Fault Diagnosis of Linear Guide Rails Based on SSTG Combined with CA-DenseNet

Monitoring the status of linear guide rails is essential because they are important components in linear motion mechanical production.Thus,this paper proposes a new method of conducting the fault diagnosis of linear guide rails.First,synchrosqueezing transform(SST)combined with Gaussian high-pass filter,termed as SSTG,is proposed to process vibration signals of linear guide rails and obtain time-frequency images,thus helping realize fault feature visual enhancement.Next,the coordinate attention(CA)mechanism is introduced to promote the DenseNet model and obtain the CA-DenseNet deep learning framework,thus realizing accurate fault classifica-tion.Comparison experiments with other methods reveal that the proposed method has a high classification accuracy of up to 95.0%.The experimental results further demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method for the fault diagnosis of linear guide rails.

Analyzing the Flow Field in the Oil Chamber of a Hydrostatic Guide Rail Used for Ultra-Precision Machining: Numerical Simulation and Performance Optimization

In order to explore the impact of different structural design parameters and environmental factors on the performance of the hydrostatic guide rail,the flow field inside its oil chamber is simulated,which provides direction and guidance for the design and optimization of the guide rail system.Based on the theory of fluid lubrication and the Reynolds equation,numerical simulations are performed through a mathematical model.The results suggest that the bearing capacity of the oil film increases with the oil supply pressure.The film thickness and the film stiffness share a positive correlation.Different oil film thickness and different input pressure parameters can have a significant impact on bearing capacity and oil film stiffness.The correlations identified in the present analysis can be used as a basis to optimize the guide rail design.

Bending Properties of GCr15 Steel Guide Rail under the Multi-step Loading

To analyze the bending properties of GCr15 steel guide rail based on the elastic-plastic theory, the novel bending loading method consisting of multi-step loading and corresponding unloading was applied in three specimens with different cross section shape and different heat treatment condition. According to the experimental results, using numerical calculation software program and the numerical simulation with finite element analysis （FEA）, the relationships among the maximal load and displacement on cross section shape with each step bend loading, the loading stroke with the heat treatment condition, and the loading stroke with cross section shape were gained, and also those curves were discussed qualitatively. Finally, the contrast results between the numerical simulation and experiment were carried out to study the influence about the multi-step loading on specimen. It is put forward that enlightenment for the straightening stroke in the precision linear guide rail manufacture process.

Evaluation of measurement uncertainty of the high-speed variable-slit system based on the Monte Carlo method

This paper presents a dynamic and static error transfer model and uncertainty evaluation method for a high-speed variable-slit system based on a two- dimensional orthogonal double-layer air-floating guide rail structure. The motion accuracy of the scanning blade is affected by both the moving component it is attached to and the moving component of the following blade during high-speed motion. First, an error transfer model of the high-speed variable-slit system is established, and the influence coefficients are calculated for each source of error associated with the accuracy of the blade motion. Then, the maximum range of each error source is determined by simulation and experiment. Finally, the uncertainty of the blade displacement measurement is evaluated using the Monte Carlo method. The proposed model can evaluate the performance of the complex mechanical system and be used to guide the design.
