X-ray computed tomography (XCT) is increasingly being used for evaluating quality and
conformance of complex products, including assemblies and additively manufactured parts …

This paper presents physical and metrological characterization measurements conducted
for an industrial x-ray micro-computed tomography (CT) system. As is well known in CT …

In this context of a worldwide market opening, the economy defies firms with numerous
challenges, is no longer enough to produce, the current principles are based on quality as a …

Advances in modern manufacturing techniques implies more efficient production but also
new tasks for coordinate metrology. The main of them is evaluation of accuracy of the …

The knowledge of measurement uncertainty is of great importance in conformance testing in
production. The tolerance limit for production must be reduced by the amounts of …

The scope of this work is to present a reverse engineering (RE) methodology for freeform
surfaces, based on a case study of a turbine blade made of Inconel, including the …

Measuring instruments are intended to be intelligent, precise, multi-functional and
developing multidirectionally, scientific, and reasonable; the reliable evaluation of …

Exchanging broken or worn out turbine blades is an expensive and time critical task that can
be cheapened by providing the required spare parts with minimal lead time to shorten …

An increasing level of research is focalising around the Coordinate Measurement Machine
(CMM) as an important dimensional inspection instrumentation, that is utilised in a wide …

The Coordinate Measuring Arms (CMAs) are modern, mobile measuring systems using
rotary joints in their kinematic. Their chief characteristic is redundancy. Therefore, it is …
