Project Stakeholders: Jyoti CNC Automation Limited.
Objectives & Outcome of the Project:
Technical Objective of MX Project:
The MX multifunction machining center is a high flexibility machine enabling machining
operations for heavy and large work piece. The machine can perform 5 sides machining,
simultaneous 5 axes machining and variety of turning operations in one setup. It can do heavy
duty rough machining and accurate finish achieving in single setup. It can perform following
tasks in single setup:
• 5 axis machining for heavy work piece
• 5 sides machining
• Hard material machining in a minimal time
• Light alloy machining (like Aluminium)
• Very high accuracy in contouring and profiles
• Flexibility to adapt different requirement by using large ATC, APC and other automation
systems.
Scope of work:
22
The overall scope of this project covers design and development of a 5 axis CNC universal
machining center which can be utilized in a variety of heavy as well as large part machining in
variety of industry verticals. It should be carried out by research in key technology areas.
Technology - key areas
~ Hurth coupling and brake for rotary axis:
• Hurth coupling is required for rigid clamping at specific incremental angle. Brake is required
when clamping is required at any angle in resolution of 0.0001 degrees.
~ High speed rotary axis with gear drive for turning and milling operation:
• For accurate positioning, continuous milling and high speed turning in heavy work piece.
~ Hydrostatic bearing for rotary axis:
• To build high speed rotary axis with gear (as mentioned above) it is required to have special
bearing which can take very heavy load with high speed and high accuracy.
• This calls for development of hydrostatic bearings.
~ Automation systems like ATC/ APC/part loading unloading:
• For tool mounting in spindle, fast and reliable automatic tool change (ATC) is required for
production.
• Automatic pallet changer to improve productivity and reduce loading /unloading time of work
piece.
• Automatic part loading unloading will improve efficiency.
~ Spindle motor development:
• As this machine contains variety of spindles options for different applications - spindle motor is
the key element which will define cutting capacity of the machine and it must be well
dimensioned for overall compactness of the machine.
• Built in spindle motor (rotor-stator) should be energy efficient compatible with various
controllers.
Geometrical and Thermal error compensation to improve work piece accuracy:
• Even though machine parts are made with utmost accuracy and assembled with precision
assembly technology there is always some residual errors which will remain in geometry of the
machine and some error will be caused by changing thermal condition of the machine body and
ambient.
• These errors can be reduced by applying highly refined error compensation system on the
machines, which needs to be developed· by in depth testing and research of the machine
behaviour.
Energy efficiency:
23
• For energy efficiency, it is required to optimize structural parts - particularly moving mass of
the slides which will eventually reduce motor size and improves machine efficiency.
• This can be accomplished by sophisticated FEM analysis techniques.
• Develop efficient hydraulic system and develop power monitoring /management system.
Software - user interface and machine monitoring system:
• HMI (human machine interface) development with customization for easy operating of this
type of complex system and machine monitoring system to improve overall user efficiency.
Machine structural design and optimization:
• Structural design of bed, traverse, column, head stock, slides should be optimize for energy
efficiency, better dynamic and optimum performance of the machine. Use of FEM analysis and
various optimization techniques can help optimizing the structural design.
Output of the project/Key Researches:
• Technological advanced and precision universal 5 axis machining center for heavy and large
part manufacturing in short time with high flexibility.
• Hurth coupling and brake for rotary axis.
• High speed rotary axis with gear drive for turning and milling operation.
• Hydrostatic bearing for rotary axis.
• Built-in Spindle motor development
• HMI (human machine interface) software
• Geometrical and thermal error compensation system

machine with respect to the thermal behaviour of the structure. Hence the deliverables of
the project will revolve around maintaining the accuracy at the tool cutting point right
from cold start.
The success of the project will be measured by comparing the current thermal behaviour
of the machine and accuracies achieved against the behaviour after thermal compensation
process. The measurement will be done by producing components under test conditions.
The other deliverable will be bench marking the performance of the machine against any
imported machine with similar feature.
Retrofit Options:
The project involves extensive experimentation on the model machine with the test set
up. Data on machine behaviour also needs to be captured under various test conditions.

Cost Benefit Analysis
Indian machines are as yet not accepted to be of high class of accuracy and hence high
accuracy machines are being imported to satisfy the machining needs.
To compete with these requirements, the Indian machines need to achieve the same levels
of accuracy on the components.
Once the methodology is established, the same can be replicated on various models of
machines.
Indian developed turning machines can be offered to the customers on high accuracy
platforms at affordable prices. The products also can compete in global markets.
The project will help the Indian machine tool machines with high accuracies that can
enhance accuracies achieved in various machining operations. Some unique solutions can
also be offered globally at a lower price - again thereby increasing competitiveness.

PROJECT No. 11
Project Title : Development of 5kW drives and 25kW spindle drives for machine tool
applications
Target : Development of 5 kW axis drives and 25 kW spindle drives for machine
tool applications
Project Duration : 3 Years
Project Outlay : Rs. 6.47 crores
Main Sponsor : DHI (Dept. of Heavy Industry), Ministry of Heavy Industry, GOI
Project execution : Indian Institute of Technology, Madras
Project Stakeholders: Interface Design Associate Pvt. Limited
Objectives, Scope and Output of the Project :
The Objective of the project is to develop scalable and rugged indigenous Servo Motor drives
(Axis and Spindle).
The scope of work includes
a) Benchmarking of top of the line axis and spindle drives and formulate specifications
b) Development of the power electronic controller modules
c) Development of the DSP/FPGA based control platform with state of the art technology
d) Development of suitable control strategies and algorithms for high performance motor
control
e) Development of test facilities for high performance motor controls upto 25 kW
f) Testing and benchmarking of designed electronic motor controller subsystem against
global standards incl. Environmental tests, EMIIEMC tests
g) Field trials by installing the systems at 20 sites - in labs and in actual production sites
The output of the project will be as follows:
a) Development of indigenous rugged proven design - If required, 2 or 3 different packages
may be developed for different power ratings ( and hence for different machine sizes)
b) 20 prototypes of motor control systems for field trials

Quantifiable outputs:
The project entails development and production of axis and spindle drives. While the final test is
to run a CNC machine tool with this, suitable milestones and qualification criteria have already
been incorporated into the development proposal i.e.:
Operation at targeting power levels i.e. 5 KW for axis drives and 25 KW for spindle
drives
Meeting EMI/EMC and environmental standards - these tests have already been
proposed. In case we have a budget, we will also do the CE certification, which will
enable us to export to Europe.
Accuracy tests are conducted on in-house test beds developed as part of the project:
a) Machine level tests on machines procured at the COE
b) Field trials on machines at OEM manufacturers
c) While the primary objective is to meet current performance levels of competitive
imported products, the team has received many concepts which need to be tried and
proven out, like:
- CNC system operating on single phase power ( and not 3 phase power)
- CNC system operating from solar power ( 48 volt DC based operation)
- Lower power consumption models - such that machines are operated at lower
power levels using efficient drives based on high frequency switching
technologies
