle that is heavily ejected, and thus its deformation can occur due to gravity forces. That is why it is necessary to analyse the deflection of the spindle depending on its ejection in the course of its design. In the case we increase the diameter of the grinder spindle the possible applicable grinding disc diameter decreases, due to the growing size of its housing. Any grinding of hard-to-reach surfaces is therefore done in particular to improve the quality of the surface with low requirements on the geometrical tolerances. This article deals with the design patterns for a spindle used in axial grinding for inner rotating surfaces. The article contains a spindle design solution and an analysis of its deflections, depending on its ejection, and the size of the passive forces.

Abstract:
The three-dimensional organization of mitotic microtubules in a mutant strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been studied by computer-assisted serial reconstruction. At the nonpermissive temperature, cdc20 cells arrested with a spindle length of approximately 2.5 microns. These spindles contained a mean of 81 microtubules (range, 56-100) compared with 23 in wild-type spindles of comparable length. This increase in spindle microtubule number resulted in a total polymer length up to four times that of wild-type spindles. The spindle pole bodies in the cdc20 cells were approximately 2.3 times the size of wild-type, thereby accommodating the abnormally large number of spindle microtubules. The cdc20 spindles contained a large number of interpolar microtubules organized in a "core bundle." A neighbor density analysis of this bundle at the spindle midzone showed a preferred spacing of approximately 35 nm center-to-center between microtubules of opposite polarity. Although this is evidence of specific interaction between antiparallel microtubules, mutant spindles were less ordered than the spindle of wild-type cells. The number of noncore microtubules was significantly higher than that reported for wild-type, and these microtubules did not display a characteristic metaphase configuration. cdc20 spindles showed significantly more cross-bridges between spindle microtubules than were seen in the wild type. The cross-bridge density was highest between antiparallel microtubules. These data suggest that spindle microtubules are stabilized in cdc20 cells and that the CDC20 gene product may be involved in cell cycle processes that promote spindle microtubule disassembly.

Abstract:
The fluid–structure interaction (FSI) effect has a significant impact on the static and dynamic performance of aerostatic spindles, which should be fully considered when developing a new product. To enhance the overall performance of aerostatic spindles, a two-round optimization design method for aerostatic spindles considering the FSI effect is proposed in this article. An aerostatic spindle is optimized to elaborate the design procedure of the proposed method. In the first-round design, the geometrical parameters of the aerostatic bearing were optimized to improve its stiffness. Then, the key structural dimension of the aerostatic spindle is optimized in the second-round design to improve the natural frequency of the spindle. Finally, optimal design parameters are acquired and experimentally verified. This research guides the optimal design of aerostatic spindles considering the FSI effect.

Abstract:
Spindle is one of the most important component of machine tools because spindle’s performance including thermal property and dynamic property greatly influences the accuracy and productivity in machining process. This study investigates the effect of the application of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) to the spindle shaft on the performance of machine tool spindles. CFRP and steel spindle shafts with the same geometry were developed for fair comparison. Thermal and dynamic properties of the developed shaft and spindle unit were evaluated and compared. The experimental and simulation results showed that the CFRP spindle shaft improved the axial thermal displacement and dynamic stiffness. The axial thermal displacement was decreased to 1/3 of that of the steel spindle. The compliance was also decreased to 1/2. The design of the thermal displacement distribution around the bearing should be an important issue in the CFRP spindle for the thermal stability of the dynamic property.

Abstract:
As the fluid dynamic bearing spindles are to be actively adopted to various small form factor mobile applications, mechanical specifications for the motors have been aggressively changed to pursue the fierce information technology sector market trend. One of the major technological challenges for the spindles to be successfully employed in the applications is the reduction of power consumption since the most of the mobile applications operate with a limited power source at relatively lower voltage. Recognizing implication of the power consumption that of course affects stiffness of the spindle, few of options for mechanical designers are available but either lowering rotational speed or adopting thinner lubricant. In the present work, a novel design solution for alleviating side effect of the lower stiffness spindle is introduced and verified.

