Abstract
A method of machining a feature in a component using a machine having a support rotatable about a rotation axis and having a cutting tool movable relative to the component, the component being mounted on the support for rotation about a central axis of the component, the method includes: determining coordinates of at least three points on a reference surface of the component, the at least three points being circumferentially offset from one another relative to the central axis; determining an angular correction to apply to the cutting tool based on the coordinates of the at least three points; and machining the feature in the component using the cutting tool angled with the angular correction.
