Abstract In any machining center the spindle forms a vital component as it holds and rotates the cutting tool. As such, the modelling and analysis of this part of the machining center is crucial for successful design and subsequently manufacturing them. The dimensional accuracy and surface finish of the work piece in machining operation are of particular interest and the way the machine tool spindle influences these parameters is of great concern to the user. In the present work, the static and dynamic behavior of horizontal CNC machining center spindle is studied. The spindle is modelled in ANSYS and is analyzed for static and dynamic loading. The deflection curves and mode shapes are obtained at different cutting forces for EN24 and H13 materials.
Key Words: Machining center, dynamic behavior
Thestateofartcomputernumericalcontrol(CNC)machine tool needs higher speed, higher precision, and good efficiency,thehigh speedmotorizedspindlehasbecomethe most important part of metal cutting machine tool. High speed motorized spindle influences the overall technical performance of the machine tools, [1,2]. Hence it is importanttoanalyzethedynamiccharacteristicsofspindle. Bearings carry a great significance as quality, accuracy of machinedependsonthem.Theoperatinghistoryofspindle Operating speed, Type of lubrication, Estimating the workloads,Torque,Spindlematerialmustknowparameters. Spindlesaremostlyhollowandcontainsthedrawbarwhich decreases its weight. To maintain the accuracy under the influence of cutting forces and the moving weight of the machinetoolelements,thespindlestructureshouldpossess high static and dynamic stiffness, this is to ensure it withstandsvariousforcesactingonit[3].Al Shareefetal.[4] suggestedaquasi staticmethodofanalyzingmachinetool spindles. They worked by taking the amplitude of the dynamic forces and applies them to a static model of the spindle bearingsystem.

During milling, the vibration cannot be avoided, and this changes the relative position of work pieces and milling cutters and also accelerates the wears of milling cutter. Therefore, the Modal analysis of spindle is the primary problemofdynamiccharacteristicsanalysis.
ModalanalysisisbasisofHarmonicresponseanalysis.The computing time is effectively reduced based on the completed modal analysis. For harmonic response, the cutting force is applied on the end of the spindle taper to analyzethe10orderfrequency,whoserangeisfrom0Hzto 1400Hz with step 400Hz.
