Abstract

A system to control a workpiece during its manufacturing in a machining system. The control being performed in the same manufacturing phase following machining operation. The workpiece being set in the work volume of the machining system. The check operation includes the acquisition of points on the surface of the part. The robot is moved by a cart so the robot can reach the protected working area. The measuring device is positioned relative to the workpiece by the robot.
