Abstract
The rapidly increasing usage of coordinate measuring machines in compu ter-integrated manufacturing environments underscores the need for a m ore science-based approach to inspection than the current ad hoc appro ach now in place. In this context we address one element of the inspec tion process, namely, the location of sample points. We present a meth od for evaluating the location of sample points using the workpiece mo del from the design. Accessibility analysis is used to determine possi ble interference between the workpiece model and probe model. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
