  • Patent number: 12730430
    Abstract: A method for predicting a thermal error of a spindle of a computer numerical control (CNC) machine tool based on twin feature transferring of a virtual-real prototype, is provided, including: first, building a spindle physical prototype experiment table, and screening temperature sensitive points outside the physical prototype spindle, so as to establish an autoregressive distributed lag model; second, determining a temperature synchronization lag point on the physical prototype spindle corresponding to the temperature sensitive point outside the physical prototype spindle, so as to construct a thermal error analysis model; thereafter, establishing a virtual prototype and transferring the twin feature of the physical prototype, and by integrating a twin coupling relationship between the physical prototype spindle and the virtual prototype spindle, realizing the thermal error prediction.

  • Patent number: 12667933
    Abstract: An evolutionary compensation method for a spindle rotation error of a CNC grinding machine is provided. Feature points are determined at an edge of a central hole of a spindle of a CNC grinding machine, and a spindle rotation error in-situ measuring device is fixed on the grinding machine and aligned with the edge of the central hole; a trajectory image of the feature points is acquired by using the measuring device; a measured value of the spindle rotation error is obtained according to the trajectory image; features of the spindle rotation error are fused with the measured value of the spindle rotation error, a spindle rotation error compensation model is established, to output a spindle rotation error compensation value, thereby compensating the spindle rotation error. By continuously calibrating the error model using the measured value, accuracy of the error model has been continuously optimized.

  • Patent number: 12583113
    Abstract: Provided is a generalization generation method of industrial robot pose trajectories supporting changeable operation path points, which relates to the field of robot trajectory planning. The method includes: acquiring a plurality of groups of robot end pose trajectories; aligning time steps of the pose trajectories via a multi-dimensional dynamic time warping algorithm; constructing a Gaussian mixture model of robot pose trajectories in combination with a variational Bayesian method and an attitude quaternion tangent space mapping method; calculating reference pose trajectory distribution via a Gaussian mixture regression method; performing kernelized representation on pose trajectory distribution, and solving an optimal hyperparameter of a kernel function by minimizing a root mean square error of a reproduced reference trajectory; and generating the robot end pose trajectories adapted to the operation path points by updating the reference pose trajectory distribution.

  • Publication number: 20250076844
    Abstract: A method of constructing a digital twin physical field of a computer numerical control machine tool with double order reduction is provided. A physical field finite element simulation sample data set in a working state sampling space has an order preliminarily reduced to sparse grid node data via an improved K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) algorithm, so that the number of point sets is kept within the real-time rendering capability range of graphic rendering software. A digital twin physical field proxy model is trained using a radial basis function (RBF) to realize reconstruction of the physical field. The proxy model is iteratively optimized using a genetic algorithm to solve the problem of deviation between a proxy physical field model and a real physical model. Finally, the proxy model is deployed to a digital twin system, and the physical field distribution is solved in real time.