Abstract:
Verktygsmaskiner möjliggör tillverkning av materiekroppar med olika form. Svarvar är de vanligaste maskinerna för att bearbeta runda detaljer. Man kan säga att en svarvspindeln möjliggör hela skärprocessen och att den därför är den viktigaste komponenten i en svarv. En svarvaxel, eller en spindel, bearbetar det roterande ämnet med ett stationärt skärverktyg, och materialet tas bort vid skärverktygets kontakt med ämnet.Det här arbetet syftar till att konstruera en spindel som uppfyller en given kravspecifikation. Specifikationen innehåller prestandakrav, som rotationshastighet och kraft, geometri och dimensionskrav, som storlek och håldiameter, samt vilka komponenttyper som ska användas, som t.ex. motorn.I enlighet medprestandakravet definieras maximalt lastscenario. Med givna svarvningsparametrar beräknas skärkraften på materialet vid dess kontakt med skärverktyget. En inbyggd motor som är tillräckligt kraftfull och uppfyller hastighets- och effektkraven väljs och en preliminär konstruktion skapas med valda lager, lagerordningar och axelmaterial.Beteendet av den preliminära spindelkonstruktionen, under påverkan av skärkrafter och rotation analyseras statiskt och dynamiskt med hjälp av FEM och analytiska modeller. Inom ett givet område optimeras avståndet mellan lagren, vilka utgör spindelns stöd.Genom verifikation och optimering av den preliminära konstruktionen skapas den slutliga detaljkonstruktionen. Slutkonstruktionen innefattar alla nödvändiga detaljer och viktiga krav beaktas och balanseras, som att vara tillverkningsbar och monterbar, tätningssystem, ett system för hastighetsmätning och lägesmätning, kabelvägar och andra nödvändiga punkter. I slutänden konstrueras en spindel som uppfyller den definierade kravspecifikationen.
Machine tools enable the industry to shape almost any material by a variety of methods. Lathes are one of the most common machines to cut circular parts with precision and accuracy. And the spindle of a lathe can be entitled as the most critical mechanical component which makes the cutting process possible. A lathe spindle rotates the workpiece to be cut against a stationary rigid cutting tool, therefore removing material through the contact edge. In this thesis, a spindle is aimed to be designed which complies with a set of specifications defined. These specifications consists of performance requirements such as speed and power, dimensional constraints for space and bore diameter, and component types which must be used, such as for the motor.Based on the performance requirements, a maximum loading case with cutting parameters is defined. With these cutting parameters, cutting forces acting to the material from at the contact point with the cutting tool are calculated. A built-in motor with sufficient power and speed specifications is selected based on the maximum cutting forces and speed requirements. A preliminary design is made up by selecting bearings, bearing arrangements and shaft material.With static and dynamic analysis conducted on the preliminary design through analytical models and FEM, the behavior of the spindle is investigated separately under the cutting forces and during the rotation. Within an allowable range, optimization is made on the bearing span distances which are the support locations for the spindle.Following the verification and optimization of the preliminary design, the final detail design of the spindle is made. The final design includes the design of all the necessary parts, by taking the manufacturability, assemblability, sealing design, a system for speed and position measurements, cable paths and more necessary points into account. Ultimately, a spindle which meets the requirements and specifications successfully is designed as the expected outcome of this thesis.

Abstract:
Normal stress electromagnetic actuators can be used as both an axial bearing and an in-feed motor in precision machine tool applications that require only millimeter-range axial stroke, such as silicon wafer face grinding or meso-machining. The rotary cutting stage may be integrated with the axially-feeding stage in a rotary-axial architecture. This typology allows the use of independent rotary and axial actuators acting on a single moving mass, rather than an axial actuator moving an entire rotary motor assembly in the feed direction as in typical machine tool architectures. Non-collocated resonances are therefore minimized and thrust and radial stiffness is increased through the elimination of intermediate lateral and thrust bearings, and achievable closed loop positioning performance is improved. This thesis presents the working principle, design, and analysis of radially-biased electromagnetic bearing/actuators for large load precision rotary-axial spindle applications, and the integration of such an actuator in a full scale prototype to be used as a silicon wafer face grinder. The experimental results indicate that the rotary-axial spindle with radially-biased thrust bearing/actuator is capable of achieving less than 7 nm resolution over a 1.5 mm axial stroke, a worst case load capacity of approximately 5000 N and a best case load capacity of over 8000 N, with rotary-axial coupling of less than 30 nm axial error at 3000 rpm.

