Buying a video coordinate measuring machine is a big decision because it involves a big financial investment. Another challenge in choosing the right machine is availability of an overwhelming choice of machines in different sizes and technology. So, how would you choose the right machine for your needs? Size The most important factor in a video coordinate measuring machine is its size. The thing to remember is that you should keep your future needs in mind so that you don’t need buying a new weighing scale in future. For example, a machine working in X-Y-Z direction would be 20% bigger than the size of parts to be measured. Accuracy Related to functionality of a machine, it determines its quality. There is a set formula for measuring accuracy and the latest technology machines are designed using that formula. You should check the accuracy reading of a machine before making an opinion on it. Portable or fix Metrology measuring instruments can be divided into portabl

Measurement is an important part of quality control and assurance. The system started in ancient Egypt that developed standards of measurement. Today there is visual measurement system that works on the same standards established centuries ago. Advantage of the latest technology-based coordinate measuring system is that it provides error free data. The data obtained by technology is always accurate hence reliable. Another advantage of the latest measuring system is its ease of use. For example, the users have the option of using fixtures or rotating system according to their convenience. Gauges and single-used measuring devices are helpful only when the product to be measured is single. But when there is a global supply then you need a different system that can take correct measurement of every part and record data. Technical advancements have made it possible to make machines that can easily measure individual parts of a given device with amazing accuracy. Your quality contr
