Abstract

This paper introduces the design, manufacturing and tests of a new CNC desktop milling machine dedicated to micro and meso-scale components. The paper discusses two types of micro-machine structure i.e. egg shape bridge and cantilever egg shape column. Both structures have been designed using an enhanced deterministic design method combining FEM and Taguchi methods. This has led to achieve tight geometric and kinematic errors and secured high machining accuracy observed in a couple of samples milled on the micro-machine.
