Portable CMM arms are used to measure workpiece features and record their coordinate locations with software. CMM arms measure using either contact or noncontact methods and can be used in most environments on the production floor. CMM arms are used for many applications in manufacturing, including inspection, rapid prototyping, and reverse engineering processes. After taking this class, users will be able to describe CMM arms and best practices for using them.
