Computer-Aided Inspection Approach Using 3D Digitizer

An inspection is, most generally, an organized examination or formal evaluation
exercise. It involves the measurements, tests, and gauges applied to certain
characteristics in regard to an object or activity. This project related to inspection
using 3D scanning device, digitizer. Renishaw Cyclone 3D laser digitizer was used
to perform a computer-aided inspection on test piece with dome shaped contour with
50mm diameter. Results obtained indicate that the dimensions captured by digitizer
deviate range by 0.02 to 0.03mm with an average of 0.026mm. In order to establish
more definitive result, further research need to be done to cover various dimensions
so as statistical analysis could be done to establish the deviation. Recommendation
was given for further improvement.
