description This paper systematically summarized the technical state of art and research results on the motion error of a linear guideway, corrected some misconceptions, and further clarified the relationship between the straightness error of the guide rail itself and the motion error of the linear stage. Moreover, a new method based on parallel mechanism is provided to study the motion errors of the linear guide pair. The basic idea is to abstract the structural relationship between the stage and the guide rail into a 4-bar parallel mechanism. Thus, the stage can be considered as a moving platform in the parallel mechanism. Its motion error analysis is also transferred to moving platform position analysis in the parallel mechanism. The straightness motion error and angular motion error of the stage can be analyzed simultaneously by using the theory of parallel mechanism. Some experiments were conducted on the linear guideway of a self-developed parallel coordinate measuring machine. The experimental data and analysis verify the feasibility and correctness of this method.
