Abstract
Abstract To enhance the machine tool accuracy, the Global offset method is developed for compensating the five-axis machine tool errors based on the measurement results of one or more identical machined parts. The machined features of a part are measured in a CMM and evaluated by a compensation processor, based on which the Global offset parameters, representing the machine tool errors, are estimated. The methodology is capable of compensating the overall effect of all position-dependent and position-independent systematic errors which contribute to particular workpiece accuracy. The developed technique and software are based on the Global offset method which interprets the computed deviations between the measured and nominal dimensions of the part through the analysis, synthesis and modeling of a fixture and rotary tables errors. The proposed model-based error compensation method is simple enough to be implemented in five-axis CNC machine tools. Production results exhibit effective compensation and remarkable improvement in the workpiece accuracy of the five-axis machine tools.
