摘要:
A machine tool includes a table, a main shaft, and an electric heating piece. The table includes an upright post and a main shaft support element connected to the upright post. The main shaft is rotatably disposed at the main shaft support element of the table. The electric heating piece is disposed at the main shaft support element of the table and positioned on a side of the main shaft, wherein the side of the main shaft manifests a lower thermal deformation level. The regulation of the electric heating piece minimizes the nonlinear thermal deformation of the main shaft, thereby enhancing processing precision.

A heat exchanger such as an evaporator for a temperature control system includes an input port with an orifice through which a refrigerant enters the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger includes a plurality of plates and a tilted deflection surface near the input port. High-pressure refrigerant entering through the input port impinges on the tilted deflection surface and is deflected by the deflection surface onto the plates. The tilt angle of the deflection surface is selected such that the refrigerant is evenly distributed over the plates resulting in even and highly efficient heat transfer. The heat exchanger can be used as the evaporator in a refrigeration system used to control temperature in a workpiece chuck for supporting a flat workpiece such as a semiconductor wafer during processing and testing. In particular, the heat exchanger can be used to control the temperature of a fluid which is circulated through the chuck to control the temperature of the workpiece and/or the chuck itself. In that setting, the temperature control circulating fluid can be circulated through the heat exchanger over the sides of the plates opposite the refrigerant to cool the circulating fluid. Because the refrigerant is evenly distributed over the plates, highly efficient heat transfer, i.e., cooling, is achieved.

A method of and apparatus for controlling the heat deformation of machine tools having a plurality of frames is disclosed in which the temperatures at symmetrical or opposite portions of the frames are measured, analyzed and then utilized to maintain the temperatures of the frames at the same temperature, or to maintain a constant temperature difference between the frame portions. The frame portions may either be heated or cooled to obtain the desired temperature.

A core support system includes a support structure. The support structure includes a frame and a support member having a saturatable engagement layer disposed over the frame. A method of machining a core material incudes applying a fluid to an engagement layer of a support structure and saturating the engagement layer with the fluid, disposing a core material on the engagement layer, causing the fluid to freeze to secure to the core material to the support structure, machining the core material, melting the frozen fluid to release the core material from the support structure, and removing the core material from the engagement layer.

An arrangement includes an electrically operated production machine having at least one electrically operated motor and a machine element, and a temperature control system for maintaining the machine element at a controlled temperature. The temperature control system includes a heating unit which is integrated in a machine-internal heat exchange process to use thermal losses generated by the motor to heat the machine element.

The problem of controlling the temperature of the different units in a process tool system which have to be cooled or heated using thermal transfer fluid at selected setpoints and flow rates is resolved by a system having multiple modular units each with some operative and form factor commonality but at least dual functional capability. The modular units each have separate recirculation loops for thermal transfer fluid but cool the fluid using refrigeration cycles or facilities water supplies or heat the fluid using compressed hot gases or electrical energy. By employing operative units which can be internally varied to provide different thermal capacities within form factor constraints, the system enables concurrent temperature control needs of a number of different units to be met with an energy efficient, low footprint, highly adaptable system.

The invention relates to a veneer lathe knife assembly comprising a lower portion (5) supporting a veneer cutting knife (3) and a upper portion (2) supporting a backing nose bar (4), said upper portion including adjustment screw means (1 to 1nullnull) or the like devices for adjusting position of the nose bar (4) in the upper portion (2) of the assembly. To perform a fine adjustment of the knife gap formed between the cutting knife and the nose bar, the adjustment screw means are equipped with means (6) for controlling the temperature of the screw means.
摘要:
In a thermal equalization system a machine tool carriage preferably of aluminum but which could be made of other lightweight materials, a drilling spindle housing is mounted on the carriage. At least one spindle housing is be mounted said carriage to service work pieces mounted on a tooling plate of the work table for said spindle. The chiller unit is used to provide coolant to the spindle to compensate for the heat generated by the spindle during drilling. When the spindle is not drilling, excessive cooling of the spindle can result. Accordingly, the instant invention also includes, a conductive rubber heating pad which is attached to the spindle structure to provide a heat source for the system to compensate for excessive cooling when the drill is not generating heat. The temperature control maintains the temperature between the spindle housing, carriage and work table thereby minimizing temperature expansion differentials between the drilling position and the worktable position.
