July 2013 6.4 Axis-error compensation 655
Example The following dependencies apply for axes 2 = Y and 3 = Z:
Ball screw pitch error in Z and Y: Z = F(Z) and Y = F(Y)
Axis sag in Z depending on Y
Range of traverse: Z = 800 mm, Y = 500 mm
Datum for compensation values: Z = –200 mm, Y = –90 mm
Desired spacing of compensation points: 7 mm
Number of compensation points:
Axis Y:
Ball screw-pitch
error in
column2=F(),
Sag error in
column3=F()
Axis Z:
Ball screw pitch
error in
