It plays an important role in reducing the machine idle time, which can improve work efficiency and reliability significantly. Various types of ATC with quite different working principles have been applied in machining centers. Yan and Chen studied the configuration synthesis of machining centers with tool change mechanisms and the classification of automatic tool changers in 1 and 2. Reference 3 investigated types and design characteristics of automatic tool change mechanism. According to the difference of drive mechanism for tool changer, it mainly includes two types of ATC, one of which is hydraulic drive ATC, another is mechanical cam drive ATC. Reference 4 compared those two type of ATC and indicated that the latter has more advantage because of higher efficiency and reliability. A tool changer driven by double-follower cam gear, which can be used in both vertical and horizontal machining center, was researched on in 5 Based on the investigation of existing types of ATC and research on ATC working process6, a novel type of ATC driven by dual-cam linkage is considered for hori-zontal machining center. 2 The Dual-Cam Linkage Drive ATCGenerally, there are two parts participating in tool exchange in a machining center with ATC. A push-pull rod in spindle is used to push or pull the tool holder, so that the tool in the front-end of spindle would be clamped or unclamped, and a tool changer is used to exchange tools between the spindle and tool magazine. Tool changer and push-pull rod should work sequentially, otherwise serious problems, for example, damage to tools, spindle and magazine, may occur. 2.1 Mechanism of Dual-Cam Linkage Drive ATC A typical cam drive ATC used popularly is shown in Fig. 1. The two parts participat-ing in tool exchange are driven separately. In tool push-pull part, the push-pull rod is driven by hydraulic pressure, and the tool in the front-end of spindle will be clamped or unclamped according to the movement of push-pull rod. In the tool exchange part, the power is from a motor, and the tool changer is controlled by cams. In order to ensure the two parts work sequentially, several limit and proximityswitches are used to coordinate the positions of push-pull rod and tool changer. In this way, the process of tool exchange is complex, so it costs much time and the reliability is difficult to ensure. The novel type of dual-cam linkage drive ATC could resolve above problems. The schematic diagram of dual-cam linkage ATC mechanism is shown in Fig. 2. As shown in Fig. 2, Tool push-pull part and toll exchange part are driven by one motor. One power line is motor, cam, push-pull rod, disk spring and tool, and the other power line is motor, coupling, transmission unit, cam, tool changer and tool. These two parts would work synchronously driven by one motor. This structure can simplify tool exchange process and save time remarkably, and rational design of dual-cam linkage can ensure that the working timing of two parts match with each other perfectly, so tool exchange would be more accurately and reliability. Fig. 2. The schematic diagram of dual-cam linkage drive ATC2.2 The Working Principle of Dual-Cam Linkage Drive ATC The main innovation of dual-cam linkage drive ATC is the application of a new mechanism, in which tool push-pull part and tool exchange part are driven by one motor synchronously. The working principle is shown in Fig. 3. Push-pull rod in the spindle is controlled by cam and disk spring, to clamp or un-clamp the tool which is fixed in the front-end of spindle. Camis composed of two cams, a slot cam inlaid on one side of a globoid cam. The slot cam controls the trans-lation movement of tool changer, which can draw tool out from or insert tool into spindle. The globoid cam controls the rotation movement of tool changer, which can exchange tools between tool magazine and spindle. When machining center gives tool exchange signal, motor starts, then push-pull rod and tool exchange manipulator will work in timing separately controlled by cam and cam , which are driven by the same motor. Therefore, the process and control are simple, which make it possible to realize reliable operation and save tool exchange time. 3 Design of Dual-Cam LinkageIn design, dual-cam linkage is the most challenging part. The movement of cam and cam must match with each other perfectly to insure high reliability, and the power transmission unit between motor and cam the structure of machining center. should be designed reasonably based on structure of machining center.3.1 The Matching Design for Cam Timing Chart According to the functional requirements of cams in