Resumen: Verification of workpieces is typically performed in the post-process with coordinate measuring machines, thereby increasing the manufacturing cycle time. However, machine tools presently can perform contact measuring operations by using a probe. Moreover, there is a growing need for in-process inspection of workpieces. Therefore, using the machine tool itself for the verification whilst the workpiece remains clamped to the machine can lead to an improvement in manufacturing efficiency, cost reduction, higher energy saving and better equipment productivity. However, the use of touch probes as a measurement tool in manufacturing requires some preparatory works. Firstly, the accuracy of the machine tool should be improved to reduce the influence of its geometric errors. Secondly, the uncertainties in calibration and measuring procedure should be determined to obtain the measurement uncertainty. This study presents a new tool that can analyse the effect of different verification parameters in calibration uncertainty based on Monte Carlo method. On the basis of the actual tests performed on a milling machine and its geometric errors, the effect of laser tracker measurement noise in calibration uncertainty is investigated.
