Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Precision Metrology

工业/大学精密计量合作研究中心（CPM）支持大学研究人员和来自紧密公差制造社区的支持附属机构之间的必要凝聚力，以开发下一代制造工程师，测量技术，计量仪器，高效流程，并使产品能够促进精密制造的进步，其中最先进的尺寸公差通常为百万分之十。上述广泛的目标将通过工业附属成员与大学教师和学生研究人员一起提出的现实世界中与精密相关的制造问题的检查来实现。解决的问题将有足够的普遍利益，工业附属成员将在半年一次的会议上投票批准。解决实际问题将为学生提供与当前严格容忍的制造业挑战相关的应用教育，并培养出能够在现实环境中解决类似问题的训练有素的员工。

The Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Precision Metrology (CPM) supports the necessary cohesion between university researchers and supporting affilates from the tight-tolerance manufacturing community for the development of the next generation of manufacturing engineers, measurement techniques, metrology instrumentation, efficient processes, and enabling products that will facilitate advances in precision manufacturing where state-of-the-art dimensional tolerances on the order of ten parts per million are common.The above-mentioned broad objective will be realized through the examination of real world precision related manufacturing problems presented by industrial affiliate members in conjunction with university faculty and student researchers. The problems addressed will have sufficient generic interest for industrial affiliate members to approve by vote at semiannual meetings. Addressing real problems will provide the students with an applied education pertinent to current tight-toleranced manufacturing challenges and result in highly-trained employees that can solve similar problems in a real-world environment.
