The Use of HYDROSTATIC LUBRICATION IN MACHINE TOOLS

Abstract

The author summarises a number of recently published papers describing some difficulties which arise in machine tool development and research and concerning mainly the inaccuracies caused by irregular slideway movement and regenerative chatter of the cutting tool. The author has also brought together some papers describing the dynamic characteristics of hydrostatic lubrication and shows how this form of lubrication can be used to overcome some of these difficulties.
