Abstract
A process of determining a location of a core cavity in a cast part including determining a nominal location of the cavity within the part; determining a nominal location of at least one locator hole in at least one external surface of the part; determining an actual location of the at least one locator hole in the at least one external surface of the part; comparing the nominal location of the at least one locator hole in the at least one external surface of the part to the actual location of the at least one locator hole in the at least one external surface of the part; and determining an actual location of the core cavity within the part.
