    Abstract

    An essential part of assessing whether a measurement or gauging system meets its intended purpose is to estimate the measurement uncertainties. This paper employs the design of experiments (DOE) approach to implement a practical analysis of measurement uncertainty of Renishaw Equator automated flexible gauge. The factors of interest are measurement strategy, part location, and environmental effects. The experimental results show the ability of the versatile gauge to effectively meet its measurement capability in both discrete-point probing and scanning measuring modes within its whole measuring volume and, in particular, at high scanning speeds and under workshop conditions.
