SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED PART INSPECTION

摘要

A system and method for automated part inspection are provided. The method comprises receiving a corrective machine tool program comprising instructions for causing a Numerical Control machine tool to machine at least one finished surface of a part, the corrective machine tool program differing from a nominal machine tool program; determining from the machine tool program a desired position and a desired orientation of an inspection tool relative to the at least one finished surface; and generating an inspection tool path program defining a movement of the inspection tool relative to the part, the inspection tool path program comprising instructions for placing the inspection probe at the desired position and the desired orientation and acquiring at least one measurement of the at least one new finished surface.
