There are a variety of considerations when choosing the right vision metrology system. To avoid making costly procurement mistakes, following some straightforward guidelines for selecting a system will serve machinists and QC inspectors well. Primary factors include examining budget, application requirements including accuracy and speed, facility environment, QC data collection objectivity vs subjectivity, and user skill. It is also key to review the capabilities of the metrology system's software suite and how its features complement the user's application requirements. Automation solutions should also be a consideration, as automation is increasingly being deployed to improve productivity and throughput, such as capturing discrete points on a part's profile to be built into the inspection process as programmable steps.
