Method and system for manufacturing a part

A system for manufacturing a part, the system comprising:

• a receiving area receiving said part, a first reference gauge and a second reference gauge and subjected to common environmental conditions, said first reference gauge having a first nominal dimension and said second reference gauge having a second nominal dimension different from said first nominal dimension;
• a measurement device operable to measure dimensions of said first and second reference gauges, and of said part;
• and
• a controller communicatively coupled to said measurement device, said controller having a processor and a non-transitory memory communicatively coupled to said processor and having stored thereon instructions that when executed by said processor while said part is received in said receiving area cause said controller and said measurement device to interoperate to:
• determine, by said measurement device, said dimensions of said first and second reference gauges, and of said part;
• determine, by said controller based on said dimensions of said first and second reference gauges, and of said first and second nominal dimensions, a calibration curve by performing a mathematical fit based on said first and second nominal dimensions and said measured dimensions of said first and second reference gauges;
• and
• construct, by said controller in said non-transitory memory, a machine-readable dataset representative of said part, including modifying, by said controller, said measured dimensions of said part based on said calibration curve.
