Statistical process control (SPC) focuses mainly on process change detection...

... manufacture and assembly. Therefore this study presents a skew-ray tracing method for modeling and sensitivity analysis of laser tracking systems. First, the geometric relations of position-detector and interferometer readings are derived in terms of the laser tracker’s parameters using skew-ray tracing...

...) the input angular displacements, velocities, and accelerations of the two motors. Next, a trajectory-planning method is given. Then, the sensitivity analysis is carried out, which helps to determine the key dimensions of the press and the error compensation scheme. Finally, two experiments are shown...

...Ning Fang, Assistant Professor, Mem. ASME, This paper presents a new quantitative sensitivity analysis of cutting performances in orthogonal machining with restricted contact and flat-faced tools, based on a recently developed slip-line model. Cutting performances are comprehensively measured...

... of 6-DOF Stewart Platform based machine tools, sensitivity analysis is adopted to describe the contribution of each error component to the total position and orientation error of the mechanism. An automated error analysis system that computes and graphically depicts the error distributions throughout...
