2017
Writing in the February 2017 issue of the Journal of Manufacturing Science and Engineering, the Missouri S&T researchers describe an approach that can greatly improve the accuracy of five-axis machine tools used to fabricate large parts
"Five-axis machine tools are known to have 41 basic geometric errors.
The research is related to compensating for the errors to hold errors to five thousandths of an inch over 120 feet in case of aircraft body etc.
