How To Handle Down CMMs?

Good Morning,

Let say your CMM is down and a tech is scheduled to go to your job site next week to troubleshoot and during that time your CMM in inoperable. What does your company do to keep production running when your CMM is not available? How do you all handle that? You don't have any other CMMs to take on the work. You aren't in a position to outsource the CMM inspections.

Thanks.

In the past we have measured everything manually that we can when the CMM went down. The parts would be dated and time stamped so that they can be run on the CMM when it was recalibrated/after repairs had been made. Most of the parts we make are required to have CMM data that is attached to shipments and data needs to be taken during production runs as well.
