Multi body vibration analysis of a three-axis slide for mass damper design

Abstract eng:
Vibration analysis has a key role in machine design. However, the modal analysis based on FEM (finite element method) could be too slow for the machine with changeable topology. This work presents rigid body based model in MSC ADAMS for a low-frequency vibration analysis of a multi-spindle lathe slide. This example represents a three-axis motion system with dominant contact stiffness in linear guideways. The model was used for cutting stability estimation and for dynamic damper development. The validation of this model was done by experimental measurement and by FEM model calculation. In the future, due to its computational efficiency, the model could be used for artificial topological optimization of this machine.
