| Whitepaper examines the importance of CMM stylus selection for measurement accuracy
When deciding the best way to measure a component on a co-ordinate measuring machine (CMM), many choices are made by default because they have been carefully thought through many times before. The accuracy specification of the CMM, the best type of sensor to use (touch or scanning) and the optimum probing method are often taken for granted and not questioned. However, this foundation for good metrology can be undermined by an inappropriate or ill-considered choice of stylus. [26 kB] | |

| Whitepaper examines the hidden potential of co-ordinate measuring machines
Measurement is vital to any manufacturing business, providing essential information to control processes and verify products. But older co-ordinate measuring machines (CMMs) can become bottlenecks if they fail to keep pace with changing measurement needs. Advances in sensor, metrology software and controller technology now offer the opportunity to transform existing CMMs, providing greater accuracy, faster measurement, more automation and new capabilities.

| Gear inspection is 30 times faster with form measurement
Meltham Mills Engineering (MME) now takes only eight minutes to inspect every critical feature on a typical gear component, compared to four hours previously – 30 times faster. Simultaneously, data is gathered on the form of features, the first time MME has had this automated capability. This has been made possible using Renishaw’s SP25 scanning probe fitted to a new Mitutoyo Crysta co-ordinate measuring machine (CMM) [34 kB] | |
