CMM Time Study: 3 Axis vs 5 Axis with Metrologic Software

Supplier Resource

Overview

This time study, put together by our friends at Metrologic Group, shows the benefits of utilizing their software on a 5-Axis CMM with a Renishaw probe. They performed this side by side test on a 3-Axis setup vs a 5-Axis setup with their MetrologX4 software. The 5-Axis setup completes the demonstration in almost half of the time! Reach out to one of the precision measurement experts at Cross Company to see how you can utilize Metrologic software to increase the productivity of your 3-Axis CMM.
