Abstract: Many kinds of the heat sources in a CNC milling machine produce thermal deformation. This deformation affects the relative displacement between the work-piece and the cutter, causes the manufacturing errors, and influences the machining accuracy of the part. Therefore, it is very important to reduce thermal deformation to improve the machining accuracy. Controlling the thermal error will be relative to the theory of temperature sensitive point, however, it is difficult to find the points by experiments. In this paper, thermal characteristics of ZK7640 CNC milling machine are simulated by analyzing the thermal boundary conditions and using the finite element (FEM) software ANSYS. Moreover, many experiments are done to test the analysis' validity.
