Abstract

Abstract : Highlights: Formal representation of knowledge in coordinate measuring inspection planning. Knowledge representation is for Computer Aided Inspection Planning processing. Our research considers practical inspection planning for application to the industry. Rules are formally expressed with detail and the programming skeleton is provided. Abstract: Different proposals have been presented along last years with the purpose of automating the process of dimensional inspection planning with coordinate measuring machines (CMM) and touch probe technology. These proposals have focused mainly on particular items such as analysis of accessibility, orientation of the part or trajectory paths among surfaces or inspection points. The main limitation of these proposals is in the use of a predefined probe configuration, although current technology allows automatic probe change for improving the inspection process. In this paper, detailed rules are explained for developing a knowledge based engineering (KBE) application. These rules make it possible to incorporate the selection of the most appropriate configuration of sensor group with the basis of precision.
