NF ISO 10791-10

Test conditions for machining centres - Part 10 : evaluation of thermal distortions

This document specifies, tests for the evaluation of thermal distortions of the machine tool structure and positioning system, for machining centres with vertical spindle, with numerically controlled linear axes of lengths up to 5 000 mm for the X-axis and up to 2 000 mm for the Y- and Z-axis. It also applies to machining centres with horizontal spindle with numerically controlled linear axes of lengths up to 5 000 mm for the X-axis, 3 200 mm for the Y-axis and 2 000 mm for the Z-axis.

This document specifies four tests:

—    environmental temperature variation error;

—    thermal distortion caused by a rotating spindle;

—    thermal distortion caused by moving linear axes;

—    thermal distortion caused by rotary motion of components.

This document is intended to be used with ISO 230-3.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!

The Redline + service - standards comparator allows you to easily and simply identify major changes between the current standard and its last canceled version.

At a glance, you will be able to identify the additions, deletions or modifications to a text, table, figure and formula.


The Redlines + service is offered to you on the collection of French standards in force, in French language and in HTML and PDF format.
