摘要：Structural material in machine tool plays important role in deciding the machine tool precision. It sharesa major part in dampening the vibration generated during machining. Hence, for precision machine tools, vibrationdamping of structural material has become an important property along with stiffness and strength for designing thestructure. Recent trend in research shows that polymer composites are replacing cast iron and steel as they provideimproved damping accompanied with comparable stiffness and strength. Among all the polymer composites, polymerconcrete has found to be the promising material. This study presents a literature survey on polymer concrete formachine tool structural application. Cast iron, steel and other conventional materials are compared with polymerconcrete. The review summarizes the research findings reported by different authors by using polymer concrete indifferent types of machine tool structures. Different varieties of particulate reinforcement, matrix and other fillers,reported in literatures are studied as to understand their influence on final properties of polymer concrete for machinetool structures.
