INORAsrs Utilized in the Smart Machine Platform Initiative
March 13, 2008
As part of the Smart Machine Platform Initiative, the INORAsrs is used to rapidly and accurately assess machine tool positioning, angularity and volumetric errors to provide accurate feedback about a machine's capability at any point within the manufacturing process. The SMPI is a government-funded collaboration of commercial firms, government agencies and a variety of machine tool and equipment vendors whose intent is to rapidly accelerate the evolution of machine tool intelligence. Working under the "First Part Correct" philosophy, the ultimate goal is a smart machine which can make appropriate decisions about the manufacturing process in real time.
