Abstract

In this paper, a methodology to assess machine tool errors quickly is suggested using a touch probe and a cube array artifact. Parameterized error models derived are expressed of model coefficient vectors and backlash errors to be determined. To determine the unknown model coefficient vectors, a cube array artifact is proposed. Considering CMM measurement data of cube vertex coordinates. error vectors for all axes ate obtained and used to complete the error model. Some simulation results show that the suggested error model can follow the true values within 10$\mu\textrm{m}$. To verify the error model, a circular part with two concentric circles is measured and simulated. The results show that the differences between CMM and OMM radius errors are smaller than 15$\mu\textrm{m}$.
