Minimum Zone Evaluation of Symmetry Error for Flatness to Flatness Based on the New Generation GPS
Least square method (LSM) is the most popular method used to evaluate machining error nowadays. However, LSM is likely to overestimate the error value, therefore its solution is only approximate and rather than minimum. In order to obtain the minimum, we study the principle of the minimum zone tolerance method (MZT), analyze the characteristics of the new generation GPS, and give the minimum zone mathematic model of the symmetry error for flatness to flatness. For the purpose of optimizing the mathematical model, this paper describes the application of adaptive genetic algorithm to achieve the best estimation. Simultaneously, the process of optimization is realized by MALTAB. Finally, the experiment shows that the evaluation results of MZT is better than evaluation results of LSM.
