Computer numerical control machining center with integrated coordinate measuring unit and method for measuring a workpiece in situ

摘要

The present invention relates to a computer numerical control machining center, comprising at least one coordinate measuring unit (1) which is arranged attached to the machining center (2) and which in turn comprises a carriage (3) in which a laser emitter (4) is located, where said carriage (3) is movable with respect to a column (5) according to a vertical axis (Z) perpendicular to the lateral axis (Y), where said column (5) is in turn movable with respect to a bed plate (6) according to the lateral axis (Y), the machining center (2) comprising at least one reflective element (7) located in the machining center (2), such that the laser emitter (4) can move automatically along the lateral axis (Y) and vertical axis (Z) and a laser beam (8) sequentially strikes in a plurality of required positions, said at least one reflective element (7) reflects the laser beam (8) in each of the positions, and the machine comprising a processing unit wherein the measurements of said plurality of positions are recorded and processed.
