Feedrate accuracy/constancy Feedrate accuracy/ constancy Purpose of the test This test aims to determine the accuracy and constancy of a machine’s programmed feedrate. Achieving accurate and constant feedrates is critical when optimising metal removal rates and surface finishes. Optical set-up Set-up Renishaw’s laser measurement systems are setup using linear optics. A simple programme is entered into the CNC controller such that the machine will perform a linear movement. QuickView™ and QuickViewXL™ software are set to capture linear data. Vertical scaling of the display is adjusted to a...

Purpose of the test This test aims to determine the level of angular movement in a locked axis, such as a rotary axis. The angular stability of A and B rotary axes can affect both surface finish and geometry/profile of machined components. Optical set-up Set-up Renishaw’s laser measurement systems are set up using angular optics attached to the surface of a rotary table. No machine programming is required as the test simply aims to identify angular vibrations with the axis locked and the machine switched on. QuickView™ and QuickViewXL™ software are set to capture angular data in...

Dynamic yaw Purpose of the test This test aims to determine the dynamic yaw errors exhibited by a machine during a cycle of repeating forward and reverse linear movements. It is a good way to quickly detect yaw and lateral play (slop) in a machine’s guideways / bearings. Optical set-up Set-up Renishaw’s laser measurement systems are set up using linear optics for the initial measurement run followed by angular optics for a second measurement run. A simple programme is entered into the CNC controller such that the machine will perform a repeating linear displacement in the X or Y-axis. In...

Purpose of the test This test aims to determine the dynamic performance of a machine by examining its linear displacement characteristics during a series of very small linear displacement steps. The objective is to determine the smallest step increments in which the machine can move. A similar test is defined in ASME standard B5.54. This test can reveal stick/slip motion due to excessive friction in guideways. Optical set-up Set-up Renishaw’s laser measurement systems are set up using linear optics. A machine programme is entered into the CNC controller such that the machine will perform a...
