Abstract
Performance of coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) is adversely effec ted by structural vibrations. The effect of input shaping, a method of reducing residual vibration, on the quality of CMM measurements has b een investigated. Measurements of a CMM show a reduction of structural deflection when input shaping is used. Additional tests indicate that input shaping improves measurement repeatability over a large range o f operating parameters.
