In the design of linear motor platform, the thickness selection of granite precision base is a crucial decision. The right base thickness not only ensures the stability and accuracy of the platform, but also optimizes costs and extends service life. In this paper, the key factors to be considered in the selection of granite precision base thickness are analyzed in detail from the aspects of load distribution, stiffness requirements, thermal deformation, cost-effectiveness and machining feasibility.
First, load distribution
The linear motor platform will bear various loads during operation, including static loads and dynamic loads. The base needs to be able to distribute these loads evenly to avoid local stress concentration. Therefore, when selecting the thickness of the base, it is necessary to fully consider the load distribution characteristics of the platform to ensure that the base has sufficient carrying capacity.
Second, stiffness demand
Stiffness is one of the important performance indexes of linear motor platform, which reflects the deformation degree of platform under external force. The stiffness of granite precision base is closely related to its thickness, increasing the thickness of base can improve its stiffness. When selecting the base thickness, you need to make trade-offs based on the stiffness requirements of the platform to ensure that the base can provide adequate stiffness support.
Three, heat deformation
During the operation of the linear motor platform, the motor and the base will produce thermal deformation due to heat. Thermal deformation will affect the accuracy and stability of the platform. The coefficient of thermal expansion of granite is small, but the base with thinner thickness is more susceptible to thermal deformation. Therefore, when selecting the thickness of the base, it is necessary to consider the influence of thermal deformation comprehensively to ensure that the base can maintain good performance when the temperature changes.
Fourth, cost-effectiveness
Cost-effectiveness is an important factor to consider when selecting granite precision base thickness. Increasing the thickness of the base can improve the stability and stiffness of the platform, but it also increases the cost of materials and processing costs. Therefore, when selecting the base thickness, it is necessary to reduce the cost as much as possible under the premise of meeting the performance requirements. Cost-effectiveness can be optimized by optimizing materials, processing processes and design schemes.
5. Processing feasibility
Machining feasibility is a practical problem to be considered when selecting the thickness of granite precision base. Too thick base will not only increase the difficulty and cost of processing, but also may be limited by processing equipment and technology. Therefore, when selecting the base thickness, it is necessary to consider the processing feasibility comprehensively to ensure that the selected thickness can be achieved under the existing processing conditions.
In summary, when selecting the thickness of granite precision base of linear motor platform, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the load distribution, stiffness demand, thermal deformation, cost effectiveness and processing feasibility. By weighing these factors, the base thickness that meets the performance requirements and is economical can be selected, which provides a strong guarantee for the stable operation of the linear motor platform.
