Abstract: Coordinate Measuring Machine is now mandatory in Industries for not only dimensional measurement but also form measurement of jobs. However, due to changes in temperature in Indian Scenario, Rigidity of guide ways, frictional bearings, it is always susceptible for error development. These errors if not addressed, integrates into dimensional measurement of workpart, which remains induced due to measurement system error. Best position of job in entire volume of CMM affects the accuracy of measurand and is the deciding factor in CMM measurement. An attempt is made in this paper, to establish low cost surface plate based method for quick check CMM accuracy measurement by operator only without requirement of Laser CMM expert. The outcome of method depicts closeness within 3 μm with laser interferometer. This saves at least two lakhs rupees per three months and the total saving will be 6 lakhs rupees, annually.
