List of references
Specifies geometrical and practical tests for machining centres and computer numerically controlled (CNC) milling machines of vertical and horizontal spindle types, with a working envelope of up to 3000 mm. Applies to machines a minimum of four numerically controlled axes, one rotary axis (spindle) and three linear (X, Y and Z) and gives the permissible deviations that apply. Includes definitions, tables and diagrams.
