Abstract

The demand is increasing for the highly exact machines needed for the production of precise metallic reflectors. These machines have geometric motions which far exceed the the precision ordinarily accepted in machine tools. This paper selects one type of carriage motion as produced by one manufacturer. It then pin-points that particular "state of the art" to enable the user to specify and set a norm for expected performance.
