Abstrakt: Quality inspection is the source of vital information for business control and improvement in manufacturing. This paper describes research at the University of Bristol, in collaboration with Rolls-Royce plc, to develop automated inspection planning and computer aided inspection applications. The inspection planning system involves the representation of inspection features and the manufacturing process model, together with an automated planning mechanism driven by rule-based plan reasoning. The shop-floor computer aided inspection workstation uses hand-held instruments interfaced to a computer, and provides flexible, interactive assistance for the dimensional inspection task. Batch and component traceability and control, together with a range of quality information storage and reporting functions, are provided.
