Descripción
Resumo:It is crucial to investigate methods for improving the stiffness performance of machine tools according to their specific dynamic working conditions. This paper presents a complete computer-aided workflow for structural transient topology optimization (TO) design, which is applied to the structural design issue of the JH31-250 press machine (Zhejiang Weili Forging Machinery Co., Ltd., Shaoxing, China). The stiffness influenced by the shape of the press frame under long-term dynamic impact load is analyzed, and an optimal design for the frame structure of the press machine is explored. In order to reduce the iteration time of the dynamic analysis, we also proposed a way to simplify the physical structure of the machine tool into a thin-walled structure model with artificial pseudo-density and introduced the hybrid cellular automata (HCA) criterion to obtain the topological iteration direction. This simplified model can be transformed back into 3D solid design of the press. The maximum relative displacement of the worktable in this optimized press model is 0.4896 mm, which is reduced by 31.02% compared to the original press model, which shows that the transient dynamic stiffness of the press machine frame is improved. This work presents a topological optimization method and path, which can be used for the optimization of dynamic stiffness in forging machine tools, and proves the correctness and effectiveness of the design for the transient dynamic stiffness of the frame.
