Abstract

This study investigates the influences of constant compensations which are produced by capillary or constant flow pump on the dynamic characteristics of a circular worktable supported by a closed-type hydrostatic thrust bearing. The dynamic behaviors of this worktable are analyzed by using Runge-Kutta method to solve the coupled motion equation of worktable and pressure equations of hydrostatic film flow. For various supply pressure parameters, external loads, and varieties of design parameters, the dynamic responses of worktable subjected to both external excitations of harmonic force and step force are simulated, respectively. The results reveal the influences of both constant compensations on the dynamic characteristics of hydrostatic bearing by the different responses of worktable and make the appropriate parameters of design can be found for the worktable-bearing system. The accomplishments of this study will help the designers who deal with the hydrostatic- bearing compensated by constant restrictions to select the design parameters to approach the optimum condition.
