mechanical engineering, plant engineering). 2
6. Describe the fundamental approach towards error compensation and illustrate this
approach with a chosen example. 6
9. What are the consequences of over-constraints? What solutions can be found if over-
constraint cannot be avoided? 4
10. What is the cause of stick-slip? What major disadvantages arise from this effect in
precision instruments? 3
