Abstract: An apparatus for providing feedback to the operator of a portable coordinate measurement machine which comprises an articulated arm having jointed arm segments is presented. The apparatus includes sensing deformation of a portion of the articulated arm when the arm is placed under a load, the deformation being an indication of the magnitude of the external force being applied to the arm, and providing feedback to the operator of the CMM in response to the sensed external forces.

Abstract: A method for improving the measurement accuracy of a portable coordinate measurement machine which comprises an articulated arm having jointed arm segments is presented. This method includes sensing deformation of a portion of the articulated arm when the arm is placed under a load, this deformation causing an error in the measurement made by the CMM, and correcting such error in response to the sensed deformation.

Abstract: A portable coordinate measurement machine comprises an articulated arm having jointed arm segments. The jointed arm segments include a rotatable shaft, at least two spaced bearings and a housing surrounding the bearings and shaft wherein races for the bearings are formed by at least one of the following: (1) the shaft constitutes the inner race of at least one of the two bearings and (2) the housing constitutes the outer race of at least one of the two bearings.

Abstract: An articulated arm for use in a coordinate measuring machine. The arm includes a serial network for communicating data from transducers located in the arm to a controller. Each transducer includes a transducer interface having a memory which stores transducer data. The controller serially addresses each memory and handshaking is performed to transfer the data from the transducer interface memory to the controller.
