Piezoelectric tool actuator for precision turning

High precision machining has the potential of increasing the efficiency of machining operations and lowering costs in the manufacturing of many machined parts. This thesis investigates the use of a piezoelectric tool/actuator designed for the precision turning of cylindrical shafts. The piezo too...
