PT - JOURNAL ARTICLE AU - Hermansky, Dominik AU - Marek, Jiri TI - Steel-concrete Composite Material in CNC Machine Tool Structures DP - 2016 Oct 31 TA - Acta Mechanica Slovaca PG - 56--60 VI - 20 IP - 2 AID - 10.21496/ams.2016.015 IS - 13352393 AB - The paper proposes a brief approach to utilization of steel-concrete composite in machine tool structures. It presents the possibility of replacing conservative solutions in machine frames based on traditional metallic materials like a gray cast iron or a steel. First part of the paper is focused on determining a whole spectrum of influences, that are must be taken into account during the design stage of machine tool supporting structure. Materials and topology optimization of machine frames are described in the next section of the article. The main part of paper deals with new concept of machine tool structure material. Namely steel-concrete composite developed in order to increase dynamic parameters of machine tool.
