The conference call is today at 10:30 Eastern (see below for other
times). We have some additional information to consider from Michael
Mariani of IQL:<br>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family:
"Calibri","sans-serif";">"As
promised I’ve attached a link to a white paper addressing
nomenclature
for defining both kinematic sub-classes for machine tools and
individual
parametric error names. There are schemes defined within the
current
machine tool standards, however from our field experience we
have found them
not to be practical when applied, thus the reason for our
proposed approach.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family:
"Calibri","sans-serif";">I
have also set-up a trial user account for the Step Manufacturing
group to
explore our web based CAE tool … <a
href="http://www.LocusCAE.com">www.LocusCAE.com</a>
It is a tool that predicts machining outcomes for specific
machining
operations. The tool provides tolerance consumption estimates
as well as
diagnostic information for machine tool parametric errors
associated with the
machining operation. (Username: STEP_NC, Password: locuscae)"</span></p>

The next conference call is this Friday May 6. See below for
connection details. The proposed agenda is as follows.<br>
<br>
1. Review minutes of last conference call for accuracy (pun intended
and a nice change from all those next step puns).<br>
<br>
2. Review EXPRESS-G model of B5.59-2<br>
<br>

<br>
We have a copy of B5.59-2 in our archive from the March 2007 Funchal
meeting. Look in the machine_tool_model folder of the zip.<br>

3. Demonstration of using ISO 13399 cutting tool data to set tool
lengths for ISO 10303-238 machining data<br>
