Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) can automate the measurement process and consequently eliminate quality inspection bottlenecks. The highly adaptable tools can measure a wide range of parts and materials and quickly adapt to production changes.

As manufacturers are gradually tasked with delivering more output with smaller staffs and producing less scrap along the way, quality will help them sustain growth in a downsized manufacturing environment.

It has been said that one of the greatest attributes of humankind is the want and need to bring order to and better understand the universe and our place in it. To do this, we have qualified, quantified, and categorized just about everything around us and analyzed and ranked the relationships among just about all things. 

If you want to get technical, this topic is better dealt with by others since it is a quality matter rather than dimensional metrology where I hide out. But, disputes go on every day over measurements and sometimes resolving them can be quite challenging—when possible. 

This one starts innocently enough, but is difficult to stop.
