In this study, a measurement method of double ball-bar is proposed to measure the geometric errors of an ultra-precision roll mold machine tool. A volumetric error model of the machine tool is established to investigate the effects of the geometric errors to a radius error and a cylindricity of the roll mold. A measurement path is suggested for the geometric errors, and a ball-bar equation is derived to represent the relation between the geometric errors and a measured data of the double ball-bar. Set-up errors, which are inevitable at the double ball-bar installation, also are analyzed and are removed mathematically for the measurement accuracy. In addition, standard uncertainty of the measured geometric errors is analyzed to determine the experimental condition. Finally, the proposed method is tested and verified through simulation.

This paper presents an useful technique for assessing the volumetric error in multi_axis machine tools using the kinematic double ball bar and 3 dimensional spherical contouring. The developed system proposes the 3 dimensional spherical contour for the error analysis. The developed system input the measured radial data, analysing the volumetric errors such as positional, strightness, angle, and squareness errors, etc. The developed system has been tested in a practical machine tool, and showed high

In this paper, double ball-bar is used to estimate the geometric errors of a rotary table, which includes one-axial motion, two-radial motions and two-tilt motions, except the angular positioning error. To simplify the measurement procedures, three measurement steps have been designed and developed. At each measurement step, one end of the double ball-bar is fixed at the nose of spindle and the other end is located on the rotary table. And specific circular test path is planned to keep the distance between two balls as constant at ideal case. The relationship including the geometric errors of a rotary table and the measured distance between two balls which is distorted by the geometric errors is defined by using ball-bar equation. Each geometric error is modeled as $4^{th}$ order polynomial considering $C^1$-continuity. Finally the coefficients of polynomial are calculated by least-square method. Simulation is done to check the validation of the suggested method considering set-up errors and measurement noise. Suggested method is applied to estimate geometric errors of a rotary table of a 5-axis machine tool.

In this paper, the radial error of a rotary table at five-axis machine tool is evaluated by utilizing ISO 230-2 and estimation method using double ball-bar. The geometric error of a rotary table is defined as position dependent geometric errors or position independent geometric errors according to their physical character. Then estimation method of geometric errors using double ball-bar is simply summarized including measurement path, parametric modeling and least squares approach. To estimate representative radial error, offset error, set-up error which affect to the double ball-bar data, mean value of measured data including CCW/CW-direction are used at estimation process. Radial errors are separated from measured data and used for evaluation with ISO 230-2. Finally, suggested evaluation method is applied to a rotary table at five-axis machine tool and its result is analyzed to improve the accuracy of the rotary table.

This paper presents an useful technique for assessing the volumetric errors in multi-axis machine tools using the kinematic double ball bar. This system has been developed based on the volumetric error map which describes the 3 dimensional errors of machine tools. The developed system inputs the measured radial data of 3 different planes, respectively XY,YZ,ZX, analysing the volumetric errors such as positional. straightness, angle, and squareness errors, etc. The developed system has been tested in a practical machine tool, and showed high potential for the error assessment of multi-axis machine tools.
