Considering these two types of coordinate measuring machines and get a quick idea of the strength & weaknesses of CMM's
We are in an assembly type mfg environment & we have what we consider large parts up 90" long by 36" wide & then of course have small component parts. Tolerance will get down to +/- 0.005 on some parts.
Articulating arms seem great for portability into the plant mfg area but their ability for small repetitive measurements at tighter tolerances is not so good.
The bridge style seems great for repeable measurements, escpecially the small parts but the unit is stationary.
I'm trying to write justification papers for each type of CMM and I'm looking for any type of help listing out advantages / didavantages of both types. Even listing applications of both. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve
