Hydraulic system used in cnc machines

AI Thread Summary
Hydraulic systems have historically been used in CNC machines for spindle drives and table positioning, though modern machines predominantly utilize electric drives. There is interest in exploring additional applications of hydraulic systems in contemporary CNC machining beyond what is currently known. Hydraulic copying systems were employed in semi-automatic machines prior to the advent of CNC technology. The hydraulic method allows for precise control by alternating small positions to perform various functions. Overall, the discussion seeks to expand knowledge on the uses of hydraulic systems in modern CNC applications.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish with this information?
 
Actually I Want to gather information about uses of hydraulic system in modern cnc machining...So please help me with more uses apart from the earlier.
 
At one time some large machines used hydraulic systems for the spindle drives and table positioning drives . Not so common now since most new machines have all electric drives .

In the period before actual cnc came along there were several types of semi automatic machine that used hydraulic copying systems .
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
