I was thinking the same thing. CMM programmers aren't going anywhere & CMM will still be relevant piece for a long time unless machine builders will find a way to merge CNC & CMM in one package. If 4.0 is about automation & data then it missies one important point in the whole equation. It boils down to make the good part & check it right. Boatload of data & automation won't change that paradigm.
