Metrology Parts Releases "What is a Coordinate Measuring Machine?"


This guide offers insight into coordinate measuring machines including how they are used, what they measure, and the components of one.

BAXTER, Minn., May 8, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Metrology Parts has announced the release of its latest resource "What is a Coordinate Measuring Machine?". This resource provides information on coordinate measuring machines (CMM) including the different types, types of measurements, the parts involved, and how to use a CMM.

Coordinate measuring machines are used to calculate the dimensions and geometries of physical objects.

According to Metrology Parts, "Coordinate measuring machines are used to calculate the dimensions and geometries of physical objects." Bridge CMMs are the most popular type, but other types include gantry CMMs, cantilever CMMs, horizontal arm CMMs, and optical CMMs. Measurements taken by CMMs help to ensure dimensions are correct and accurate, and the most common types of measurements are dimensional, profile, angularity, depth mapping, digitized imaging, and shaft.

Before using a coordinate measuring machine, users should do a thorough check to ensure everything is set up correctly and working properly. CMMs are comprised of several distinct sections including the structure, probe, controller, and software. The structure consists of the CMM's layout and make, and the probe is the section that uses sensors to take measurements of the object. From a technical standpoint, the controller regulates the CMM's results, and the software collects, analyzes, and displays the data and detects any deviations in the data.
