CMMs allow the measure of points in space and the calculation of the relative cartesin coordinates X,Y,Z using an appropriate mathematical model. In the automotive sector, for example, using a specialized CMM and software, it is possible to make complex measurements on the chassis, shock absorbers and many other parts of the vehicle, comparing then the measured values with the nominal positions provided by the vehicle's constructor.
Le macchine di misura a coordinate (CMM) permettono la misurazione di punti nello spazio e il calcolo delle relative coordinate cartesiane tridimensionali X,Y,Z attraverso un opportuno modello matematico.
