“…To solve this problem, several error separation techniques have been proposed, including Donaldson’s reversal method 9–11 and multistep 9,12–14 and multi-probe methods. 9,14–17 Donaldson’s reversal error separation method requires an additional runout dataset, which is acquired after the same probes and artifact are precisely reversed using a specially designed device.…”

Fourier model–based multi-probe-error-separation is an error separation method that is useful for precise measurement of the rotation error motion of spindles or roundness profile of rotating machine parts. However, it is not yet widely used, because it suffers from the critical problem of harmonic distortion. This study explores the phenomenon of harmonic distortion in detail and analytically clarifies the principles behind its occurrence. The position at which harmonic distortion occurs can be calculated exactly and easily using principles related not only to probe arrangement angles, but also to measurement conditions such as data length and undulation range of interest. Based on these principles, we propose multi-probe system design guidelines for the effective selection of probe arrangement angles and avoidance of harmonic distortion. The reliability and usability of the proposed design method are verified by simulation tests; stable multi-probe-error-separation can easily be achieved using the proposed design technique. We conduct experimental tests using a special measuring system based on four probes composed of two different probe arrangement sets and verify that this multi-probe-error-separation method can acquire rotation error motion or roundness profile precisely without harmonic distortion.

“…5. A rotary encoder, mounted to the spindle's bottom thrust plate, will enable spindle metrology with Donaldson reversal [14] and Estler reversal [15]. The spindle is driven through a traction drive (crowned roller pressed against the perimeter of the spindle rotor) by a stepper motor mounted on a compliant flexure.…”

“…In such a measurement, the recorded displacements result from both the spindle error motion and imperfections in the artifact geometry (as well as displacements due to thermal drift or other changes in operating condi- tions). Several techniques can separate spindle error motion from artifact form errors, including Donaldson reversal, Estler reversal, multi-step, and multi-gage methods [5][6][7][8][9].…”

This work demonstrates techniques that advance the standard practice in spindle metrology and enable five degree-of-freedom calibration of precision spindles with nanometer-level error motion. Several improvements are described in this paper: (1) an improved implementation of Donaldson and Estler reversal that eliminates moving and realigning the displacement sensor, (2) frequency domain low-pass filtering of data to remove spectral content without distortion, (3) robust removal of low frequency components caused by thermal drift and fluctuations in air bearing supply pressure, and (4) three-dimensional display of the synchronous error motion in the radial and axial directions. Example measurements demonstrate the repeatability and reproducibility of the techniques. Furthermore, synchronous radial error motion of an air bearing spindle calibrated by multi-step, master artifact, and master axis techniques agree within 1 nm.
