A method for machine measurement for an NC processing machine is provided. The processing machine has a machine head, for example, a fork head and an associated mechanical and electrical spindle changing interface for holding a motor spindle. A laser interferometer with a beam generator and a beam detector is also provided and at least one measurement optic which interacts with the laser interferometer, for example, in the form of a reflector, and laser interference measurements, which are directed at a measurement optic, in particular distance measurements, carried out for machine measurement. The laser interferometer has an interface which corresponds to the spindle changing interface, and the laser interferometer is substituted for the motor spindle via the spindle changing interface for machine measurement, and is aligned by means of the machine axes for the laser interference measurements.
A method for machine measurement for an NC processing machine, wherein the processing machine includes a machine head having an associated mechanical and electrical spindle changing interface for holding a motor spindle, the method comprising:
A system for machine measurement of an NC processing machine having a machine head with an associated mechanical and electrical spindle changing interface for holding a motor spindle, with a laser interferometer having a beam generator and a beam detector, and at least one measurement optics which interacts with the laser interferometer and with laser interference measurements which are always aligned with a measurement optics and which are being carried out for machine measurement, with the laser interferometer having an interface which corresponds to the spindle changing interface, and with the laser interferometer being substituted for the motor spindle via the spindle changing interface for machine measurement, which laser interferometer can be aligned by means of the machine axes for the laser interference measurements.
