The coordinate system, invented by the famous French philosopher and mathematician René Descartes in the early 1600's, lets us locate features relative to other features on workpieces....
A brief overview of how ISO standards apply to CMMs
The Right CMM Makes All the Difference In Measuring Operations. Process control and quality assurance in modern manufacturing operations depend increasingly on the performance of coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). Over the past 20 years, CMMs have replaced traditional methods of inspection with gages and fixtures and have reduced the time and manpower required in quality control operations.
