The use of the virtual instrumentation for the dimensioinal control – first part

Abstract

The paper describes of the dimensional control nowadays, giving emphasis to the advantages of the modern methods. One of these methods is about the dimensional control aided by computer, by creating virtual instruments for measuring. Is presented and described the measuring schema which can be used in case of the dimensional deviations control of some symmetrical revolution probes. Especially is about the data acquisition systems. The virtual instrument is the software environment in which the acquisitioned and stored data can be displayed and analysed to the PC or to a computer network. The advantage of using a virtual instrument for the dimensional control is that it permits a modularized control for different types and dimensions of the probes, due to its relatively simply adaptation, depending by the measured parameter.
