A high-speed ceramic motorized spindle equipped with high-performance structural ceramic shaft and fully-ceramic ball bearings without inner rings is designed and developed. Internal structure parameters of ceramic ball bearings are designed and optimized based on its failure mechanism analysis. The preload and lubrication condition of high-speed ceramic motorized spindle-bearing system are optimized. The high-speed ceramic spindle prototype is assembled with high precision successfully, and its performance test and analyses are finished. The test results show that high-speed ceramic spindle can reduce the high-speed rotational centrifugal force and inertia force and increase the rigidity, rotation precision and life of spindle-bearing system greatly, because of engineering ceramics' extraordinary physical properties, such as high hardness, low thermal expansion, light weight, high abrasion resistant and good chemical and thermal stability, so it fulfils very well the high-speed and precision requirements of motorized spindle system.
