Machining Centres have been major production units for many decades with desired levels of accuracy, economy in costs of production and ease of control. Though new disruptive technologies such as rapid manufacturing, near net shape manufacturing technologies are replacing these machining units, still small and medium Indian Industries go with the conventional ways of large-scale production using conventional and classical machining approaches. With huge setups in place, such machines with high productivity demands, require stringent parts alignment tests frequently from time to time, referred to as Geometrical or Alignment tests to enable accurate finishing and machining of parts and smooth and uninterrupted production. This paper puts forth some basic Geometrical Tests performed on SB CNC 60 Lathe Machine Tool unit, identifying major deviations measurements and reconditioning the machine parts. The main objective of running such tests is to prevent breakdown of the machine and ensure safety working when handling older and heavier conventional machines.
