Abstract
Generally feed drives for CNC machine tools have a very simple kinematic structure. But the optimal feed drives design is a problem which consists of an appropriate selection of AC or DC motors and mechanical transmission elements, which must satisfy some conditions as a system. Because of the extensive calculations and optimization algorithms, original computer programs are developed.
