dc.description.abstractThis project's objective focuses on machine design to primarily improve accuracy and repeatability in on-site circular machining. On-site circular machining is used in the finishing and repairing of flanges most commonly used for mating with slewing bearings. The expected outcomes of the manufacturing processes are always increasing, therefore requiring higher levels of accuracy. The milling must be performed under a wide range of environmental conditions. The environmental conditions may prohibit the use of high accuracy measurement systems. The factors that effect the achievable accuracy and repeatability of the circular milling process are assessed in this project. From these findings new systems are designed in order to achieve higher degrees of performance in the circular milling process over a larger range of operating conditions.en_ZA
