Abstract
A position measurement method to measure a position of an object in a machine tool includes a tool sensor position acquisition stage, a reference block position acquisition stage, a relative position calculation stage, a reference tool position acquisition stage, a position measurement sensor measurement stage, a length compensation value calculation stage, and a position measurement stage. In the position measurement stage, the measurement position of the object is compensated using a length direction compensation value of a position measurement sensor calculated in the length compensation value calculation stage. The object is measured by the position measurement sensor installed to a main spindle.
