Training in the USA

Training options

The USA is the oldest and largest market for Renishaw calibration equipment. As such, regular group calibration training has been a feature for many years. A one day introductory ballbar course has been added in response to customer demand.

Having invested in the hardware, procedures and staff to operate them, these training courses are designed to ensure you get the maximum value from that investment. Renishaw is pleased to offer the following training options for North American customers.

Ballbar classes (QC20)

Ballbar testing and machine metrology (four day course)

Class covers the basics of machine metrology and ballbar testing. Each class covers a series of general topics (see below) ensuring that the student has a good understanding of the fundamentals of machine tool performance measurement and testing. Primarily classroom based, students will also have the opportunity to get some hands on experience putting what they have learned into practice. The comprehensive class is held at the Renishaw Inc. facility near to Chicago, IL.

General ballbar metrology class topics:

  • Introduction
  • Types of error
  • History of units
  • Improving metrology with unit selection
  • PPM formula for success
  • Axis nomenclature
  • Machine tool coordinate systems
  • 6/13/21 degrees of freedom
  • Measuring error with other instruments
  • Temperature and displacement
  • Ballbar hardware
  • How CNC machines perform circular tool paths
  • Interpreting radial deviation
  • Using analysis software
  • Trending error
  • Using capture software
  • Setting up the telescoping ballbar test
  • Running your first test
  • Volumetric measurement with the ballbar
  • Evaluating measured results
  • Making changes in the machine control

We strongly recommend that ballbar users planning to take the ballbar class obtain and view a copy of the 'Getting Started with Ballbar' DVD presentation before attending. The DVD is available, free of charge, from Renishaw by calling (847) 286-9953, by sending an e-mail request to usa@renishaw.com or can be viewed on our training videos page.
