Abstract

Different aspects of surface measurement strategies on Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) were varied and their influence on the flatness deviation result was investigated. The CMM measurements were conducted using single point and continuous scanning probing. The measurements were performed with five different point densities in rectangular grid sampling strategies and three different probe styli. The results showed a very significant influence of a sampling size on a flatness deviation measurement result.
