Abstract

An arm type coordinate measuring machine includes a rotating table on which a workpiece is mounted, a probe for measuring three-dimensional coordinates of the workpiece mounted on the rotating table, a support arm that is rotatable while supporting the probe, an arm driving portion configured to rotate the support arm around a first axis, a table driving portion configured to rotate the rotating table around a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, and a control portion configured to drive the arm driving portion and the table driving portion to move the probe with respect to the workpiece such that the three-dimensional coordinates of the workpiece are measured by the probe.

Dependent claims

An arm type coordinate measuring machine comprising:

a mounting table on which a measured subject is mounted;
a probe for measuring three-dimensional coordinates of the measured subject mounted on the mounting table;
a supporter being rotatable while supporting the probe;
a first driving portion configured to rotate the mounting table or the supporter around a first axis;
a second driving portion configured to rotate the mounting table or the supporter around a second axis perpendicular to the first axis;
and
a control portion configured to drive the first driving portion and the second driving portion to move the probe with respect to the measured subject such that the three-dimensional coordinates of the measured subject are measured by the probe.
