Presidential Young Investigator Award: Machine Tool Accuracy and Precision

研究活动将集中在三个领域， 开发强大、大规模、灵活的自动化系统。 它们是：设备响应保真度、设备水平 系统控制中的可编程性和数据可重用性。 到 实现这一目的的建模和表征准静态 计算机数控机床的体积误差将 贯彻 数据可配置也在考虑之中 柔性自动化制造的分布式控制 设施和工艺规划的发展， 平台

The research activity will be focussed on three areas in the development of robust, large-scale, flexible automation systems. They are: Fidelity of Device Response, Level of Device Programmability and Data-Configurability in System Control. To achieve this end modeling and characterization of quasistatic volumetric errors in Computer Numeric Control machines will be carried out. Also under consideration are data-configurable distributed control of flexible automated manufacturing facilities and the development of a process planning enabling platform.
