Abstract

Due to high accuracy and precision, coordinate measuring machine (CMM) has been an important tool of inspection in quality control for several years. Effectiveness of inspection greatly depends on measurement cycle time. Lesser the inspection time taken by CMM to measure a given part better will be the performance of inspection process. Therefore, for efficient performance of inspection process, it is critical to reduce measurement time. Goal of our research is to improve measurement accuracy and reduce the cycle time of inspection. There are various methods to generate most suitable measurement path which will result in minimum inspection time. These methods are based on different algorithms to reduce measurement cycle time for CMM. Genetic algorithm, which is one of the optimization techniques can be used to find the minimum cycle path and hence can be used to increase the speed of inspection.
