■ Summary
Accurate multi-hole measurement is essential for quality assurance in machining and assembly. Learn the root causes of deviation and how to prevent measurement errors that could lead to rejected parts or assembly failures.

■ Common Issues in Multi-Hole Position Measurement
In industries like automotive, electronics, and mechanical assembly, accurately measuring the position of multiple holes is critical. However, many factories face persistent problems such as:
・ Variations in measurement results across inspections
・ Hole positions deviating from CAD drawings despite proper machine operation
・ Measured hole positions deemed acceptable but causing misalignment during assembly
・ Unexplained tolerance deviations beyond specifications
・ Accumulated error increasing with distance from the reference point
These issues result in production delays, increased inspection times, and customer dissatisfaction due to faulty assemblies.

■ Root Causes of Measurement Deviation
These errors are often caused by a mix of human, technical, and environmental factors:
・ Incorrect reference setup: Small errors in base point or datum cause global offset in all hole positions
・ Long distance from reference point: The farther the measurement, the greater the potential error
・ Use of inappropriate measuring tools: Tools like calipers may not offer sufficient micron-level precision
・ Poor operator technique: Misidentifying the true center of a hole leads to cumulative errors
・ Workpiece deformation or instability: Thin or large parts can shift, tilt, or distort during inspection
・ Temperature effects: Expansion due to heat changes hole position readings, especially with metals

■ Preventive and Control Measures
To improve multi-hole position accuracy, implement the following practices:
・ Use a stable, repeatable reference point: Employ jigs or custom fixtures to ensure consistent workpiece placement
・ Upgrade to high-precision tools: CMMs or optical systems are ideal for tight-tolerance measurement
・ Train personnel: Educate staff on correct center-finding and proper handling of metrology tools
・ Pre-inspect parts: Remove oil, dirt, and check for flatness before measuring
・ Control measurement environment: Maintain stable temperature, humidity, and cleanliness in inspection zones
・ Use go/no-go gauges: These comparative tools confirm pass/fail without requiring exact values
・ Calibrate measuring instruments: Schedule regular calibration to ensure tool accuracy over time

Preventing error at the measurement stage saves cost and protects production quality downstream.
