Abstract
The evaluation technology of products with complex form is needed along with the various type and amount of production of machining. It has the problem with a difficult measurement of the slope and free form surfaces due to quantities of light shortage though a lot of noncontact CMM(Coordinate Measuring Machine) are being done by the technique of laser now. In this research, the multi–axis robot system was constructed using confocal laser sensor and the multi–joint robot that combined 6–axis manipulator with 2–axis table. The effectiveness of the multi–axis use and the improvement of measurement accuracy were experimentally evaluated for complex form including the free form surface.
