In order to improve machining accuracy of machining center, the effect of geometric error on machining accuracy was researched by multi-body system theory. Taking a vertical machining center as example, topological structure of the machining center was described by lower body array. Geometric errors of the bodies in the multi-body system were expressed by homogeneous coordinate transformation. Error model for machining accuracy was deduced and geometric errors having great influence on the machining accuracy were identified. The research results show that, straightness errors and linear displacement errors in three directions have direct influence on machining accuracy, and the effect on machining accuracy caused by angle errors are related to the dimensions of the machining center and travel distance of the three axes. The research results provide guidance for analysis on sensitivity of geometric errors.

Parts of geometric error coupled into space error is the main reason that affects machining accuracy of machine tools; therefore, how to determine the effect of geometric error to the machining accuracy and then assigning geometry precision of parts economically is a difficult problem in machine tool designing process. Therefore, based on multi-body system theory, a sensitivity analysis method of geometric error is put forward in this paper. Let’s take precision vertical machining center for an example. Firstly, an accuracy model of machining center is established based on multi-body system theory, and with 21 geometric errors obtained through experimental verification, key error sources affecting the machining accuracy are finally identified by sensitivity analysis. The example analysis shows that the proposed method can effectively identify the main geometric errors of parts that have great influence on volumetric error of machine tool, and thus provides important theoretical basis to improve the accuracy of machine tool economically.

Geometric errors of a machining center can cause great influence on machining accuracy, and these geometric errors should be identified and compensated in the actual working conditions. Taking a three-axis vertical machining center as example, 21 geometric errors of the machine tool were solved. By using the 12-line method based on a laser interferometer, identification principle of the positioning errors, straightness errors, pitch errors, yaw errors, roll errors and squareness errors are presented, and all of the 21 geometric errors of the machining center were identified. Geometric errors having great influence effect on machining accuracy can be identified. The research results provide guidance for analyze of geometric errors of machining center.

Balancing the cost and processing precision of machine tool by the method of error allocation without affecting the machining performances is a critical problem in the Machine tool industry. In this paper, a new accuracy allocation method for multi-axis machine tool based on Multi-body system theory, manufacturing and quality loss costs and relationship between tolerances and accuracy parameters of components is proposed. This optimization method is performed with Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II algorithm using Isight and Matlab software. A three-axis vertical machine tool is taken as an example to demonstrate the method, and the optimization results show that the accuracy allocation method proposed is feasible in the optimization of geometric errors on the premise of satisfying machining accuracy requirements.

S-shaped machining test is proposed for ISO standard to evaluate the motion accuracy of five-axis machining centers. However, it have not been investigated that which factor mainly influences the quality of the finished S-shape workpieces. This study focuses on the influence of the quality of NC program and geometric errors of rotary axes onto the quality of finished surface. Actual cutting tests and simulations are carried out to the investigation. As the results, it is clarified that the tolerance of NC program has a great influence onto the quality. It is also clarified that the geometric errors have great influences onto the quality. However, it is difficult to evaluate the influence of each geometric error because all geometric errors make glitches at the same point on the machined surface. It can be concluded that the proposed S-shape machining test can be used as the total demonstration of the machining techniques.

Heavy duty machine tool has some special points, such as large size, complex structure, long cycle at Installation and commissioning, high requirements assembly processes and so on. Therefore, this paper established a mathematical model to transform the origin parts of the gantry machining center into assembly special form and creates a software as a plug-in for Solidworks based on it, proposes an easy but very practical assembly method based on Multi-body system under virtual environment. This method can calculate assembly deviation caused by manufacturing tolerance very quickly, and bring the sensitivity information clearly. Assembly deviation sensitivity and assembly method proposed in this paper can provide a way for the virtual assembly of heavy-duty CNC machine tools, Thus provide an important theoretical basis to improve the performance of the machine

Gear Measuring Center(GMC) is commonly used to test error of the tooth surface of the gear, whose geometric accuracy directly impacts on the accuracy of measurement. How to quickly and accurately detect space geometric error of the measuring machine and compensate becomes the essential means of high-precision measurements. According to the problem above, in the paper, three-beams laser detection technology is proposed. The detection of the geometric errors of the linear axis was achieved. The accurate measurement for the position and attitude of the plane mirror on measurement seat was achieved based on laser telemetry principle. The positioning error, the pitching angle errors, the deflection angle errors and the straightness errors were separated. And then based on multi-body system theory, by using of homogeneous coordinate transformation, the error compensation model of 4-axis measuring machine which includes three shifting pairs and one revolute pair was established, and the algorithm was given in the paper. The theoretical foundation for real-time compensation of 4-axis GMC was established. The geometric errors of GMC can be improved by the method of the error detection and compensation. The method plays a very important role in high-precision measurements.
