Based on the achievements of early works, a volumetric error modeling flow which is based on multi-body system theory is put forward. The flow includes 4 key steps mainly: describing structure, setting up coordinate system, creating characteristic matrix and generating volumetric error model are respectively. The operating method of every step is discussed in detail and the solving formula is given. At last, taking the VMC650 machining center of milling and boring which is developed by a machine tool factory as example, the validity of modeling flow is verified. This study can be used as a reference for opening automatic modeling system.

Cause of machining error for NC Machine Tools is described, and principle of NC machinings error compensation on the basis of the existing in-line detection model of NC machine tools is analyzed in this paper. Regularity of error Modeling based on multi-body system is found,accordingly, we will find the corresponding characteristic matrix and transformation matrix if location features and sport features of the adjacent body are confirmed. Then, formula of error model is found, and we can get numerical solution and compensate error according to the identified error parameter. As a result, the machining accuracy of machine tools can be greatly improved.

The geometrical error modeling of the numerically controlled (NC) lathe is the key technique to kinematics design, precision analysis and error compensation. The study gives out the modeling process of the generally geometrical error model based on the multi-body system theory for the multi-axis NC machine tools. By the multi-system theory, using the low series body arrays to describe the complex mechanical system, the article has finished the geometrical error modeling of the numerically controlled lathe, analyzed the influence on the model of error of perpendicularity between the linear axes. The modeling method is highly-efficient and can not be affected by the structure of the NC machine tools. The error compensation and command correction can be implemented by the geometric errors model.

The machining accuracy of NC machine can be improved significantly through the error compensation. The kernels of (multi-body system)MBS theories are that the number arrays of low-order body are used to describe the topological structures which are taken to generalize and refine MBS, and the characteristic matrix are employed to represent the relative positions and gestures between any two bodies in MBS. Based on the theory of rigid body dynamics and homogeneous coordinate transformation techniques, the space error model of five-axis gantry NC machine can be established, the modified NC instructions can be obtained and it prepares well ready for the software error compensation and the practical application. Gyratory motion of five-axis NC machine will generate the coupling of translational motion, so it is different from the three-axis NC machine in the process of error compensation and we need to decoupling.

To measure motion accuracy, including that of the rotary axis of five-axis machining center that have been widely introduced into production sites recently, a device with three displacement sensors combined to measure the center position of the master ball was invented and will be added to the International Standard. Such measurement devices are not difficult to produce in principle, but the commercially available products are expensive. This study discusses a threedimensional (3D) coordinate measurement device with multiple displacement sensors, discussing it in terms of the test standards of the machines to which the device has been applied and in relation to devices which have been studied, developed, and released. Our measurement device is then designed and produced, and its measurement accuracy is confirmed.

This article intends to provide an error compensation system for five-axis machine tools. A volumetric error model is established with homogeneous transformation matrix method, from which compensation values of both orientation and position errors can be obtained. Thirty-seven errors on a five-axis machine tool are classified into three categories – functional, random, and negligible errors, among which the effect of the first one on volumetric accuracy is considered as great enough to be included in this model. Some typical modeling methods are discussed on positioning and straightness errors, considering both geometric and thermal effects. Then, we propose a compensation implementation technique based on the function of external machine zero point shift and Ethernet data communication protocol for machine tools. Finally, laser diagonal measurements have been conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed volumetric error compensation system.

Motion accuracy of NC machine tools is directory copied onto the machined shape. However, it is known that the motion accuracy is deteriorated by several error courses; geometric and dynamic motion errors of feed axes. In this study, in order to enhance the motion accuracy of NC machine tools, a method that modifies the NC program based on the normal direction error at each command point on the designed path is developed. In the method, the error vector between the commanded and estimated machined shape is obtained. The NC program for the motion is modified by adding the obtained error vector with the opposite sign. In order to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method, 5-axis motion tests for cone-frustum cutting which is widely applied to the accuracy evaluation of 5-axis machining centers are carried out. At the first, it is confirmed that the proposed method can compensate the dynamic synchronous errors based on the feedback positions and angles of the axes. In addition, it is also confirmed that the proposed method can compensate both of dynamic and geometric errors based on the tool center point trajectory measured by a ball-bar system. As the results, it is clarified that the proposed method can effectively enhance the motion accuracy of the 5-axis machining center.

The effect of geometric error on machining accuracy was researched by multi-body system theory, as well as homogeneous coordinate transformation method. Taking a vertical machining center as example, topological structure of the machine tool was described by lower body array. Lower body array of the machining center, motion freedom between adjacent bodies and geometric errors of the vertical machining center were analyzed. 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 influence on the machining accuracy were identified. The research results provide guidance for analyze of geometric errors on machining accuracy.
