This presentation outlines the key choices facing a CMM user who needs to specify a probing system.

Key questions:
•Do my measurement applications require a scanning solution?
•If so, what is the scanning performance of the system?
•Scanning accuracy at high speeds
•Total measurement cycle time, including stylus changes
•If I also need to measure discrete points, how fast can I do this?
•Will I benefit from the flexibility of an articulating head
•Access to the component
•Sensor and stylus changing
•What are the lifetime costs?
•Purchase price
•What are the likely failure modes and what protection is provided?
•Repair / replacement costs and speed of service
