I am trying to set up barcode scanners on our CMMs so that when the operator puts a part on the fixture, they will scan the part and it will automatically open the proper program. If this kind of thing possible? I have seen some people using scanners to add data via comments, but is it feasible to scan a part and have it open the corresponding program?
Thought I saw a camera from Hexagon that would mount to the bridge of the CMM. It would recognize the part and then open the correct program. Can't find it now but ...... Unless I'm going senile again.
