This paper proposes a calibration method for a parallel mechanism type machine tool (XMINI, Exechon Enterprises L.L.C.). In this method, the kinematic parameters are calculated using forward kinematics and the least squares method from the results obtained by a coordinate measuring machine. By using an articulated arm coordinate measuring machine (AACMM), we can measure a wide space, and the measuring machine position do not have to be determined strictly. This paper provides a solution for the forward kinematics problem to identify the kinematic parameters. The results from the kinematic parameter calculation are evaluated using the experimental results from an actual machine.

A new CCD camera calibration method based on the translation of Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) is proposed. The CMM brings the CCD camera to produce the relative translation with respect to the center of the white ceramic standard sphere along the X, Y, Z axis, and the coordinates of the different positions of the calibration characteristic point in the probe coordinate system can be generated. Meanwhile, the camera captures the image of the white ceramic standard sphere at every position, and the coordinates of the calibration characteristic point in the computer frame coordinate system can be registered. The calibration mathematic model was established, and the calibration steps were given and the calibration system was set up. The comparing calibration result shows that precision of this method is equivalent to that of the special calibration method, and the difference between the calibrating data of these two methods is within ±1μm.

Error compensation technology is used for improving accuracy and reducing costs. Dynamic error compensation techniques of coordinate measuring machine (CMM) are still under study; the major problem is a lack of suitable models, which would be able to correctly and simply relate the dynamic errors with the structural and operational parameters. To avoid the complexity of local dynamic deformation measurement and modeling, a comprehensive calibration method is employed. Experimental research reveals specific qualities of dynamic Abbe errors; the results exceed the scope of ISO 10360-2 calibration method, showing the ISO 10360-2 dynamic error evaluation deficiencies. For calibrating the dynamic Abbe errors, the differential measurement method is presented based on the measurements of the internal and external dimensions. Referring probe tip radius correction, the dynamic Abbe errors compensation method is proposed for CMM end-users and is easy to use.

This paper deals with parameter identification for a three-degrees-of-freedom (3-DOF) parallel manipulator, based on measurement redundancy. A redundant passive chain with a displacement sensor connects the moving stage to the machine frame. The passive chain is sequentially placed in three directions at approximately right angles to one another to reliably detect the motion of the stage. Linear encoders measure changes in lengths of the passive chain and the three actuated chains of the manipulator during traveling of the moving stage. Comparison between the measured length and the length calculated from forward kinematics of the 3-DOF manipulator reveals a length error of the passive chain. The least-squares method using a Jacobian matrix corrects 27 kinematic parameters so that the length errors of the passive chain are minimized. The above calculations were accomplished in both numerical simulations and experiments employing a coordinate measuring machine based on the parallel manipulator. Moreover, a length measurement simulation of gauge block measurement and a measurement experiment using the measuring machine were performed to verify the identified parameters.

The Articulated Arm Coordinate Measuring Machine (AACMM) is a new type of non-orthogonal system precision instrument with the advantages of large measuring range, small volume, low weight and portability. To improve the measurement accuracy of AACMMs, an error analysis and calibration method for AACMMs is proposed. The kinematic model of the AACMM was established with D-H model, and then the error model of the AACMM was established on the basis of kinematic model with total differential transforming method and the singular value decomposition of Jacobian matrix and the decomposition of orthogonal matrix elementary row transform. Finally, the error model was validated by position error residual calculation. The error model provides a theoretical foundation for calibration and compensation of the AACMM.

A new 5-DOF flexible coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is introduced in this paper, which uses REVO system produced by Renishaw. According to the D-H method, the mathematical model is built, and then the error model of the flexible CMM is derived. The parameter calibration based on the nonlinear least square method is analyzed theoretically. Due to the disadvantages of Gauss-Newton method, LM method is researched, which improved the singularity of the coefficient matrix. The calibration analysis is a basis for improving accuracy of the flexible CMM.
