  The paper is devoted to the compliance errors compensation for parallel
manipulators under external loading. Proposed approach is based on the
non-linear stiffness modeling and reduces to a proper adjusting of a target
trajectory. In contrast to previous works, in addition to compliance errors
caused by machining forces, the problem of assembling errors caused by
inaccuracy in the kinematic chains is considered. The advantages and practical
significance of the proposed approach are illustrated by examples that deal
with groove milling with Orthoglide manipulator.
