The dynamic coupling problem for the self-designed “3 parallel ∪ 2 series” mixed-type numerical control machine tool is studied based on the singular constraints and position coupling factors in order to ensure that the machine can have better dynamic characteristics and a higher quality of parts during the process of machining complex surface. This article puts forward a method based on singular constraints and the coupling factor. A whole dynamic coupling model of series and parallel mechanism is established and the coupling factors are determined. Numerical and parameter simulations of mechanism are analyzed and the real working space is obtained. And this article takes the simulation of the process of machining complex part and the force of the machine tool. The simulation results show that the established dynamics model is credible and reliable on the basis of considering singular constraints and position coupling factors. It is proved that the simulation data can correspond to the established model and the situation of force and kinematic suits the working mechanism. The cutting experiment of complex surface parts was took and the machine tool was run more smoothly and faster than the conventional machine tools. The velocity of the machine is regular and circular and there are no kinematic singularity data on the machine’s trajectory. The trajectory of the tool is in the working space completely and the accuracy of the part is good. The surface roughness results show that the kinematics accuracy of the machine tool is good. The interference fringe results show that the force of the machine tool is uniform. As there is no singular coupled vibration and collision, it is proved that the theoretical analysis is correct. The dynamics model of 3PTT serial and parallel mechanism is complete in this article. And the working space of the mechanism is obtained on the base of analysis of the singular constraints and position coupling factors. The article has carried out the dynamic simulation and processing experimental verification. Not only the method and process of this article was solved by dynamics coupling problem of 3PTT-2R numerical control machine tool actively, real-time and effectively, but also it was laid a foundation for accurate control of numerical control machine tools.
