Knowledge of a machine tool axis to axis location errors allows compensation and correcting actions to be taken to enhance its volumetric accuracy. Several procedures exist, involving either lengthy individual test for each geometric error or faster single tests to identify all errors at once. This study focuses on the closed kinematic Cartesian chain method which uses a single setup test to identify the eight link errors of a five axis machine tool. The identification is based on volumetric error measurements for different poses with a non-contact measuring instrument called CapBall, developed in house. In order to evaluate the uncertainty on each identified error, a multi-output Monte Carlo approach is implemented. Uncertainty sources in the measurement and identification chain - such as sensors output, machine drift and frame transformation uncertainties - can be included in the model and propagated to the identified errors. The estimated uncertainties are finally compared to experimental results to assess the method. It shows that the effect of the drift, a disturbance, must be simulated as a function of time the Monte Carlo approach. The machine drift is found to be an important uncertainty in sources for the machine tested.
