In this paper, simultaneous five-axis control motions were newly proposed to identify the ten inherent deviations to double pivot head type five-axis machines. This motion was designed for the application of a ball bar to the measurements. The ball bar can be applied to the motion by changing the ball bar's sensitive direction in the axial, radial and tangential directions in relation to the A-axis rotation. All the three ball bar settings can be changed in a single arrangement, with a magnetic clamp fixed onto the main spindle. This leads to reduce the setting errors and setting time as well. The ten deviations are identified by using three measurements, two of which are taken in the axial direction motion while the third is extracted using the tangential or radial direction motion. From the axial direction motion, seven deviations are estimated; four of these estimations are made using the observation equation while the other three are made using simple geometric relations. The remaining three of the ten deviations are determined by using tangential or radial motion. The validity of the proposed method is confirmed by simulations.
