Description
In a systematic manner, this book thoroughly examines component and system design considerations for precision machines. It takes into account both theoretical analysis and practical implementation. Additionally, the book is packaged with supporting software that enables readers to explore scenarios based on the formulae presented in the book. Key features include - provides real world design case studies; explains the physics of errors in machines and estimation of error budgets examines sensor mounting methods, mapping of geometric and general errors in a machine tool, and all types of linear and rotary bearings used in machine tools.
