Method to quickly check the kinematics of a five-axis milling machine with 3D measuring probe
Summary

3D measuring probes prove to be extremely suitable for a quick check of the kinematics of a five-axis milling machine. The principle is based on measuring an object, by means of an accurate measuring probe, according to pre-programmed measuring cycles. The measurement results are presented graphically and allow the machine accuracy to be monitored over time.

Kinematic errors in machine tools can roughly be identified in two ways: directly and indirectly. An overview with different measurement principles has been published before.
