This paper presents a new solution for the error mapping, which calibrates the rotary table, the 3-axis measuring device and the artifact (circular ball plate) simultaneously. Multi-measuring and approximation techniques are introduced to identify and quantify the error motions based on obtained point clouds. A mathematical model covers all the deviation sources, occurring at the movement of a rotary axis. Simulations and experimental results verify and validate the solution. The simple and flexible calibration setup together with the developed evaluation procedure enable a compensation of rotary table/axis deviations in a wide application field.enCC BY-NC-ND 4.0 (Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Coordinate measuring machine (CMM)compensationRotary table600Error mapping of rotary tables in 4-axis measuring devices using a ball plate artifactArtikel/Aufsatzurn:nbn:de:gbv:46-elib82800
