Abstract

The paper presents research in the following fields: assessment of CMM measurements accuracy, application of standards in the form of ball and hole plates for the purpose of CMM errors identification, modelling and simulation of CMMs, developing a concept of a virtual CMM for forecasting accuracy of CMM measurements and setting its link with design and manufacturing systems. A concept of a developed system is presented which allows for interactive measurement planning, creation of a measuring program basing on CAD data and accuracy assessment using a simulation model of a CMM. 1 Introduction Continuous improvement and demand for increasing effectiveness of quality assurance systems make it necessary to apply quick and univers
