This Master’s Thesis contributes to the improvement of metrological reliability of machined components that are used in the nuclear industry for the production of electrical energy and which are produced with reduced tolerances defined in the project. The work is of interest to the company Indústrias Nucleares do Brasil (INB), which operates in production of the uranium fuel assemblies for nuclear power plants in Angra, improving the analysis of the measuring process. The dissertation fulfill the goal, by the development of a methodology to use in evaluation of coordinate measuring technique that is used in the process of dimensional inspection of machined components for the nuclear industry. The motivation is to improve the metrological reliability required in the inspection, adding knowledge and technological innovation. The work incorporates an analysis of uncertainties associated with the measurement process by coordinates, of machined components. The methodology uses bibliographic research and experimental methods of evaluation of uncertainty based on a statistical formulation, in measurement procedures of interest to the nuclear industry. In the results are characterized the influences of the measurement on the object characteristic of measurement, the divergence is evaluated by measuring against a standard. It was developed a tool to evaluate and improve the measurement process. In conclusion, the study contributes to the improvement of the coordinate measuring technique incorporating technological innovations, improving the quality of procedures for dimensional inspection.
