Introduction
This part of ISO 15530 is a general GPS document which influences chain link 6 of the chain of standards
on size, distance, radius, angle, form, orientation, location, run-out and datums in the general GPS matrix.
The ISO/GPS masterplan given in ISO/TR 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which this
document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO/GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and
the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this
document, unless otherwise indicated.
For more detailed information on the relation of this part of ISO 15530 to other standards and the GPS
matrix model, see Annex C.
It is the purpose of the ISO 15530 series to provide terminology, techniques and guidelines for estimating
task-specific measurement uncertainty when using coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). These
techniques allow for the evaluation of sources of uncertainty that affect a stated measurement, including
the influence of the coordinate measuring system, the sampling strategy, environmental effects, operator
variability and any other factors affecting the actual measurement result.
CMMs are considered to be complex GPS measuring equipment, and the estimation of the uncertainty
of CMM measurements often involves more advanced techniques than those described in ISO 14253-2.
The techniques presented in the ISO 15530 series are compliant with both ISO 14253-2 and
ISO/IEC Guide 98-3 (GUM). The techniques are developed specifically for CMMs but could be applied to
other GPS measuring equipment.
CMMs are specified by acceptance tests in the ISO 10360 series, which typically involve their ability
to measure calibrated lengths (e.g. volumetric tests using calibrated gauge blocks or step gauges) and
form (e.g. probing tests using a calibrated sphere). It is recognized that although these test results may
be used to determine an uncertainty for the specific types of length and form measurements involved
in these procedures, without further analysis or testing, these results are insufficient to determine the
task-specific measurement uncertainty of most workpiece measurements.
The goal of determining the measurement uncertainty can be achieved through many different
techniques; however, all methods must be consistent with ISO/IEC Guide 98-3, which yields a combined
standard uncertainty. The expanded uncertainty is connected to the combined standard uncertainty
via the coverage factor, which is selected to produce the desired level of confidence. The default value
for the coverage factor is two, i.e. k = 2, which yields a level of confidence of approximately 95 % if the
uncertainty is associated with a Gaussian distribution. It is the purpose of this document to provide
guidance on recognized techniques for the estimation of uncertainty of CMM measurements.

4 Metrological characteristics
4.1 General
Metrological characteristics of CMMs are of interest for the control of errors and uncertainty contributors
originating from the CMM and for the evaluation of uncertainty of measurement when using the CMM.
The influence of the individual metrological characteristics on the uncertainty of measurement is
dependent on the measurement process. The knowledge of the existence of the actual metrological
characteristics and the magnitude of their values may be the basis for the design of the measurement
process and the choice of the CMM.
4.2 Commerce
All metrological characteristics and their MPE (maximum permissible error) or MPL (maximum
permissible limit) values apply to the defined operating conditions of the specific CMM, e.g. probe
system qualification, speed of travel, etc. Operating conditions for CMMs are generally found in the
manufacturer’s operating manuals and specification data sheets and not normally in ISO standards.
All metrological characteristics and their MPE or MPL values apply to all possible orientations in
space, unless specific restrictions to the orientation are stated in the specific ISO standard or by the
manufacturer.
MPE or MPL values or functions for metrological characteristics for acceptance tests shall be supplied
by the manufacturer/supplier. The manufacturer may add additional information about metrological
characteristics and their MPE or MPL values.
4.3 Internal use in an organization
The customer shall identify and understand the major metrological characteristics by means of
uncertainty budgeting (for examples, see ISO 14253-2). Expert judgment and prior knowledge can be
used in the uncertainty estimation procedure. Calibration procedures can also be chosen based on
uncertainty budgets using expert judgment and prior knowledge.
MPE or MPL values or functions for metrological characteristics for internal calibrations and for
reverification tests shall be supplied by the user.
4.4 Identification, definition, and choice of metrological characteristics
4.4.1 Choice of metrological characteristics
Metrological characteristics of the CMM may be chosen and defined in several ways. Metrological
characteristics of the requirements (MPE and MPL) for these characteristics should preferably be chosen
and defined, including the necessary conditions, with respect to:
— common intended use of the CMM;
— independence of other metrological characteristics;
— the use in control of uncertainty contributors that relate to the CMM;

