The accuracy of a machine tool is depending on the estimation and compensation of deviation from the ideal kinematic. For machine tool builders the offsets of the rotary axes of five-axis machines can be difficult to measure, especially if it is a Cardan kinematic or if due to the positioning limits it is impossible to measure position at which the calculation is easy. Thus there is a requirement of software based measuring and compensation. Here a survey of approaches for measuring and compensation of five-axis machine tools and the achievable results is made.
