Abstract

In this paper, a system that is used to measure dynamically all kinds of geometric errors of CNC machines is introduced, and some experiment results are given. The experiment results showed some significant differences between the static and dynamic error characteristics. Through analyses of the dynamic signals in both time and space fields, some error resources of the CNC machines can be found. In addition, any shape of contouring errors can be directly measured by this system without using a ball bar on other devices, which provides a simple and practical way to evaluate contouring errors of CNC machines.
