摘要

Geometric errors identification of revolving axle of multi-axis machine tool has encountered a great difficulty in geometric errors compensation. This paper describes a new method to identify geometric errors inherent to revolving axle of multi-axis machine tool based on a ball-bar system. Under RTCP (Rotation Around Tool Center Point) or RPCP (Rotation Around Part Center Point) function, the displacement errors of revolving axle in X, Y and Z direction can be obtained by the ball-bar system respectively at every measurement angle. With the corresponding identification algorithm proposed in this paper, the whole six geometric errors of revolving axle can be identified. This new method is suitable for any type of multi-axis machine tool and without structural constraints. To confirm the validity of the proposed method, an experiment has been conducted on a five-axis machine tool, and the results show that this method is effective and applicable.
