The use of this method is for optical surface metrology and coordinate-measuring machine.

A 3D coordinate-measuring machine automatically checks the critical dimensions of the airend casing.

Coordinate-measuring machines include three main components:

The Voronoi approach is also put to good use in the evaluation of circularity/roundness while assessing the dataset from a coordinate-measuring machine.

While bearing some resemblance to a coordinate-measuring machine (CMM) its usage and accuracy envelope differs significantly.

Surface plates are a very common tool in the manufacturing industry and are often permanently attached to robotic type inspection devices such as a coordinate-measuring machine.

Interferometry is used in the calibration of slip gauges (called gauge blocks in the US) and in coordinate-measuring machines.

The RB-1 was the forerunner of modern machine vision-based Coordinate-measuring machines (CMMs).

Gear geometry can be inspected and verified using various methods such as industrial CT scanning, coordinate-measuring machines, white light scanner or laser scanning.

Raster images can be created by a variety of input devices and techniques, such as digital cameras, scanners, coordinate-measuring machines, seismographic profiling, airborne radar, and more.

The PMI also may be used by tolerance analysis and Coordinate-measuring machine (CMM) software applications if the modeling application permits.

Measurement application include coordinate-measuring machines (CMM), laser scanners, calipers, gear measurement, tension testers, and digital read outs (DROs).

During the 1980s and 1990s Brown & Sharpe started focusing more and more on developing coordinate-measuring machines (CMMs), devices for dimensional measuring, as a more modern and larger progression to their established micrometers.

The Kineo CAM main market is PLM, DMU and CAD/CAM systems, robotics and coordinate-measuring machines (CMM).

McMurtry had needed to measure fuel pipes on a prototype jet engine: at the time, coordinate-measuring machine sensors featured rigid styli, which required manual positioning on the surface and which yielded poor repeatability when measuring delicate components.
