Today’s mold manufacturer is often looking for time and cost savings on many levels. There are solutions—whether it is to reduce development times, accelerate the configuration of entire initial sample test reports or shorten reaction times for damage analyses. […]
To answer this, it is first important to understand how the faster measurements are achieved in production manufacturing operations. The major limitation of conventional, three-axis scanning is that any attempt to move rapidly the large mass of a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) in a non-Cartesian trajectory results in inertial errors caused by accelerations and decelerations.
