Opinions on S.F. 4.5.4 CMM

Need some input if anyone is using a S.F. 4.5.4 as management is looking to buy one.

If you do, what are your thoughts on the CMM? Are they accurate? Are the repeatable? Any mechanical issues with them? Any and all legitimate comments are welcome.

TIA

  • They can also be moved without the need for Hexagon or riggers. I've moved them a couple of times with no problems.

    Like I said in my other post, it depends on what you want to inspect on them. If you have lots of really small parts, its ok, if you have larger parts you might start hitting the working volume and you'll have a hard time with probe changes and stuff.

    Do your homework.
  • management likes the idea of portability but my main concern is durability, accuracy and repeatability. Most of the parts that these machines will be checking are hip stems and femoral plates with the largest part being 1.5"W X 1.5"H X 7"L. The machine specs are borderline but should be OK for what needs to be measured.
