This project focuses on the development of a high-speed fast tool servo for diamond turning, targeting operational capability at 10 kHz or higher with a 5 mm stroke (P-V). The first Fast Tool Servo (FTS) achieved a 20 mm stroke at 2 kHz, while previous Ultramill models operated at 500 Hz and 5 kHz. Key challenges include actuator selection, structural design, heat generation management, control system development, and machining experiments. The outcome is a compact design capable of 10 kHz with a closed-loop feedback system ensuring optimal performance and dynamic values.
