5-Axis CMM Scan Paths
Technique: Edge Scan
EDGE SCAN is a 5-axis CMM tactile scanning technique. It drives the CMM in a uniform direction to minimize the inherent inaccuracies of the CMM structure while the system adapts to the changing surface shape by controlling the contact pressure of the stylus.

EDGE SCAN is well suited to the measurement of airfoil leading edges and similar contours.
