  • Aligning components in relation to a coordinate measuring machine
    Patent number: 11274913
    Abstract: A stylus is arranged on a coordinate measuring machine. A method for aligning a component in relation to the coordinate measuring machine includes positioning the stylus and the component in relation to one another according to a defined arrangement. The method includes acquiring at least one coordinate of the component. The method includes changing at least one of a position and an orientation of the component in relation to the coordinate measuring machine while maintaining the defined arrangement.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 10, 2020
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2022
    Assignee: Carl Zeiss Industrielle Messtechnik GmbH
    Inventors: Jochen Mühlbacher, Kurt Brenner, Dominic Bulling
