EXELLENT COURSEBOOK
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND
LESSONS TO LEARN:
 ISO 230-1:2014 Test code for machine tools –
Part 1: Geometric accurancy of machines operating
under no-load or quasi-static conditions is an exellent
document
 DBB measurements are important and de facto
”standard” in machine tool business
 Laser interferometer is accurare and multi-purpose
testing and measuring method