dual-cam linkage drive ATC, the types of cams are selected, shown in Table 1. Supposed the transmission ratio of two sets of cams is 1:1. In other words, two sets of cams can be regarded as located on a same axis. In order to realize coordinated motion of push-pull rod and tool changer, the cam timing chart are designed as Fig. 4 based on the working principle of dual-cam linkage drive ATC. c is angular displacement of the cams. f is linear or angular displacement of the cam followers. It is mm for translating follower of plate cam, and it is deg for oscillat-ing follower of slot cam and indexing follower of globoid cam. 1. Indexing follower rotates 90anticlockwise and drives tool changer to grasp tools while globoid cam rotates from c =7to c=62. 2. Plate cam pushes push-pull rod to unclamp the tool in the front-end of spindle while it rotates from c =60to c =85 3. Oscillating follower drives the tool changer to draw out tools from spindle and tool magazine while slot cam rotates from c=85to c =152. 4. Indexing follower rotates 180clockwise and drives tool changer to exchange tools between spindle and tool magazine while globoid cam rotates from =122to c =242. 5. Oscillating follower drives the tool changer to insert tools into spindle and tool magazine while slot cam rotates from c =212to c =282. Then, the slot cam invo-lutes 6. Disk spring pushes push-pull rod back to clamp the tool assembled into spindle, and plate cam rotates fromc =280to c=300, then involutes. 7. Indexing follower rotates 90clockwise and drives tool changer to return to for-mer condition while globoid cam rotates from c =302to c =352. Then, the globoid cam involutes. 3.2 The Analysis and Optimum Design of Cam Curve Cam curve is closely related to the kinematics characters, dynamic performance, effi-ciency and service life of cam mechanism. Its important to select optimum cam curve for different working periods. The main features of cam curve are as follows: Dimensionless maximum velocity Vm: It is related to maximum momentum, ac-cording to P=mv, where P is momentum, is mass, and v is velocity. Vmhas influ-ence on pressure angle and size of cam. If m is large, its necessary to choose the cam curve, of which is small. Dimensionless maximum acceleration Am: It is related to maximum inertial force, according to f=ma, where fm is inertial force, m is mass, and a is acceleration. The extrusion force between cam and follower increases with increase of Am , and the am-plitude of vibration force increases too. If velocity curve is discontinuous. Amwould be infinite, and impact vibration will occur. It is reliable to choose a cam curve, of which Am is small, in high-speed cam. Dimensionless maximum jerk Jm: It is the differential of acceleration with respect to time. Jm is mainly related to the vibration of follower. If acceleration jumps on one point, Jm is large in this point and strenuous vibration appears. To reduce vibration, it is better to choose a cam curve, of which Jmis small. In cam curve design of dual-cam linkage, the mainly requirements are: 1. All cams should run sequentially and smoothly. 2. The plate cam and slot cam have no-impact and less vibration in operation to avoid destructing tools. 3. The indexing precision and accurate positioning of globoid cam should be improved to ensure tool exchange accuracy 4. Considered the service life of globoid cam, thin ridge must be avoided. To avoid rigid impact caused by velocity jump and flexible impact caused by ac-celeration jump is the basic principle in selecting cam curve. It is required that the features Vm, Amand Jmare as small as possible, but there is no cam curve, of which the features can be all small. So an optimum design method of cam curve, comprehensive evaluation of cam curve, is presented. Comprehensive evaluation is based on fuzzy theory and maximum degree of mem-bership principle7. All factors related to the project would be concerned, and the solution comes from comprehensive evaluation of them. The process of cam curves optimum design in dual-cam linkage is as follows: 1. According to cam curve design standard and practical design experience, candi-date set of cam curve is founded, which includes polynomial curve, modified trape-zoid curve (MT), modified sine curve (MS), and modified constant velocity curve (MCV)8. 2. Consider the features of cam curve Vm, Amand Jm as evaluation factors. They are specified in Table 2. 3. Through comparing the mainly requirements of cam in dual-cam linkage and the effect aspect of every cam feature, and analyzing the evaluation factors, fuzzy subsets are established. Practical design experience is also invited. 