Disclosed is a method of determining geometric errors in a machine tool or measuring machine having a mobile unit for moving a target within a measuring volume. The method includes the steps of generating a succession of laser beams in different directions by means of an interferometer, and, for each direction, moving the target into a number of points along the beam; measuring, by means of the interferometer, the abscissa of each of the points from an origin located along the direction of the beam; acquiring the coordinates of each of the points by means of the machine; and determining error parameters of the machine on the basis of the abscissas measured by the interferometer, and the coordinates of the points acquired by the machine.

1. A method of determining geometric errors in a machine tool or measuring machine comprising a mobile unit for moving a target within a measuring volume, the method comprising the steps of: setting an interferometer measuring device in at least one fixed position in the measuring volume, the interferometer measuring device including a laser interferometer and a reflector controlled by an actuating device for deflecting a laser beam generated by said laser interferometer;setting a laser beam generated by the laser interferometer along a direction within the measuring volume by means of said deflector;moving the target into a number of discrete points along said direction by means of the mobile unit while keeping said direction fixed;measuring, by means of the interferometer, the abscissa of each of said points from an origin located along said direction;acquiring the coordinates of each of the points by means of said machine;repeating the foregoing steps for a number of directions within the measuring volume, said directions being defined by deflecting the laser beam, generated by said interferometer, by means of said reflector controlled by said actuating device, while keeping said interferometer measuring device in said fixed position; anddetermining error parameters of said machine on the basis of the abscissas measured by the measuring device and the coordinates of the points acquired by said machine. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein said origin is the barycentre of the points measured by the measuring device along said direction. 3. The method of claim 1, characterized in that said target is a back-reflector. 4. A method as claimed in claim 1, comprising at least two steps of acquiring points along two different directions; said target being mounted on said mobile unit with different offsets for the two steps. 5. The method of claim 1, including the step of setting said interferometer measuring device in a number of different fixed positions within said measuring volume and, while maintaining said interferometer measuring device in each position, setting the laser beam generated by the laser interferometer along a direction within the measuring volume by means of said deflector;moving the target into a number of discrete points along said direction by means of the mobile unit while keeping said direction fixed;measuring, by means of the interferometer, the abscissa of each of said points from an origin located along said direction;acquiring the coordinates of each of the points by means of said machine;repeating the foregoing steps for a number of directions within the measuring volume, said directions being defined by deflecting the laser beam, generated by said interferometer, by means of said reflector controlled by said actuating device, while keeping said interferometer measuring device in said fixed position; anddetermining error parameters of said machine on the basis of the abscissas measured by the measuring device and the coordinates of the points acquired by said machine for each direction of the laser beam and in each position of the interferometer measuring device. 6. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein at last a plurality of said directions of the laser beam are not aligned to the machine axes. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the step of determining error parameters comprises, for each said direction, the step of determining a line approximating the succession of points on the basis of the coordinates acquired by said machine; and imposing that said line lies along said direction. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein said step of determining error parameters comprises the step of imposing that the barycentre of the points calculated on the basis of the coordinates acquired by said machine coincides with the barycentre of the points calculated on the basis of the abscissas measured by the measuring device. 9. The method of claim 7, wherein said step of determining error parameters comprises the step of minimizing the sum of the differences between the projections of each point acquired by the machine onto said direction and the abscissas acquired by said measuring device.