Abstract:
Regenerative chatter is a well-known machining problem that results in unstable cutting process, poor surface quality, reduced material removal rate and damage on the machine tool itself. Stability lobe diagrams supply stable depth of cut &
#8211
spindle speed combinations and they can be used to avoid chatter. The main requirement for generating the stability lobe diagrams is the system dynamics information at the tool tip in the form of point frequency response function (FRF). In this work, an analytical model that uses structural coupling and modification methods for modeling the dynamics of spindle-holder-tool assemblies in order to obtain the tool point FRF is presented. The resulting FRF obtained by the model can be used in the existing analytical and numerical models for constructing the stability lobe diagrams. Timoshenko beam theory is used in the model for improved accuracy and the results are compared with those of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The importance of using Timoshenko beam theory in the model is pointed out, and the circumstances, under which the theory being used in the model becomes more important, are explained. The model is verified by comparing the results obtained by the model with those of a reliable finite element software for a case study. The computational superiority in using the model developed against the finite element software is also demonstrated. Then, the model is used for studying the effects of bearing and contact dynamics at the spindle-holder and holder-tool interfaces on the tool point FRF. Based on the results of the effect analysis, a new approach is suggested for the identification of bearing and interface parameters from experimental measurements, which is demonstrated on a spindle-holder-tool assembly. The model is also employed for studying the effects of design and operational parameters on the tool point FRF, from the results of which, suggestions are made regarding the design of spindles and selection of operational parameters. Finally, it is experimentally demonstrated that the stability lobe diagram of an assembly can be predicted pretty accurately by using the model proposed, and furthermore the stability lobe diagram can be modified in a predictable manner for improving chatter stability.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 83-84).
This paper describes the design and fabrication of an apparatus to characterize the performance of lathe spindles as a function of spindle bearing preload. The apparatus will be used to assist undergraduate students enrolled in 2.72 in understanding mechanical design concepts. In order to assess spindle performance, the apparatus measures the radial stiffness, radial error motion, and running torque of a spindle at different preload levels. The data obtained using the apparatus can be used by students to select the optimal preload level for a spindle. The apparatus was designed as four subsystems (one for each measurement) that were integrated into a cohesive measurement system. The apparatus is designed to be as small, light, and user-friendly as possible, in order for students to use it effectively. The apparatus is capable of measuring bearing preload up to 10,000 lbs with a linearity of 0.05% and radial error motion with an accuracy of +/-0.00012 in. (3 [mu]m). It can measure the radial stiffness of the spindle for applied loads up to 500 lbs and running torque up to 443 in-lbs (50 N-m). The fabrication and assembly of the mechanical apparatus, as designed, were completed.

Abstract This paper presents the design of a hydraulic motor driven spindle for the processing of metals and composite materials at high rotational speeds. Existing technologies applicable to spindles and spindle holders under severe operating conditions were reviewed. A conceptual design of the hydraulic spindle system was developed. A strong indication of distinct increase in spindle life and gains in cutting power at higher rotational speeds when compared to the conventional electric motor driven spindles underscored the need for the new spindle system.

Abstract:
The aeronautic industry requires high speed and high power spindles to obtain high material removal rates during long rough milling operations. The weakness of HSM spindle is the bearings, although high precision hybrid ball bearings have been developed to achieve this critical application. Inadequate use of spindles inevitably leads to shortened lifetimes. Choosing the operating conditions is a required step before machining applications. It can be achieved through either experimental tests or numerical modeling that leads to stability lobe diagrams. Stability of cuts relies on the dynamic behavior of the spindle, which is particularly due to the eigenfrequencies of the tool-shaft assembly. The frequencies depend on bearing stiffness that can change under operating conditions. That is why the impact of cutting conditions and bearing parameters on its stiffness are studied in the paper. A five degrees of freedom model of angular ball bearing is briefly presented. A complete bearing model is introduced. The originality of the approach is the complete technological modeling, notably of the radial expansions of inner and outer rings of bearing. A non-linear expression is established from continuum mechanics model. The influence of geometry of bearing, operating conditions and design parameters of spindle on the bearing stiffness are established and analysed. Then, modal analyses of the tool-spindle assembly are carried out in relation to the varying bearing stiffness. Finally, significance of the approach is demonstrated through the analyses of Frequency Response Function.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Experimental evidence [Shin, 1992] has shown that the natural frequencies of high speed spindles with angular contact ball bearings decrease with increasing rotational speed. A recent study [Wang, et al., 1991] illustrated that this phenomenon is caused by stiffness change of the bearings. A simplified approximation was used in the analysis to examine the bearing radial stiffness at high speeds. While the investigation explained the experimental observations in a qualitative sense, the analytical results so far are not sufficient to quantitatively describe the spindle behavior under high speed operations due to the approximations made in the modeling process. This paper presents an integrated approach toward the modelling of flexible spindles with angular contact ball bearings from basic principles. The local dynamics of the bearings are coupled with the global shaft motion. The model derived includes both the longitudinal and transverse vibrations of the shaft interacting with the nonlinear bearings. The influences of shaft speed on the bearing stiffness matrix and the system frequencies have been studied. It is shown that the spindle dynamic behavior can vary substantially as speed increases due to the bearing gyroscopic moment and centrifugal force. These effects have been ignored in most of the previous spindle models. Lab tests were conducted to validate the model. The analytical predictions are quantitatively verified by the experimental results.

