Analyze Performance
One company saved over £1M by rejecting a machine that
didn’t meet specifications before it ever arrived on their
shop floor.
After you start making bad parts and can’t meet delivery
commitments is not the time to discover the spindle isn’t
performing as expected.
Synchronous Errors
Affect roundness/feature shape.
Spindle component roundness; mounting and thermal distortions
Asynchronous Errors
Affect surface finish, cause subsurface damage.
Roller bearning components, vibration
Thermal Errors
The largest source of feature location errors.
Z-axis growth, tilt, machine frame distortion
According to: ISO230-3, 230-7; ANSI B5.54, B5.57, B89.3.4
