| Abstract: |
This paper describes an activity model for dimensional inspection planning that bridges the gap between product design and the dimensional measurement of manufactured products. Functionally, this model specifies requirements for developing a part of a product data exchange standards that enables design, inspection resource, and measurement date to be exchanged among computer aided design systems, computer aided process planning systems, and coordinate measuring systems. A set of diagrams has been generated to represent the activity and its sub-activities, inputs, outputs, controls, and mechanisms, when such inspection planning is based on technologies of product data exchange, process planning, and information modeling. |
