Abstract

Although they are characterized by high metrological performance, due to the complexity of the measurement process on coordinate measuring machines, there are many factors that affect the quality of measurement results. The aim of this study is, by applying the Taguchi experimental design that analyzes the main influencing factors on the quality of measurement results, to optimize the measurement process on measuring machines so as to obtain the best performance in terms of accuracy and measurement uncertainty. The case study was conducted on flatness tolerance and flatness error was measured on four workpieces whose flat surface form errors differ significantly.
