Abstract
Fast and efficient position check is extremely important in the production cycle. It is hard for us to check every particular detail in series because of the short time period. So far, the mode of operation has been associated with statistical laws. Depending on the size of series, a random sample is taken in certain percentage, and afterwards the position and geometry are manually controlled. This paper attempts to analyze photogrammetrical approach which allows simple automatically controlled positions set in advance as well as undemanding documentation of all analyzed parts. This kind of approach came into being in a vast industrial environment with a great tendency for further development. For the purpose of the research, the program solution has been developed. This kind of approach recognizes the type and sort of parts automatically and then loads relevant control positions from the database. The proposed approach reduces time needed for position control and therefore enables greater control of higher amount of parts which in turn directly contributes to earlier failure detection. On the other side, program solution can easily be adapted to specific situations in the production plant. As a result of the increase of automatization level, the need for employment is lower and as a result also the cost of control
