Conclusively, the experiment and simulation verification results clearly delineate that the maximal relative differences in the linear errors and the angular errors of the 6-DOF geometric errors are, at most, 3.25% and 2.30%, respectively. Moreover, the experimental verifications are implemented to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed measurement method.
In addition, the homogeneous transformation matrix (HTM), multilateration method, and least squares method are used for building the mathematical measurement algorithm. For each rotary table geometric error measurement, the positions of the LaserTRACER as well as the relative distance between the reflectors and the LaserTRACER are measured and obtained for determining the 6-DOF geometric errors of the rotary tables. Furthermore, the set-up errors of the reflector standard fixture are also considered and identified to reduce the influence of the 6-DOF geometric error measurements. Therefore, this paper mainly aims to develop a measurement method for identifying the 6-DOF geometric errors of rotary tables without using the external linear axis.
For the machining accuracy, the six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) geometric errors of the rotary axes interactively influence the manufacturing quality of the precise workpieces. In this paper, a novel and robust measurement method is proposed for obtaining the geometric errors of rotary tables by using LaserTRACER and the reflectors mounted on the reflector standard fixture.
