ABSTRACT:
In a method for identifying work pieces based on spatial coordinates. Each of a set of parts to be processed using a multi-axis, articulated spatial measurement arm, are marked with three points defining a distinctive triangle. In a data base, the side lengths of each distinctive triangle is referenced to the part it identifies and to related processing parameters. Before processing a part, the probe of the measurement arm is successively positioned on each of the marked points. Data processing equipment associated with the arm retrieves from the data base the identification of the part and the related parameters.
