Dimensional measuring machines fitted on production lines ensure proper tool control in industrial processes, so ensuring product quality. This paper describes equipment installed by Renault in their Douai factory, based on a real-time, entirely automatic system of tool control in body manufacture. It is based on use of the Unisurf method and the system is a complete assembly integrating numerical details of surfaces and tool designs and corresponding details of robot devices used. Considerable use is made of fibre optic devices to avoid faults caused by electromagnetic disturbances. The main parts of the installation are described.
