A Brief Review on Cooling Methodology of Spindle for Machine Tool Application

Abstract

A machine tool is a basic industrial need for manufacturing automobile components, machinery, railways, medical equipment, defense, electronic and plastic industries. An increase in temperature is a major parameter to generating heat in machine tools, which affects machining accuracy and repeatability. The spindle is a major source of heat generation inside the machine tool. So, it is mandatory to design a suitable cooling system for the spindle to get high accuracy and high productivity of the machine tool.
