Research on Deterministic Figuring of Ultra-Precision Shaft Parts Based on Analysis and Control of Figuring Ability

The application of ultra-precision shaft parts is widely used, such as the spindle core of the air bearing spindle in ultra-precision machine tools. The precision of the spindle core is extremely high, and it is very difficult to obtain directly by traditional Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine tools but is mostly obtained by manual grinding, whose machining efficiency is greatly limited. Based on the deterministic figuring theory, this paper focuses on the ultra-precision roundness, optimizing the filtering parameters of the measurement error data and studying the generation mechanism of the removal function morphology; the shape of the removal function is adjusted by combining the analysis of the figuring ability and positioning error. Finally, the optimized removal function is used on an experimental steel shaft, the average roundness convergence ratio is 72% higher than that of the original removal function, and the roundness reaches a 0.1 μm level. The result shows that a reasonable filtering of measured data and the removal function adjusted for the surface feature can improve the efficiency and precision of deterministic figuring on shaft parts.
