The quality of heavy-duty machine tool foundations can drastically affect the operating life and working precision of the tool, and the high cost of manufacture has drawn a lot of attention. This article summarized the research status of the relevant literature on the characteristics, vibration isolation, foundation optimization, and quality inspection of heavy-duty machine tool-foundation system, induced the influencing laws of the influencing factors of the system, reviewed the highlights and achievements in the research of heavy machine tool-foundation system at present, and put forward some problems and development directions existing in the research of heavy machine tool-foundation system. It lays a foundation for realizing the judgment of the concrete foundation quality and improving the processing precision and the maintenance of the heavy machine tool.
