Abstract
The CNC machine tools are present at a large extent worldwide, for machining by cutting all kinds of work pieces. Their machining accuracy and quality are crucial to obtaining very accurate and intricate work pieces. The accuracy of a CNC machine tool is given by the quality of each and every kinematic linkage/coupling in its structure. This work aims at researching the influence of several constructive and functional factors on the positioning accuracy of a kinematic coupling in the structure of a CNC machine tool. The influence caused by noncompliance with the Abbé principle on the positioning accuracy of a feed kinematical linkage is analysed into detail, both at idle and load running. Out of this research useful conclusions are resulting for the CNC machine tool designers and builders, with respect to optimising several constructive factors, such as the location of the position encoder, location of the ball screw, stiffness of the directional guideways etc., in order to improve the accuracy of the CNC machine tool. The results of the theoretical research have been validated through experimental trials, confirming the impossibility of full compliance with the Abbé on the CNC machine tools.
