Automated machinery, such as computer numerical control machines
(CNM), require constant monitoring for accuracy and precision.
Thus, a correct understanding of 'metrology'--the science of
measurement--is essential to the successful running and maintenance
of all automated machines, and especially CNC machines. This book
presents the main methods and means for measuring and monitoring
the accuracy of geometrical parameters for CNC and automated
machines, including modern 'Coordinate Measuring Machines' (CMMs).
Parameters such as straightness, perpendicularity, flatness, pitch,
and yaw and roll, and so on are considered, presenting different
methods and means for their determination. A particular focus is
given to the analysis of ISO written standards of accuracy control,
terms and definitions, and methods for evaluation of the results of
measurement during performance verification. This book provides
readers a useful, accessible introduction, with practical examples
and guidance covering: * The measurement systems and techniques for
monitoring of processes, systems, and equipment * Testing of
geometrical accuracy parameters and their assessment * Measurement
and monitoring of scales and encoders, including standards of
measurement for length and angle, circular scales , linear scales,
and methods and means for vertical angle calibration. * Future
trends in machine monitoring and performance verification
