Volumetric error compensation for large machine tools
-
- New system simultaneously corrects tool position in multiple axes to deliver machining accuracies never before possible on large machines that cut complex shapes.
- MAG introduces industry's fastest volumetric error compensation (VEC) system capable of analyzing and correcting positioning errors in all machine-tool axes simultaneously to achieve machining accuracies never before possible on large parts.
- The MAG VEC methodology reduces the time to determine needed error compensations from days to hours, and integrates both linear and rotary axes into the tool point compensation process, according to Jim Dallam, MAG's VEC product manager.
- Developed and proven by a government/industrial consortium, multi-axis VEC was conceived especially to improve machining accuracies for large machine tools needed to produce today's large, monolithic and complex-shaped parts.
- VEC is offered as a standard option on new MAG machines and is available through MAG's service group for field upgrade of legacy machines.
