Parallel manipulators are generally associated with high speed, stiffness, and repeatability.
Nonetheless, after decades of development, their industrial uptake is still limited when …

Abstract Machine tool have traditionally been developed for the manufacture of new parts
and to be operated in workshop environments. With a remit of addressing clearly defined …

Machinability is a generalized framework that attempts to quantify the response of a
workpiece material to mechanical cutting, which has been developed as one of the key …

Five-axis machine tools are subject to highly coupled geometric errors that significantly
affect their machining accuracy. Existing geometric error compensation methods do not …

For the rotary axes, the position-dependent geometric errors (PDGEs) and position-
independent geometric errors (PIGEs) affect their rotational accuracy concurrently …

This paper presents a new machining test for identifying the geometric and thermal errors of
rotary axes for a five-axis machine tool. A disc-shaped test piece containing 12 rectangular …

The transition from conventional standalone metrology to integrated metrology has been
accelerating in advanced manufacturing over the past decade. This keynote paper defines …

With an increasing demand of photoelectric components, the micro/ultraprecision machining
technology has become more and more important. However, for some particular …

This paper proposes a method for identification of geometric error and the improvement of
measuring accuracy of rotary axes. The primary objective of this work concentrates on the …

The on-machine measurement system can effectively improve the machining efficiency and
accuracy of the optics in the grinding stage, but the common grinding machine has large …
