Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts testing technology, specifically a device for adjusting a probe using a coordinate measuring machine. Background Technology

[0002] Steering knuckles are aluminum alloy automotive parts that require inspection using a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) during production. Due to the complex shape of the steering knuckle, the inspection of some holes requires the probe angle to be parallel to the axis of the hole being measured. Because of workpiece machining and clamping errors, adjusting the probe angle according to the theoretical digital model is not feasible; the probe must be moved to the corresponding hole position on the CMM. Adjusting the probe is time-consuming and disrupts the CMM's cycle time. Therefore, a device is needed to replace the CMM for adjusting the probe. Utility Model Content
