55281A Angular Optics Kit

Data Sheets

Angular measurements are made at multiple points along a machine’s travel path to test for rotation about an axis perpendicular to the axis of motion (pitch and yaw).

  • A common cause of machining errors, geometry errors are as critical as linear positioning errors.
  • Unwanted angular motion in a machine tool causes positioning errors that reduce the overall accuracy of your machine.

Additional Capabilities

  • Positioning errors over the work zone can be estimated from the angular and linear.
  • The condition of ways and the range of squareness and parallelism in the work zone can be indicated by angular measurements.
  • Angular measurements help find the causes of linear positioning errors and can be useful in making decisions about whether to replace or rebuild older machines.
  • Long-term drift tests can be performed over hours or days, showing possible effects of temperature on geometry.

Basic Equipment

  • Keysight 5530 Laser Calibration System
