Design of polymerconcret frame of production machine

This work describes the construction of polymer - concrete frame of a machine tool. In particular it deals with the proposal of cast iron frame for the surface grinding machine BHP from the company KMS Brno, which should at all point replace the original cast iron frame of the same machine. The whole work is divided into two sections. First section consists of the research including a brief mention of the grinding technology in the reference to the construction of the frame of the grinding machine. Further the work deals with the theoretical knowledge regarding construction of frames of the machine. Finally it describes issues related to the technology of polymer – concrete and the production technology of parts from this material. Second section of the work consists of an engineering proposal of polymer – concreted frame considering the requirement of the main functional dimensions related from the structural measures. Subsequently the system approach and the principals for transition to the polymer – concrete construction of the grinding machine are made. The work concludes with the analysis and comparison of the two concepts (cast iron frame and polymer – concrete) in the terms of the Finite element method
