We have our machinists run my EDM electrode inspection programs using a 3r systems fixture and on the regular PC-DMIS CAD++ software connected to the machine. The machinists always loads the trode using the same reference indicated on our CAD models and pallets. They also clean their own probe tips and trodes. 99.9% of the time they are autonomous without my help.
LOL. I think I might trust a machinist that normally deals with EDM machines or cuts electrodes to take better care of a CMM than many full time CMM operators. You certainly need a decent head on your shoulders to do that kind of work.
