Comparison of Direct and Indirect Methods for Five-axis Machine Tools Geometric Error Measurement

Indirect Measurement of Volumetric Accuracy for Three-Axis and Five-Axis Machine Tools: A Review

Measurement of Error motions on Five-axis Machine Tools by Ball Bar Tests

The inclusion of the application of the double ball bar (DBB) measurement to the accuracy calibration of five-axis machine tools into the revision of ISO standards is currently under the discussion. This paper presents the modified DBB measurement device, referred to as “DBB5” in our study, where master balls are supported from the 45 ° direction to the spindle axis. It can perform all the circ...

Evaluation of servo, geometric and dynamic error sources on five axis high-speed machine tool

Many sources of errors exist in the manufacturing process of complex shapes. Some approximations occur at each step from the design geometry to the machined part. The aim of the paper is to present a method to evaluate the effect of high speed and high dynamic load on volumetric errors at the tool center point. The interpolator output signals and the machine encoder signals are recorded and com...

Comparison of Two Methods of Direct and Indirect Education on Osteoporosis Preventive Behaviors among Female Students

Background Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic bone disease that decreases bone mass, causes destruction and eventually friability. This disease is preventable, and because adolescent females are the high-risk population, teaching this age group is of the utmost importance. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of the two educational methods (Lecture and Pamphlet) on osteoporos...

Ruled Surface Machining on Five-Axis CNC Machine Tools

To achieve high precision and high productivity in machining sculptured surfaces, a new architecture for a five-axis CNC interpolator for machining ruled surfaces was developed and demonstrated on a milling machine. The objective of the five-axis interpolator is to continuously maintain the milling cutter axis in parallel with the straight lines of the ruled surface. The cutter position and ori...
