VDI/VDE 2629 Blatt 1:2008-08

This guideline describes a method for acceptance testing of the specification of a contour-measuring system, as given by its manufacturer; the method relies on the tactile stylus method with two axes for measuring distances, radii, straightness and angles. This guideline also specifies a reverification test allowing the user to verify the conformance with the specification of the contour-measuring system at regular intervals. The acceptance and reverification tests described in this guideline are exclusively for use of tactile styli. This guideline specifies: performance specifications to be met by the contour- measuring system, imposed by either its manufacturer or its user, the performance of the acceptance and reverification tests, rules for proving conformance
