I don't know much about industry 4.0 but I know a lot of things are going towards automation and some people have even told me that CMM's are old technology that is basically obsolete.
(We just had a brand new machine installed within the last few weeks so I can confirm they are not obsolete)
I don't think CMM programmers are going anywhere for at least 30 years.
I have been doing this for around 8 years, and the process really hasn't changed at all since then.
We cant even get Hexagon to add a function to change a program from inches to MM.... (I'm not bitter about that at all lol)