Abstract:
Abstract Thermally induced bearing loads have long been recognized as a key factor impacting the reliability and performance of machine tool spindle systems. This is particularly true for reconfigurable machine tool spindles which may experience a wide range of external loads, processes and spindle speeds. Recent research on a roller bearing spindle has shown that it may be possible to control these loads by controlling the temperature distribution within the spindle housing. As this research focused on thermally induced loads in roller bearings, the bearing load model used was largely limited to a radial heat transfer/thermal expansion model. The purpose of this paper is to present a first step model for developing a methodology for designing bearing load monitoring and control systems for reconfigurable angular contact bearing spindles. The proposed model focuses on the thermally and mechanically induced spindle bearing loads in a back to back angular contact bearing pair that are due to radial and axial thermal expansion as well as the centrifugal forces and moments of the bearing balls. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed model is capable of predicting the interactions between bearing loads and spindle deflections that are likely to be important in the design of future reconfigurable machine tool spindle bearing load monitoring and control systems.

Abstract:
High speed aerostatic spindles operating at a speed up to 200,000 r/min are a complex product with a multi-physics nature resulted from embedded mechanical-thermal-fluidic-electromagnetic fields. It is much needed to have a comprehensive analysis on the multi-physic interactions within a high speed aerostatic spindle, which is essential for design of the spindles working at much higher speeds and accuracy in various increasingly stringent engineering conditions. This paper presents a multi-physics integrated modelling approach for design and analysis of the high speed aerostatic spindle, including thermal, electromagnetic, mechanical and fluidic analysis models. The heat source, heat transfer mechanism and heat sinks of the spindle system are comprehensively investigated. Furthermore, air film pressure distribution is studied to lead to optimal design and analysis of loading capacity and stiffness of the aerostatic bearings. The multi-physics modelling is implemented using the CFD-FEA integrated approach and validated experimentally. It is shown that the multi-physics integrated modelling is able to simulate the performance characteristics of the spindle system accurately.

Abstract:
The modeling of High Speed Machining (HSM) spindles is a complex task due to the numerous physical phenomena involved in the dynamic behavior. Modeling is still rarely used in the industry, although sophisticated research work has been achieved. The boundary conditions of rotor models, which correspond to the ball bearings, are crucial and difficult to define. Indeed, they affect the dynamic behavior of the rotor in a non-linear and sometimes in an unpredictable way. The aim of the paper is to determine a relevant spindle model, i.e. the adequate level of complexity. To do so, a dynamic bearing model is introduced and the axial model of a spindle is established in relation to the preloaded bearing arrangement. Then, the operating stiffness of the spindle has been obtained experimentally with a new specific device that applies axial load and measures the resulting displacement, whatever the spindle speed. The model updating with the experimental data combined to sensibility analysis have led to the model refinement with additional physical phenomena, in order to account for non-linearities observed experimentally. The parameters of the model are also identified experimentally. As a result, a relevant spindle model is obtained and validated by the good agreement between simulations and experiments.

Abstract:
Abstract The design of machine tool spindle for minimum cylindricity error is presented. The shape of the spindle portion between the bearings, usually cylindrical, is reconfigured to increase the spindle rigidity. Two methods of reconfiguration are presented. In the first method, the spindle is reshaped as a smooth body of revolution. In the second method, the spindle is reshaped as a stepped shaft. Effects of bearings rigidity and fatigue stresses are also considered.

