Basics of Coordinate Metrology
Introduction: 
Principle of Coordinate Metrology

To the units
  Unit 1: Units

   

An indispensable prerequisite of industrial production is the capability of measuring and thus also testing the properties of parts. 
    
Most products, especially in the metal-processing industry, are nowadays series products assembled from single parts.
  
Every single part, every screw, every bolt must be replaceable with a suitable spare part. This is why industrial production is not possible without metrology.
In particular coordinate metrology (owing to its three-dimensional measurement, also called 3-D coordinate metrology) is used for the precise measurement of geometric quantities (length, distance, angle, etc.) of the finished products.
   
At this self-teaching station, coordinate metrology, its Basics, its areas of application and the measurement using coordinate measuring machines are described in detail.
