A method for checking a boundary line graph using a computing device. The computing device adds a segment line between two adjacent endpoints of the boundary line graph, if the two adjacent endpoints are not connected using the segment line. The computing device removes the segment lines of the endpoints corresponding to intersection points, if the number of the intersection points is not equal to the number of the endpoints. The computing device changes label characters of the endpoints to be arranged in a predetermined order, if an order of the label characters of the endpoints is not a predetermined order according to the boundary line vector.

In a method for generating a measurement program of a product, a CAD file of the product is read and attribute data of the product is obtained from the CAD file. By creating a mesh over the attribute data of the product using a plurality of triangles, the method obtains coordinate information of measuring points of the product from the CAD file, arranges the measuring points of the product into one or more geometrical elements using a curve fitting method, and obtains measuring information of each geometrical element. By integrating the measuring information of each of the one or more geometrical elements into a predefined program model, a measurement program can be generated and displayed on a display device.

In a method for simulating a measuring process of a workpiece, one or more virtual probes of a workpiece measuring machine are created. A vector of each of the virtual probes is calculated, and an appropriate vector for each of measuring points of a workpiece is acquired for a computerized drawing of the workpiece. The angle between the vector of each of the measuring points and the vector of each of the virtual probes is calculated. A virtual probe is determined for each measuring point according to the calculated angles. The measuring points are sorted according to the virtual probe of each measuring point, and the measuring programs of the sorted measuring points that relate to the same virtual probe are combined. The combined measuring programs are executed to determine whether the actual probe would collide with the workpiece.

In a method for establishing a safety plane in coordinate measurements, the method meshes a 3D model of a workpiece and a probe by triangles, and calculates a maximum bounding box of the probe. The method further obtains a moving path of the maximum bounding box after moving the maximum bounding box from a first measuring point to a second, and obtains a maximum space box of the moving path. If the maximum space box has one or more intersections with the workpiece, the method calculates a distance between vertices of each of the triangles falling within the maximum space box and a bottom face of the maximum space box, and obtains a point in the bottom face of the maximum space box that has a maximum distance from the triangles. By correcting a plane containing the point, the safety plane is obtained.

In a method for extracting data of a product, an electronic design document related to the product and point cloud created using actual measurements of the product are received. The point cloud includes points of the product. The method aligns the curved surface of the product with the corresponding portion of the point cloud using a best-fit method, creates a maximum space box for a feature element of the product, and deletes points that are not within the maximum space box. According to an average distance between two neighboring points of the point cloud, the maximum space box can be divided into many small space boxes. Using the small space boxes, the points are filtered to form a feature element.

A curved surface importing device and method imports character strings of graphic parameters and graphic attributes of graphs from an initial graphic exchange specification (IGES) document, and analyzes the character strings of each of the graphs to generate a graphic model. The curved surface importing device converts the graphic model to a plurality of free-form curves and a free-form curved surface, connects each of the free-form curves to generate a closed boundary curve, and cuts out a contour surface from the free-form curved surface according to the closed boundary curve. The curved surface importing device further meshes the contour surface using a plurality of triangles, and determines an approximate poly-line of a boundary of the contour surface. The plurality of triangles and the approximate poly-line of a boundary of the contour surface are displayed on a display screen.

A programming method of a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) constructs a polygonal mesh model for a manufactured part according to a point cloud of the manufactured part. Basic measurement elements, relational measurement elements, a part coordinate system, and a collision-free inspection path are obtained according to the polygonal mesh model, so as to generate a measurement program of the CMM.

A computer-implemented method for extracting boundary elements of an object includes receiving measurement data of a point cloud of the object and a maximum edge length of a triangle to form a triangular mesh surface of the point cloud, constructing the triangular mesh surface, and extracting boundary points from the triangular mesh surface. The method further includes grouping the boundary points according to a vector relationship between one boundary point and each of the other boundary points, fitting each group of boundary points to an appropriate boundary characteristic. The appropriate boundary characteristic may be output to a storage system.

A computer implemented method for aligning objects receives a reference object and a to-be-moved object; determining feature elements of the reference object. A first coordinate system is constructed according to a plurality of feature elements of the reference object. A second coordinate system is constructed according to a plurality of feature elements of the to-be-moved object. A third coordinate system is constructed according to the first coordinate system and the second coordinate system. An operation matrix is computed according to the three coordinate systems. The two objects are aligned using the operation matrix.
