We need to verify that some 3D parts are built "as drawn", and thought the answer was to buy the digitizing probe and use it to take a point cloud of points off of the part and compare to the original CAD.
Unfortunately high accuracy is required, and we're finding that on any part with a significant slope to it that the stylus is deflecting to the side prior to the red light indicating that it has registered the dimension. So we're inaccurate in x/y/z. Problem. Also a problem that diameter of the stylus isn't accounted for automatically (and it on a slope it hits on the edge rather than in the center).
Any help or tips here? Other than saying to go out and get it laser scanned...
