About the Book

This collection of papers from the Fourth International Conference on Laser Metrology and Machine Performance reflects the growing emphasis on engineering performance of surfaces. There is also coverage of research efforts involving thermal errors on machine tools. Developments in ISO standards also continue to be highlighted. The papers come from acknowledged experts working in industry, research establishments and academia in many countries, and cover the following topical areas: calibration systems; condition monitoring; machine tool standards; thermal errors of machine tools; hexapod calibration; gear measurement; surface measurements; machine tool errors; machine tool measurement systems and machine tool performance.

Table of Contents:
Section 1 - Calibration Systems: Methods for calibration and testing of flexible arm measuring devices; Experimental design in determining the parametric errors of CMMs; Characterisation of 3-d Cartesian co-ordinate laser interferometer tracking system; Practical calibration of tracking laser systems. Section 2 - Condition Monitoring: Maintenance planning for condition monitoring in a high-speed machining shop; Monitoring single point diamond turning through acoustic emission; Condition monitoring of ball bearings by vibration signature with joint time-frequency analysis. Section 3 - Machine Tool Standards: An update on BSI and ISO machine tool accuracy standards; Development of CNC machine performance standards. Section 4 - Thermal Errors of Machine Tools: An identification and study of mechanisms causing thermal errors in CNC machine tools; Accuracy improvement for three axis CNC machining centres by geometric, load and thermal error compensation; Innovative thermal error correction of a vertical machining centre spindle head; Machines for high explosive component manufacture - how to specify; An experimental and mathematical formulation for machine tool thermal error. Keynote Speech - High speed and high productive drilling by intelligent machine tools. Section 5 - Hexapod Calibration: Measuring the geometric errors of a hexapod machine tool; Accuracy of Stewart platform-based machine tools' Section 6 - Gear Measurement: Dynamics of lightly loaded machine tool gear drives; International gear metrology round robin; Isolating and quantifying tooth deformation in worm gear systems operating under a torque load; A novel approach to the inspection of gears with a co ordinate measuring machine - theoretical aspects; CNC gear inspection technology and new software solutions adapted to individual industry needs. Section 7 - Surface Measurement: Developments in 3D surface metrology; Surface measurement fidelity; Surface reconstruction from discrete data obtained by a 3D surface measurement system; The variability of three-dimensional amplitude roughness parameters for electron-beam and electro-discharged textured surfaces; Review of optical techniques for three-dimensional surface measurement; 3-D measurement and visual characterisation of cylinder liner bore polishing. Section 8 - Machine Tool Errors: Machine tool error identification and compensation advice system; A new approach to the modelling and simulation of a CNC machine tool axis drive; An investigation into the relative accuracy of ball-screws and linear encoders over a broad range of application configurations and usage conditions; A deeper investigation into the thermal drift of a linear axis; Position measurement in CNC machines: rotary encoder versus linear transducer, how to cope with the thermal problem; A practical system for 5-axis volumetric compensation; Correlation of machine tool and CMM accuracy and precision; A novel use of artefacts in non-Cartesian machine calibration; Methods for performance evaluation of motion control systems. Section 9 - Machine Tool Measurement Systems: An advanced 6-degree-of-freedom laser system for quick CNC machine and CMM error mapping and compensation; Multi degree of freedom measurement of machine tool movements; UNITEST - A new device for the static and dynamic testing of unconventional machine structures. Section 10 - Machine Tool Performance: High-speed machining (HSM) using circular interpolation of free-cutting steels; The importance of being repeatable; Calibration and rationalisation of a manufacturing facility; An indirect method to verify and enhance machine tool accuracy.
