Abstract
This work proposes a procedure to sizing a ball-screw feed drive considering the closed-loop performance. This is achieved by additional steps to the traditional mechanical sizing, where a high frequency model is used to tune the controller in order to achieve adequate stability margins. After that, the tracking error is evaluated for different screw candidates, under nominal and non-nominal operational conditions for a high speed machine tool. Finally, the optimum screw assemble is selected based on minimum torque requirement. As a main conclusion, the screw lead is identified as a high influencing factor in the system dynamics and then on the closed-loop performance, showing the need of an integrated design.
