In this work a new efficient finite element (FE) model for rolling contact [RiBEM (rigid ball with equivalent material)] is shortly presented. The RiBEM model is used to efficiently compute the eigenmodes of a linear guide system. Experimental modal analysis of the real linear guide shows with 5 % error a very good correlation with the numerical results. Although the new contact model reduces computational time by more than ten times compared with the standard FE model, it is still too expensive for use within whole machine tool models. For this reason an equivalent, mesh independent and geometrically scalable model (rolling contact spring) based on the Hertz theory is introduced and also validated with the help of modal measurements. As a justification for the presented work, results with stiffness data from the manufacturer are also presented and less correlation with the experiment is found in this case.
