CMM Calibration Artifact
CMM Calibration Artifact
Our CMM Calibration Artifact is designed for use as an intermediate check with Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) and includes an ISO-17025 accredited certification.
It is designed to provide added confidence in a CMM between annual calibrations. By performing an artifact calibration routine on a regular schedule, the accuracy of your CMM is monitored and allows you to be proactive if any “drift is discovered.
Step Model showing exactly where to program part for operator to match our actual measurement data points
GEN-3 CMM Artifact
Includes•
Storage Case
• 3D Model in step format
• Nominal list of measurement points
• CMM program in DMIS format
A variety of geometry types are included: circles, slots, widths, spheres, cone, etc.
Optionally, a CMM program in DMIS format is available for measuring the artifact. This ensures that the measurement routine is the same as the one used to certify the artifact.
Please call for price on the standard with the new GD&T included per below and MBD (Model based definition) model.
GD&T INCLUDED
- Perpendicularity
- Flatness
- True position
- Profile
- Perpendicularity
- Parallelism
All CMM Artifacts are made in USA and certified ISO 17025
- What is the accuracy of the features on the artifact? – The CMM Artifact is not made to a stated accuracy, The CMM Artifact is ISO 17025 certified on a coordinate measuring machine Our uncertainty for values on the report is approximately ±.00005” over 12”.
The actual measurements from the CMM Artifact from our certified coordinate measuring machine are reported. Our reported ACTUALS are for you to compare on your CMM - You get an artifact that allows you to track drift of machine in between calibrations. We certify this on a high accuracy scanning UISO 17025 lab CMM and provide inspection reports so you can watch your CMM potential drift in relation to our readings.
- Item is composed of the A-2 tool steel
- Step file is included in base price
Overall dimensions 10 x 12″
NOTE:
There are no custom software programs, We provide Native DMIS and for programming on your own: A Step CAD file with identified data measurement points for the comparison to our ISO 17025 high accuracy CMM.
Note: if you wish to use the DMIS portion of our program you will need to make sure your software is native DMIS compliant. If not, you can still use as step file

• What is the accuracy of the program you can provide? The program replicates on a point-by-point basis the nominal values used to certify the artifact before shipping.
• Can we get data for the physical artifact to compare with our results? The report provided with the artifact provides the actual measurement results for the artifact and can be used to compare to customer results.
What inspection methods were used to inspect and validate the CMM Artifact. The artifact is measured on a Mitutoyo Apex series CMM with a measurement uncertainty of (42µ+0.6L)µin
It should be noted that the artifact is intended to be used as an Intermediate Check to validate that the CMM used to measure it is functioning correctly between regular CMM Calibration intervals. It is NOT intended to be used to calibrate the CMM.
We send a Cad file showing exact locations of where to program your part from if you don’t want to deal with the pure dmis to pc dmis syntax errors.
Note: The only program that’s included is a DMIS program . We send you a CAD file with the appropriate locations for the features that are measured to be duplicated in your programming of the artifact. This way your results match our results. You would write the program yourself. We do not send you programs specific to any individual cmm software platform. .
