Abstract

This paper surveys the available technology for “in-process control” of machined products, particularly in relation to turning, and cylindrical grinding, prior to completion of the machining process. The techniques developed for controlling accuracy of the workpiece, whilst in situ, are described using representative examples of current technology. The description of new commercial instruments which perform “in-process control” and new devices which could be develop as “in-process measurement instruments” are also presented.
