The instrument consists of two pairs of QDs (quadrant detectors) and triangulation laser probes, one magnetic base and one glass ball. The kinematic and geometric error models of a five-axis machine with a titling rotary table are obtained using the HTM (homogeneous transformation matrix). The error model totally includes 43 geometric errors. The proposed method first analyzes the sensitivity Jacobian matrix and observes what are the critical offsets of five-axis machine which dominant the overall volumetric errors. Three types of error sources consists of the center bias, circle and eccentric are identified. NC test paths such as BK2 are planned according to the inverse kinematic equations. Simulations are performed to generalize the polar plots of error patterns. Finally, the proposed method is applied to compensate the geometric errors of the five-axis machine tool, and the machine accuracy can be significantly improved. ? 2011 IEEE.Center biasError modelError patternsError sourcesFive-axisFive-axis CNC machinesFive-axis machinesGeometric errorsGeometry errorGlass ballsHomogeneous transformation matrixKinematic equationsMachine accuracyOptical measurement instrumentPolar plotQuadrant detectorsRotary tablesTriangulation lasersVolumetric errorsComputer control systemsGeometryGlass lasersInstrument errorsIntelligent mechatronicsInverse kinematicsJacobian matricesLinear transformationsMachine toolsMathematical transformationsMeasurement errorsOptical data processingError compensationconference paper10.1109/AIM.2011.60271362-s2.0-80054002031
