Abstract

A method measures an object using a CMM having a CMM accuracy. To that end, the method provides a jogbox with a 3D scanner having a scanner accuracy, positions the object on the CMM, and scans, using the 3D scanner, the object to produce scan data of the object. The method also measures a first portion of the object using the scan data, and a second portion of the object using the CMM. The CMM accuracy is more accurate than the scanner accuracy.
