NIST Precision engineering research. Measurement of API Rotary Master Gauge on CMM. [1]Precision engineering is a subdiscipline of electrical engineering, software engineering, electronics engineering, mechanical engineering, and optical engineering concerned with designing machines, fixtures, and other structures that have exceptionally low tolerances, are repeatable, and are stable over time.
China National Precision Machinery Import/Export Corporation was included by the US Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) in its Sanction SDN List, [8] which denotes a list of "Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons" with "Strong" Category and are subject to Secondary Sanction. The list included entities ...

The first CMM was developed by the Ferranti Company of Scotland in the 1950s [1] as the result of a direct need to measure precision components in their military products, although this machine only had 2 axes. The first 3-axis models began appearing in the 1960s (made by DEA of Italy and LK of the UK), and computer control debuted in the early ...
The American Precision Museum is located in the renovated 1846 Robbins & Lawrence factory on South Main Street in Windsor, Vermont. The building is said to be the first U.S. factory at which precision interchangeable parts were made, giving birth to the precision machine tool industry.
The original class of machine tools for milling was the milling machine (often called a mill). After the advent of computer numerical control (CNC) in the 1960s, milling machines evolved into machining centers : milling machines augmented by automatic tool changers, tool magazines or carousels, CNC capability, coolant systems, and enclosures.
CAM software automates the process of converting 3D models into tool paths, the route the multiaxis machine takes to mill a part (Fig. 1). This software takes into account the different parameters of the tool head (in the case of a CNC router, this would be the bit size), dimensions of the blank, and any constraints the machine may have.
