To further improve the thermal characteristics of motorized spindle for high-speed precision machine tools
a novel shaft core cooling structure is proposed. This structure consists of several U-shaped cooling units arranged evenly in the shaft core
and the coolant can efficiently transfer heat of the shaft and bearings. The effects of this cooling structure on the thermal characteristics of motorized spindle are obtained based on the analysis model of motorized spindle thermo-structural coupling characteristics. The results show that the cooling structure can effectively control the temperature rise of the system. Compared with motorized spindle without shaft core cooling structure
the total thermal deformation is decreased by 50.2%
and the thermal balancing time is shortened by 50%
which enhances machining accuracy and efficiency. By regulating the parameters of coolant
the variation of axial thermal deformation can be limited to 2 μm at different rotation speeds.
