Abstract
Systems and methods for verifying a materials processing path on a work piece are described. In one embodiment, a system for verifying a material process path on a work piece includes a processing unit operable to receive processing instructions to control a motion of a machine tool device relative to a work piece. A tool holder of the machine tool device retains a tool path tracing assembly that applies a mark to a surface of the work piece as the assembly is moved along the material process path.
