I. Introduction
Digital control machine tools, abbreviated as numerical control machine tools (NC, Numerical Control), are integrated electromechanical products integrating mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, microelectronics, and information technologies for more than 30 years, and are used in the production of modern machine tools. Generally, multi-motor drag is used, and the spindle and each feed system are respectively dragged by their own motors. Due to the wide range of machine tools, different workpieces, different processes, and different tools, the execution components of machine tools are required to have different speeds of motion. Therefore, the main movement of the machine tool should be capable of stepless speed regulation. The spindle speed control system generally uses AC spindles. system.
With the development of variable frequency speed control technology, the AC drive of the spindle of the CNC machine tool can meet the needs as well. The main drive motor drives the spindle to rotate through the belt drive, or through the belt drive and the reduction gear in the spindle box (to obtain more torque) to drive the spindle to rotate. Due to the wide speed range of the spindle motor and stepless speed regulation, the structure of the spindle box is greatly simplified.
Second, the technical requirements of CNC machine tools
1 motor requirements
Usually requires the use of variable frequency motor, or ordinary motor plus fan to meet the motor cooling requirements at low frequencies, and requires a wide range of motor speed.
2 Technical requirements for the frequency converter
a requires low-frequency torque
At low frequency (1~10Hz), it can come out with 150% of rated torque.
b Fast dynamic response of torque, high precision of steady speed
Can achieve a very good dynamic response effect, according to the load changes, through the output torque changes quickly respond, so as to achieve the stability of the shaft speed.
c Fast deceleration and stop speed
Generally, the accelerating and decelerating time of the CNC machine tool is relatively short. The accelerating time depends on the performance of the inverter and the decelerating time depends on the external braking resistor or the braking unit.
d High reliability
Inverter's low failure rate, stable and reliable operation
e EMC issues
CNC machine tools for industrial applications, not only requires the inverter itself strong anti-interference ability, but can not interfere with the peripheral control equipment.
It can be known from the working principle of the inverter that the output of the inverter contains certain harmonic components. If it is handled improperly, it will cause interference to other devices. The most easily disturbed device on CNC machine tools is the CNC controller. Once the CNC controller is disturbed, the system will not work properly. In particular, the inverter frequency command and operation command may also be disturbed. Severe interference may cause frequency command instability and inverter malfunction. The solution to this type of problem is to undergo rigorous EMC testing at the factory of the inverter and use EMC-qualified inverter products.

Six, the use of effects
After the ALPHA6000 series inverters were tested in batches by Shenyang Machine Tool Plant, the ALPHA6000 series of inverters were fully tested. The user's proof of use with the ALPHA6000 inverter can fully meet the requirements of the spindle control of the machine tool. The low-speed operation output torque is stable and can meet different parts. Machining needs, can completely replace the traditional structure of the rolling bearing spindle, and this spindle structure is simple, compact, can achieve true stepless speed regulation. The speed of this spindle is controlled by an external analog signal to control the output frequency. Different machining processes (such as roughing, finishing, etc.) require different rotation speeds. At this time, the digital control system can output different analog voltage signals to the inverter. The realization of different speeds, at the same time the start-stop signal is also controlled by the numerical control system, which improves the degree of automation and prolongs the service life of the tools. At present, ALPHA6000 inverter has been equipped with a large number of Shenyang machine tools, the user response is excellent, and the failure rate is almost zero.
Seventh, conclusion
Through the successful application of the ALPHA 6000 series frequency conversion on the spindle of CNC machine tools, the situation of relying on imported products in the past has changed and the product cost has been greatly reduced. ALPHA6000 series inverters are rapidly used in CNC machine tools because of their unique performance and superior cost performance.
