VDI/VDE 2617 Blatt 2.1:2014-03

The standard describes procedures of acceptance and reverification testing for coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) according to DIN EN ISO 10360-2 and provides supplementary information. It applies to touch probe CMMs used for measuring linear dimensions. In addition to acceptance and reverification tests, the standard addresses some specifics of testing large CMMs, which have so far only appeared in the standard VDI/VDE 2617 Part 2.3. These are now summarized in this standard. The essential alterations in the latest version of DIN EN ISO 10360-2 are described. Furthermore, the standard provides details for the testing of the length measurement error. Knowledge of DIN EN ISO 10360-2 is assumed.
