An abnormality determination apparatus includes a data acquisition part that acquires position data indicating a plurality of positions to be measured of a standard gage used in a coordinate measuring apparatus, in association with apparatus identification information for identifying the coordinate measuring apparatus, a generation part that generates distance data indicating a distance to be measured that is a distance between the plurality of positions to be measured indicated by the position data, a storage that stores an appropriate range in which the distance data is determined to be appropriate, and a determination part that determines whether there is an abnormality in the coordinate measuring apparatus on the basis of whether or not the distance to be measured indicated by the distance data is included in the appropriate range, and outputs a determination result in association with the apparatus identification information.

Abnormality determination apparatus, abnormality determination method, and abnormality determination system

A main reference point PM is provided to a base portion of a shape measuring apparatus including a rotary table. An origin-point relative-value registration includes measuring a main reference point with a probe to acquire a coordinate value of the main reference point and registering as a calibration-reference-point coordinate value Pp, registering a rotation center point of the rotary table as a calibration-rotation-center coordinate value Rp, and calculating a relative coordinate value of the calibration-rotation-center coordinate value Rp with respect to the calibration-reference-point coordinate value Pp and registering as a rotary-table origin-point relative coordinate value &#x394;D. A rotary-table origin-point re-registration step includes the steps of measuring the main reference point with the probe to acquire a coordinate value the main reference point and registering as a current-reference-point coordinate value Pc, and adding the rotary-table origin-point relative coordinate value &#x394;Dto the current-reference-point coordinate value Pc to calculate a rotary-table origin-point current coordinate value Rc.

Control method of shape measuring apparatus
