Abstract

This paper employs the SVD (singular value decomposition) method to study dynamic characteristics of a numerical control (NC) table. Acceleration signals of the NC table at three directions are tested; the singular spectrum of the signals is acquired with SVD; principal components of the signals are found out; dynamic characteristics of the signals and their contributing factors are studied by extracting dynamic characteristics of principal components; and signals and principal components are quantitatively analyzed by calculating signal energy. Results indicate that signal characteristics of the previous two principal components are apparent, based on which dynamic characteristics of chaotic signal can be extracted. Signal at the perpendicular direction of the table is significantly correlated with that at the horizontal motion direction, which indicates that they are excited from the same vibration source. However, signals perpendicular to each other in terms of the motion direction at the horizontal level are rarely correlated; the total signal energy is maximum at the motion direction, minimum at the horizontal non-motion direction, and medium at the perpendicular non-motion direction. Bending vibration of the lead screw at the perpendicular direction is far more violent than that at the horizontal direction.
