A new method and instrument for measuring circular motion error of NC machine tools H.L. Liu*, H.M. Shi, B. Lia, X. Li National CNC Control System Research Center, Mechanical Department, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430074, China Zhanjiang Ocean University, Zhanjiang, Guangdong 524025, China Abstract A new method and instrument for measuring circular motion error of numerical control (NC) machine tools are described in this paper. The instrument consists of a linear displacement transducer bar with two balls at each end and a high accuracy rotary encoder. The radius variations are detected by the transducer and the rotation angle of the bar is measured by the rotary encoder while the machine is moving in a circular path. The measuring area is circular except for a small area around the center of the disc. The bar can be expanded and contracted along its axis for different application. The instrument has a compact structure and can be installed on a machine tool simply and quickly. It is shown by the experimental results that the instrument has good repeatability and high precision of measuring circular motion trajectories. The instrument can be widely used especially in the error-compensation and error-source project in the industrial application. q 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Introduction In recent years, the precision machining process has attracted much attention from numerous investigators. One of its important tasks for error-compensation and error source diagnosis is to map the volumetric errors of a machine tool [1]. Current techniques have the ability to measure parametric error function for each of the machine’s axes, for instance, the positioning and linear motion accuracy. However, it is still difficult to measure precisely the circular motion error let alone a more general motion trajectory. Several devices and methods