Abstract:
This paper discusses the modeling and analysis of an example medium speed medium precision lathe spindle. This and few other similar topics have been assigned as term projects in an introductory senior undergraduate/graduate level finite element analysis course taught at Kettering University. The experiences and the general feedback from the students of the class show satisfactory organization of the course material that includes modeling and analysis of real life examples. With reference to the specific topic on design of machine tool spindles, it is not a new area, however, it is generally taught at the graduate and research levels. Use of modern computational tools to perform iterative design and analysis calculations of such spindles make the senior undergraduate and/or graduate master students aware of the implications of modeling a real life system using the 1D and 3D finite beam elements and to validate those results by a CAE tool. Final course projects such as this serve as a good learning tool to the graduating engineers. Sample results obtained from various CAE tools such as UG-NX 7.5 are presented in the paper and discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The coupling between the disk and spindle vibration modes of a rotating disk-spindle system is analyzed through the free vibrations of a rotating, flexible spindle with N attached flexible disks. The spindle is modeled as an extensible Kirchhoff-Love rod and the disks as Kirchhoff plates. Couplings between the longitudinal, torsional and flexural deformations of the spindle and the transverse and in-plane motions of the disk are studied analytically. A kinematically rich model captures couplings that have not been predicted previously. Discretization of these modes as a series of orthonormal functions allows for the construction of the characteristic matrix. The structure of this matrix is exploited to partition the eigenvalue problem into six natural classes and to provide simple, exact rules governing the coupling between the modes of the disk-spindle system. The longitudinal spindle vibration modes and the zero nodal diameter transverse disk modes are coupled inertially at all rotation speeds. The torsional spindle modes couple to the zero nodal diameter in-plane disk modes at all non-zero rotation speeds. This coupling is absent in a stationary disk-spindle system. For non-zero rotation speeds, the flexural modes of the spindle in the two orthogonal planes containing the undeformed spindle centerline and the one nodal diameter transverse and in-plane disk modes couple. The one nodal diameter transverse disk modes couple to the one nodal diameter in-plane disk modes through the flexural compliance of the spindle; this coupling cannot be observed through study of the disk alone.

Abstract:
Objectives. To evaluate the effectiveness and comparative effectiveness of opioid, nonopioid pharmacologic, and nonpharmacologic therapy in patients with specific types of acute pain, including effects on pain, function, quality of life, adverse events, and long-term use of opioids. Data sources. Electronic databases (Ovid® MEDLINE®, PsycINFO®, Embase®, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews) to August 2020, reference lists, and a Federal Register notice. Review methods. Using predefined criteria and dual review, we selected randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of outpatient therapies for eight acute pain conditions: low back pain, neck pain, other musculoskeletal pain, neuropathic pain, postoperative pain following discharge, dental pain (surgical or nonsurgical), pain due to kidney stones, and pain due to sickle cell disease. Meta-analyses were conducted on pharmacologic therapy for dental pain and kidney stone pain, and likelihood of repeat or rescue medication use and adverse events. The magnitude of effects was classified as small, moderate, or large using previously defined criteria, and strength of evidence was assessed. Results. One hundred eighty-three RCTs on the comparative effectiveness of therapies for acute pain were included. Opioid therapy was probably less effective than nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for surgical dental pain and kidney stones, and might be similarly effective as NSAIDs for low back pain. Opioids and NSAIDs were more effective than acetaminophen for surgical dental pain, but opioids were less effective than acetaminophen for kidney stone pain. For postoperative pain, opioids were associated with increased likelihood of repeat or rescue analgesic use, but effects on pain intensity were inconsistent. Being prescribed an opioid for acute low back pain or postoperative pain was associated with increased likelihood of use of opioids at long-term followup versus not being prescribed, based on observational studies. Heat therapy was probably effective for acute low back pain, spinal manipulation might be effective for acute back pain with radiculopathy, acupressure might be effective for acute musculoskeletal pain, an opioid might be effective for acute neuropathic pain, massage might be effective for some types of postoperative pain, and a cervical collar or exercise might be effective for acute neck pain with radiculopathy. Most studies had methodological limitations. Effect sizes were primarily small to moderate for pain, the most commonly evaluated outcome. Opioids were associated with increased risk of short-term adverse events versus NSAIDs or acetaminophen, including any adverse event, nausea, dizziness, and somnolence. Serious adverse events were uncommon for all interventions, but studies were not designed to assess risk of overdose, opioid use disorder, or long-term harms. Evidence on how benefits or harms varied in subgroups was lacking. Conclusions. Opioid therapy was associated with decreased or similar effectiveness as an NSAID for some acute pain conditions, but with increased risk of short-term adverse events. Evidence on nonpharmacological therapies was limited, but heat therapy, spinal manipulation, massage, acupuncture, acupressure, a cervical collar, and exercise were effective for specific acute pain conditions. Research is needed to determine the comparative effectiveness of therapies for sickle cell pain, acute neuropathic pain, neck pain, and management of postoperative pain following discharge; effects of therapies for acute pain on non-pain outcomes; effects of therapies on long-term outcomes, including long-term opioid use; and how benefits and harms of therapies vary in subgroups.
