Which Portable Arm??

G'day Folks,

I don't know if this has been discussed in the past. I have no knowledge of portable arm cmm's.

I have run various cmm's in my career. I am currently using pcdmis version 3.7mr3.

What may be some of the pros and cons (if any) among the various types of portable arm cmms?

Are they difficult to become accustomed to?

I do appreciate your input.

Best Regards,

  • Biggest draw-back is that NONE of them that I have seen are even CLOSE to the accuracy claimed by the mfg. If you are looking to stay 'close' to CMM ability, stay with a CMM. There have been other posts about some of the arms (not sure of the brand names) that users had lots of problems with. Mostly the round, rotary 'scale' systems, I think.
