There is a lot of BS on that webpage. Optical encoder accuracy.. Impressive to those who don't know better I guess.
This is really the only important fact regarding accuracy: >>We use Leica laser trackers to measure the volumetric Cartesian errors. These devices have accuracies of approximately 0.002 inches (51 microns) in our working envelope. Those are required to get any decent accuracy on a machine that large. That machine probably grows and shrinks a quarter of an inch or more with temperature swings.
