  • System and method to derive and apply computer numerical control global offsets during part measurement on coordinate measuring machine
    Patent number: 11487269
    Abstract: A method to derive and apply computer numerical control global offsets includes: measuring features of a machined part using a coordinate measuring machine (CMM); programming a first processor within the CMM to receive the dimensions of the features and to output computer numerical control (CNC) offsets; and forwarding the CNC offsets from the CMM to a CNC machining system to correct operation of the CNC machining system.
    Type: Grant
