ISO 1701-2:2004参考ISO 230-1，规定了具有可变高度工作台的通用、正常精度立式主轴铣床的几何和加工试验。它还规定了与上述试验相对应的适用公差。 ISO 1701-2:2004仅涉及机器精度的验证，不适用于机器运行的测试（振动、异常噪音、部件的粘滑运动等）或机器特性（如速度、进给等），通常应在测试精度之前进行。

ISO 1701-2:2004 specifies, with reference to ISO 230-1, both geometric and machining tests on general purpose, normal accuracy, vertical-spindle milling machines with table of variable height. It also specifies the applicable tolerances corresponding to the above-mentioned tests. ISO 1701-2:2004 deals only with the verification of accuracy of the machine, and it does not apply to the testing of the running of the machine (vibration, abnormal noise, stick-slip motion of components, etc.) or to machine characteristics (such as speeds, feeds, etc.), which should generally be carried out before testing the accuracy.