— relevance to the physical principles inherent in the CMM;
— the use in maintenance activities and error identification;
— relation to specific parts or functions, or both, in the CMM;
— measuring principle;
— relevance of magnitude compared to other metrological characteristics.
It may be beneficial for a user of a CMM to define metrological characteristics other than those given in
the standards to better fit the needs and intended use of the CMM.
4.4.2 Metrological characteristics in ISO 10360
The metrological characteristics defined in various parts of ISO 10360, as specified by the MPE or MPL
values, could be considered in the choice of metrological characteristics for a CMM.
4.4.3 Machine geometry errors and residual error motion
The geometric error motions of the moving elements of a CMM, e.g. straightness, squareness, roll, pitch,
and yaw, can often be measured. CMMs often utilize some type of software compensation for these
geometric error motions; however, residual errors may exist and these errors could also be considered
in the choice for metrological characteristics for a CMM.
4.4.4 Organization-specific requirements
Organizations may have specific or unique measurement requirements that can result in the selection
of specific metrological characteristics to meet those requirements.
4.4.5 Other metrological characteristics
A list of possible metrological characteristics to consider for a CMM is included in Annex B. This list is
not exhaustive, though it can be considered rather complete.
4.5 Calibration of metrological characteristics
The necessary metrological characteristics for the intended use of the CMM should be chosen and verified
by calibration (or reverification tests.) The calibrated values of the metrological characteristics should
be stated with the related measurement uncertainty, and, where appropriate, the calibrated values of
the metrological characteristic should be proven to be in conformance with MPE values.
NOTE In the normal use of measuring instruments, it is often possible and proper to limit the number of
requirements (different MPEs) and the extent of resources used to prove that the measuring instrument is
functioning according to the setup requirements (MPLs and MPEs).
5 Task-specific uncertainty
5.1 General
Modern coordinate measurement systems, typically involving multi-axis CMMs, are affected by an
extraordinary range of uncertainty sources. Thus, a complete assessment of the uncertainty sources
and how they influence a specific measurement result can be a formidable task. For purposes of this
part of ISO 15530, three general uncertainty categories are described that encompass not only the CMM
itself but also the entire measurement process. An extensive list of potential uncertainty sources can be
found in Annex B.

SIST-TS CEN ISO/TS 15530-1:2014
ISO/TS 15530-1:2013(E)

5.2 Instrumentation factors
Instrumentation factors include all errors that cause the measuring instrument, e.g. the CMM, to
inaccurately measure points in space. This may be due to geometrical errors in the machine structure
(both inherent to the manufacture of the CMM and those induced by dynamic effects, workpiece loading,
and the environment, i.e. temperature, vibration, etc.), errors in the probing system, and errors in other
sensor systems (temperature sensors, pressure sensors, etc.). Additionally, errors in the mathematical
formulation and execution of associated-feature-fitting algorithms supplied by the manufacturer for
data manipulation are included in this category. These factors are typically the responsibility of the
CMM manufacturer and are controlled by establishing permissible limits, e.g. temperature ranges, under
which the CMM may be used. Some or all of these error sources may be assessed during acceptance or
reverification testing of the CMM.
5.3 Measurement plan factors
Measurement plan factors involve how the CMM user decides to execute the measurement. This
includes the workpiece location and orientation, the probes and styli selected for the measurement,
and the particular measurement point sampling strategy. Additionally, the quantity being measured,
i.e. the measurand, shall be unambiguously specified. For example, in the case of a cylinder diameter
measurement, the user shall decide if a least-squares, minimum-circumscribed, maximum-inscribed
or minimum-zone result is desired. Some measurement plan factors may also influence the sensitivity
coefficients of other uncertainty components, for example the magnitude of a probe offset amplifies
CMM geometry errors.
5.4 Extrinsic factors
Extrinsic factors are often beyond the control of the CMM manufacturer and CMM user; nevertheless,
they affect the task-specific measurement uncertainty. They include non-ideal workpiece geometry (such
as surface roughness, form errors, finite stiffness and thermal distortions), contamination, workpiece
fixturing problems and variations among operators.
6 Techniques to determine task-specific measurement uncertainty components
6.1 General issues
To evaluate task-specific measurement uncertainty, the instrumentation, measurement plan and extrinsic
uncertainty sources shall be evaluated and combined in a manner consistent with ISO/IEC Guide 98-3.
Typically, several different evaluation techniques may be needed to include all sources. The various
uncertainty sources are then combined together using the law of propagation of uncertainty, yielding the
combined standard uncertainty. The combined standard uncertainty is then multiplied by the coverage
factor to yield the expanded uncertainty. The listing of the uncertainty sources, their combination, and
expression of the expanded uncertainty is known as the uncertainty budget.
6.2 Sensitivity analysis
This technique is described in ISO/IEC Guide 98-3. ISO 14253-2 is a simplified and iterative
implementation of this technique. Since CMMs are complex measuring instruments, directly
implementing this technique may only be possible for a limited number of measuring tasks. Essentially,
the technique consists of four steps.
a) List each uncertainty source to be included in the sensitivity analysis.
NOTE There are many different ways to separate uncertainty sources; hence, two equally valid
uncertainty budgets may have a different number of sources.
b) For each uncertainty source listed, quantify its magnitude by one standard deviation (known as the
standard uncertainty of the source).
