Abstract
A method and apparatus for positioning a plurality of works combined to assemble an article. Values of positions of a plurality of reference points set on each of the works are measured. The measured position values are accumulated to provide measured position data defining a measured position of the work. The measured position data are compared with design data defining a position specified for the work to provide error data defining a difference between the measured and specified positions for the work. The error data are used to position the work with respect to the other works.
