To address the problems of the low accuracy of geometric error identification and incomplete identification results of the linear axis detection of computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools, a new 21-item geometric error identification method based on double ball-bar measurement was proposed. The model between the double ball-bar reading and the geometric error term in each plane was obtained according to the three-plane arc trajectory measurement. The mathematical model of geometric error components of CNC machine tools is established, and the error fitting coefficients are solved through the beetle antennae search particle swarm optimization (BAS–PSO) algorithm, in which 21 geometric errors, including roll angle errors, were identified. Experiments were performed to compare the optimization effect of the BAS–PSO and PSO and BAS and genetic particle swarm optimization (GA–PSO) algorithms. Experimental results show that the PSO algorithm is trapped in the local optimum, and the BAS–PSO is superior to the other three algorithms in terms of convergence speed and stability, has higher identification accuracy, has better optimization performance, and is suitable for identifying the geometric error coefficient of CNC machine tools. The accuracy and validity of the identification results are verified by the comparison with the results of the individual geometric errors detected through laser interferometer experiments. The identification accuracy of the double ball-bar is below 2.7 µm. The proposed identification method is inexpensive, has a short processing time, is easy to operate, and possesses a reference value for the identification and compensation of the linear axes of machine tools.

Thermal errors of CNC machine tools was checked and measured by double-ball bar in this paper. Mathematical model of measuring thermal error of machine tools by DBB on the principle of its basic measurement was derived. Combining it with kinematics model of machine tool, the identification law of error component parameters was established when thermal error was checked and measured by DBB. Thus, all of the thermal error component would be separated from the synthetical error. Finally, the entire analysis was provided to adjust machine tool and actualize error compensation of machine tool through grasping main factors influencing the machining precision of machine tool.

Error compensation technology offers a significant means for improving the geometric accuracy of CNC machine tools (MTs) as well as extending their service life. Measurement and identification are important prerequisites for error compensation. In this study, a measurement system, mainly composed of a self-developed micro-angle sensor and an L-shape standard piece, is proposed. Meanwhile, a stepwise identification method, based on an integrated error model, is established. In one measurement, four degrees-of-freedom errors, including two-dimensional displacement and two-dimensional angle of a linear guideway, can be obtained. Furthermore, in accordance with the stepwise identification method, the L-shape standard piece is placed in three different planes, so that the measurement and identification of all 21 geometric errors can be implemented. An experiment is carried out on a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) to verify the system. The residual error of the angle error, translation error and squareness error are 1.5″, 2 μm and 3.37″, respectively, and these are compared to the values detected by a Renishaw laser interferometer.

A quantitative analysis to identify the key geometric error elements and their coupling is the prerequisite and foundation for improving the precision of machine tools. The purpose of this paper is to identify key geometric error elements and compensate for geometric errors accordingly. The geometric error model of three-axis machine tool is built on the basis of multibody system theory; and the quantitative global sensitivity analysis (GSA) model of geometric error elements is constructed by using extended Fourier amplitude sensitivity test method. The crucial geometric errors are identified; and stochastic characteristics of geometric errors are taken into consideration in the formulation of building up the compensation strategy. The validity of geometric error compensation based on sensitivity analysis is verified on a high-precision three-axis machine tool with open CNC system. The experimental results show that the average compensation rates along theX,Y, andZdirections are 59.8%, 65.5%, and 73.5%, respectively. The methods of sensitivity analysis and geometric errors compensation presented in this paper are suitable for identifying the key geometric errors and improving the precision of CNC machine tools effectively.