4. Present membership satisfied grade of each cam curve in candidate set. 5. Based on set theory, select optimum cam curve for each cam in dual-cam link-age. The result is shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 5. The result of optimum design for cam curve Compared with Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, it shows that modified sine curve (MS) is selected for plate cam and slot cam, and modified constant velocity curve (MCV) and modified sine curve (MS) are selected for globoid cam in their different working periods. 3.3 The Design of Transmission Unit In dual-cam linkage drive ATC, two sets of cams are driven by one motor, so the transmission unit between them must be designed on the basis of the concrete struc-ture of machining center. In a general way, as shown in Fig. 2, the motor is fixed near the rear end of spindle, and the power from motor pass through speed reducer to drive cam axis directly. Then, the transmission unit should transfer power from cam axis to camaxis. Because of the indexing operation of globoid cam, the torque of camaxis appears positive-negative changes in one cycle, which tends to induce fluctuation. It is necessary to ensure the cam axis runs smoothly, so that it is possible to give full scope to the indexing precision of globoid cam, and the slot cam gets stable operation to avoid breakage when drawing tool out from or assembling tool into spindle. So neither the chain transmission with pulsation nor gear transmission with interval is suitable. The solution is to choose synchronous belt, which is with constant velocity and non-slip, as the transmission unit. The arrangement of synchronous belt transmission is dependent on the concrete structure of machining center. If the size of machining center is large, it is permissible to design multiple level synchronous belt transmission as shown in Fig. 2.4 The Application Example Dual-cam linkage drive ATC has been applied in MDH65 Horizontal Machining Center. The ATC structure is similar to the one shown in Fig. 2. The cams are designed according to the above analysis, and the design result is shown in Fig. 6. Transmission unit is constituted by two level synchronous belt. The motor is fixed near the rear end of spindle. Based on the limitation of the structure of MDH65, a set of cam-linkage mechanism including a couple of bevel gears is proposed to drive tool changer. Based on the virtual prototype technology, a motion simulation of the ATC is car-ried out. Supposed a tool exchange cycle time is 2 seconds, we get motion curves of two sets of cams from motion simulation. The displacement curve diagram of cams is shown in Fig. 7. The displacement curves are continuous and smooth, without jump, and match with Fig. 5. As shown in Fig. 8, the velocity curves of cams are all continuous. Slot cam and globoid cam velocity curves are smooth. There are two cusps in plate cam velocity curve, but one happens in middle time of plate cam pushing push-pull rod and the other happens in middle time of disk spring pushing push-pull rod back, so they wouldnt cause impact when tool holder unclamps or clamps the tool. From velocity curves, no rigid impact would occur to cause damage. As shown in Fig. 9, it is acceleration curve diagram of cams. We can see there are several cusps in plate cam and globoid cam acceleration curves. They would cause flexible impact and cant be avoided easily, but that is acceptable in a certain range. Fig. 7. Displacement curve Fig. 8. Velocity curve Fig. 9. Acceleration curveThe result of motion simulation shows that every part of the ATC has noninterference;two sets of cams work in coordination; tool exchange process is accurate and reliable. In practical test, the number of normal tool exchange operation times has reached 20000 and the minimal tool to tool change time (T-T) is 2 seconds.5 ConclusionIn this paper, a novel dual-cam linkage drive ATC is derived based on the typical cam drive ATC. The mechanism and working principle are described. Analysis and design of key structure, dual-cam linkage, are introduced in details. The method comprehen-sive evaluation is invited in cam curve design. An application example is presented for demonstrating this new type of ATC, and motion simulation is carried out. The result shows that dual-cam linkage drive ATC works normally applied in horizontal machining center. It simplifies tool exchange process remarkably through dual-cam linkage. Tool exchange efficiency and reliability are improved. Along with the devel-opment of machine tool industry, this new type of ATC has a wide application prospect.
