ABSTRACT

A machining system includes an automated manipulator configurable between a
measuring configuration, in which a position probe is operable, and a
machining configuration, in which a tool is operable, a fixture for holding a
template or a workpiece, and a controller. The controller is configured cause
the automated manipulator, in the measuring configuration, to move the
position probe to at least one reference feature of the template held in the
fixture, to determine coordinate data associated with the at least one
reference feature. Then, the controller provides the determined coordinate
data to a machine learning agent which is trained to provide an estimate of
machining coordinate deviation based on the determined coordinate data. If the
estimated machining coordinate deviation is below a threshold coordinate
deviation, the automated manipulator is allowed to proceed to machine a
workpiece.
