ABSTRACT:
A geometric simulator apparatus is provided for testing the measurement accuracy of coordinate measuring machines, including the software therefore. A three-tiered cylindrical solid structure includes two differently sized cylinder diameters. A pair of parallel flat planar surfaces is formed perpendicular to the planar flat top surface. The bottom surface is a flat annular-shaped surface that defines a cavity which can be used to support the apparatus during storage or transport. A separate attachment is provided for introducing error measurements into the testing of the coordinate measuring machine. The attachment includes a flexible thin plate of predetermined thickness and having an elastic strap attached to each end to hold the plate against one of the cylindrical outer surfaces of the simulator apparatus.
