    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Applies to machine tools and related accessories. Covers direct measurement on the machine, and to linear and rotary positioning errors for numerically controlled tools only. Also applies to angular (including pitch, roll and yaw) and straightness errors for both numerically controlled and manually controlled tools.
