Synthesis of regulators drives coordinate measuring machines, invariant to parametric perturbations

Monitoring coordinate measuring machines by calibrated parts

Coordinate measuring machines (CMM) are essential for quality assurance and production control in modern manufacturing. Due to the necessity of assuring traceability during the use of CMM, interim checks with calibrated objects carried out periodically. For this purpose usually special artefacts like standardized ball plates, hole plates, ball bars or step gages are measured. Measuring calibrat...

This paper was presented at: • SME (Society of Manufacturing Engineers), June 1993, Nashville, Tenn • International Conference on Structural Dynamics, Vibration, Noise, and control, December 1995, Hong Kong. • InterNoise ’96 (1996 International Congress on Noise Control Engineering), August 1996, Liverpool, U.K. • This paper is also printed in “Mfg.”, which is the Brown and Sharpe in-house tech...

Reconstruction of Sculptured Surface Using Coordinate Measuring Machines

This paper presents a strategy for reverse engineering that uses a coordinate measur ing machine to reconstruct three dimensional sculptured surfaces A rough initial model of the surface is generated manually An iterative method is then used to re ne the surface model until the error is within a desired bound The reverse engineering process is broken down into three phases data acquisition surf...
