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,
ZydecoPete

I have yet to hear many good things about them. I always ask people what their experience is with them and many people bought them for inspecting parts in the machine and for their portability. They all found like Matt said that the accuracy is not very good at all and can't apply them because the parts need a more accurate gage.

People that have said positive things about them are fabrication shops that need to meausre things like weldments. Those folks are usually dealing with loose tolerances.
