     VI. Dynamic positioning accuracy To measure the dynamic tool tip positioning errors, continuously move A-axis from 0 to +/-90 degrees back and forth 5 times at B = 0.  Repeat the same at B =  30  degrees  and  60  degrees.      Continuously  move  B-axis  from  0  to  +/-90 degrees back and forth 5 times at A = 0.  Repeat the same at A = 30 degrees and  60  degrees.    For  a  complete  measurement,  repeat  the  above  with  laser head  at  positions  1,  2,  3,  and  4,  and  use  the  2D  time  base  to  collect  data continuously. VII. Measurement errors of  tool tip positioning measurement Laser system errors:  0.000010” Precision sphere:       0.000025” Machine positioning: 0.000500” Lateral coupling:       0.000070”  (assume the maximum lateral movement                                                      is less than 0.010” and 1.5” diameter sphere). The  largest  error  is  the  machine  positioning  error  0.0005”.    Hence  any improvement  in  the  machine  positioning  accuracy  will  improve  the  tool  tip positioning measurement accuracy.   VIII.   References                  [1] C.
