Present work deals with the accuracy of manufacturing machines and the possibility of regular diagnostic of machining centers in order to improve the quality and productivity of machining process of a CNC MCV-400 machine usingLaser calibration and Ballbar tests with the help of Renishaw equipment.The accuracy of machine tools is a critical factor that affects the quality of manufactured products which is one of the most important considerations for any manufacturer. The consistent performance of the machine tool is constrained by the errors built in the machine or occurring on a periodic basis on the account of change in temperature and cutting forces. Condition monitoring techniques have been utilized to identify, predict and compensate these errors and to improve machine tool accuracy.
