Development of Machine Tool Operational Properties

This paper presents the main directions in the development of machine tools and the practical implementations of new technologies by machine tool producers, aimed at meeting the business requirements. The possibilities of applying intelligent functions in high-performance machine tools and the trends in the development of intelligent machine tools are discussed. The vital importance of the holistic modelling and numerical simulation of the operational properties of machine tools at all the stages of their creation and the necessity of integrating the machine tool with the control system and the process during simulation and virtualization are highlighted.
