Choose a CMM for accuracy, then speed

Article Abstract:

Coordinate-measuring machines (CMM) are used in manufacturing operations to collect accurate data. A CMM's true accuracy is determined by how the system is used. Inspecting higher number of points per workpiece ensure higher accuracy. There are two techniques in using CMMs. Single-point probing inspects a part at individual points on a workpiece. CMM scanning continuously scan along the workpiece surface and collects hundreds of independent probe points. Of the two, the latter is more efficient because it can make accurate measurements at high speed.
