This paper presents the design of a precise “ball-column” device to efficiently and accurately measure the geometric error terms of both rotary axes of the five-axis machine tool. A geometric error measurement method of spherical contact was proposed based on the influence of the geometric error term from a five-axis machine tool rotating axis on the integrated geometric error of the machine tool. A multiple degree of freedom, step-by-step contact method based on on-machine measure for measuring the spherical center point is proposed, and the solution formula of each geometric error term of the rotating axis is established, respectively. This method can identify 12 geometric errors based on the influence of one rotating axis on another rotating axis after long term operation. The spatial error field of the five-axis machine tool was constructed by analyzing the error law of the two rotating axes of machine tools based on various positions and postures. Finally, after the comparison of the experiment, the results showed that the accuracy of the developed error measurement device reached 91.8% and the detection time was as short as 30–40 min.

The precision model of the 5-axis CNC machine tool can be built up based on the theory of kinematics for multi-body system (MBS). And then based on the precision model, the sensitivity analysis established with matrix differential is a method of identifying geometric error parameters for machine tool. And the geometric error factors of major parts that have relatively significant influence on comprehensive spatial error of the machine tool are identified. Finally, important theoretical basis for improving the titanium alloy Five-axis CNC machining center reasonably and for the error compensation can be provided.

Abstract: In order to determine that the effect of geometric error to the machining accuracy is an important premise for the error compensation, a sensitivity analysis method of geometric error is presented based on multi-body system theory in this paper. An accuracy model of five-axis machine tool is established based on multi-body system theory, and with 37 geometric errors obtained through experimental verification, key error sources affecting the machining accuracy are finally identified by sensitivity analysis. The analysis result shows that the presented method can identify the important geometric errors having large influence on volumetric error of machine tool and is of help to improve the accuracy of machine tool economically.
