Often, manufactured part measurement processes are impacted by misalignment between the measurement device and the part itself. Most measurement devices acquire their data in a grid or square format. Most of the time, the part being measured by these devices has its own orientation and structure to the features to be measured. A great example …

An Innovation Forum Webinar (Link to Register). Join us on May 18th 2021 for a topical conference on metrology. We will be presenting a few important considerations that enable our users to measure much larger parts while retaining the same microscale precision they are accustomed to when using their laboratory benchtop tools.
<meta name=”robots” content=”noindex”> Over the past few years, our customers have come to us with consistent challenges surrounding their metrology equipment used for precision surface measurement. Off-the-shelf metrology tool limitations forced them to look elsewhere. Not enough precision, not enough automation, and not the right measurement technology were all reasons that pushed to find alternatives. …
