Abstract
Dimensional measurements based upon point sampling contain theoretically infinite uncertainties in the intervals between sample locations. In practice, the uncertainty is bounded due to material and process constraints which produce an effective minimum spatial frequency for surface errors. In this paper we develop a relation for measurement uncertainty due to workpiece form error using the ratio between the spatial frequency of workpiece errors and the sampling period. Several applications of this calculation are briefly discussed.
