BS EN ISO 10360-1:2001 – Geometrical Product Specifications (GPS) — Acceptance and reverification tests for coordinate measuring machines (CMM) — Part 1: Vocabulary

1 Scope This part of ISO 10360 establishes a vocabulary for coordinate measuring machines (CMM)， and their acceptance and reverification tests.
2 General terms
2.1 coordinate measuring machine CMM measuring system with the means to move a probing system (2.6) and capability to determine spatial coordinates on a workpiece surface NOTE For a description of some common CMMs and their physical axes, see annex A.
2.2 coordinate measurement measurement of spatial coordinates carried out by a CMM (2.1)
2.3 measuring volume measuring range of a CMM (2.1)，stated as simultaneous limits on all spatial coordinates measured by the CMM 2.4 workpiece coordinate system coordinate system fixed with respect to a workpiece
2.5 machine coordinate system coordinate system fixed with respect to physical or calculated axes of a CMM (2.1) NOTE For a description of some common CMMs and their physical axes, see annex A.
2.6 probing system system consisting of a probe (3.1) and, where present, probe extensions, probe changing system, stylus (4.1)， stylus changing system and stylus extensions See Figures 1 and 2.
NOTE 1 A probing system is connected to a ram (2.23).
NOTE 2 A probing system is not limited to contacting probing systems (3.2).
2.7 probing (to probe), verb action which results in the determination of coordinate values
2.8 discrete-point probing particular probing (2.7) mode where the recording of an indicated measured point (2.12) is assessed directly after an intermediate point (2.11) has been left
2.9. scanning particular probing (2.7) mode for taking consecutive measured points in order to characterize lines on an inspected surface
2.10. program point any point expressed by coordinates and used for controlling the movement of a specified point of a probing system (2.6)
2.11 intermediate point special program point (2. 10) where no probing (2.7) is made
NOTE Intermediate points are normally used for controling the movement of a probing system (2.6), altering its speed or direction of movement， and for clearance movement.
