Fuzzy FMECA for CNC machine tool spindle system

Abstract

The spindle systems of the state-of-the-art computer numeric controlled (CNC) machine tools are increasingly important than ever, for that the even distinguished demand of higher efficiency, reliability, and productivity of today’s manufacturing industry lead to the aforementioned system works under higher rotational speed and higher cutting performance. This paper extended the conventional failure modes, effect and criticality analysis by integrating which with fuzzy theory to finitizing a failure analysis of an electric spindle system of a CNC machine tool aims to avoid unwanted failures of the system and achieve safe and reliable operation of the device. Critical components, critical failure modes of the spindle system that call for special attention are ascertained. Root causes of the critical failure modes as well as recommendations e.g. periodical inspection of the bearings as well as robust design for electrical and electronical complements for avoiding their occurrence are obtained.

Reliability analysis of cock valve based on FMECA

“…Sufficient conditions are given to compare the expected total weights of the two systems [4] . This paper presents a method to optimize the maintenance strategy of static equipment in natural gas station by using FMECA [5] . FMECA is a kind of fault analysis technology for complex mechanical equipment.…”
