As the key functional component of the machine tool, the reliability test of the spindle is necessary to verify the reliability of the machine tool. In the reliability test, the cutting load model is the guideline of workload simulation and is the prerequisite to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the long-term experiment. However, the existing load models usually aim at the specific cutting force at the tool-tip, thereby ignoring the versatility, maneuverability, and accuracy of the load model when applied in the spindle reliability test. In this study, a general cutting load model for the machine tool spindle is established in a form of radial-axial-torque decomposition, and the radial force is simplified as non-rotating status for the maneuverability of conducting a load simulation. The difference between rotating and non-rotating radial force on the reliability calculation is also discussed and corrected using bearing fatigue analysis. A spindle reliability test platform with radial force, axial force, and torque simulation is developed according to the cutting load model, while the loading spectrum is compiled for conducting the spindle reliability test. This research is of great engineering value for the designing of the spindle reliability test.
