2. Main components of a coordinate CMM
The function of the structure of a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is to position a probing system relative to an object to be measured, and to locate the position of this probing system in a frame of reference associated with the CMM.
probing system is defined here in relation to ISO 6360-1 March 2001.
Five main components can be distinguished. Two physical components :
a contact or optical probing system;
a system for moving and determining the spatial coordinates of a probing system with or without thermal compensation.
Three software components :
a compensation matrix for CMM geometric defects;
