WHAT’S
COVERED
|
OBJECTIVES:
- Review the concepts of the Y14.5M standard
- Expand the participants’ knowledge of the concepts and the
language of the Y14.5M standard as it pertains to CMM’s
- Gain confidence in using the Y14.5M standard's concepts with
the CMM
- Recognize CMM software, hardware, and measurement philosophy
strengths and weaknesses
- Develop "work-arounds" to overcome CMM weaknesses
PROGRAM OUTLINE:
The program begins with a review of GD&T. We then continue with
practical evaluation of CMM measurement philosophy and
capabilities, as well as its pitfalls. The subject matter
covered is (as a minimum):
- Introduction -- Objectives, review GD&T
- CMM operation -- concepts, philosophy, practice, and
misconceptions
- CMM software -- what is being calculated per the ASME/ANSI
Y14.5M standard and what is not
- Effects of Datum features of size
- "Work-arounds" for the shortcomings
- Review of actual prints (participant and instructor
supplied) including actually measuring on the CMM
