Error Budget
A systematic analysis method in precision engineering that decomposes an overall accuracy specification layer by layer into individual error sources, assigning each an acceptable upper limit. It is used to guide the design of precision systems and the evaluation of reproducibility.
Timeline (last 90 days)
An error budget is a systematic analysis method that decomposes the total accuracy specification layer by layer into individual error sources (such as Abbe error, thermal expansion, vibration, sensor nonlinearity, actuator resolution, etc.) and assigns an acceptable upper limit to each.
A reproducible open-source precision platform must publish its error budget table; otherwise, those reproducing it cannot determine which components can be substituted and which must match strictly.
