Market for precision measuring instruments will expand

The market for precision measuring instruments will expand. Advances in science and technology continue to place higher and newer requirements on instrumentation. The development trend of instrumentation is to constantly use new working principles and adopt new materials and new components, such as the use of ultrasonic, microwave, ray, infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, superconductivity, laser and other principles and the use of various new semiconductor sensing elements, Integrated circuits, integrated optical circuits, optical fibers and other components.

The ever-increasing demand for accurate component measurements has been the most important factor that has driven the growth in demand for digital digitisers and scanners worldwide. As the capital used for testing new technologies is sufficient, the aviation and automotive end-user industries have played a key role in pioneering this technology and have also promoted the development of the market. On the other hand, the maturity of certain end-user industries has had a negative impact on demand in these areas, forcing participants in the market to actively look for new ways to expand their markets, such as larger manufacturing industries.

However, despite the huge market potential of optical digitizers and scanners, this relatively new technology has brought great challenges to industry participants. In traditional production environments, conservative end-users are slow to accept this technology, and in some cases they even consider the coordinate measuring instrument (cmm) probe as an acceptable, prioritized method. When servicing a niche market for manufacturing, in order to meet the needs of practical applications, this technology and its related software need to be customized, and market participants often find that the integration of scanning solutions is time-consuming.
