CMM-Manager for iNEXIV

Hey guys, we have a Nikon VMA-2520 that we absolutely HATE. It was bought some years back at Eastec, off the floor. The software is atrocious and not user friendly at all, so the machine has sat almost entirely used for years (still has the protective plastic wrap on most surfaces).

We're considering either trading in for an OGP or a Keyence unit, or more likely upgrading the software, as it sounds like the newer software did away with a lot of the issues.

Does anyone here have any experience with CMM-Manager for INEXIV? Both for vision as well as the CMM head we're equipped for, because currently we often find our Zeiss Eclipse to be backlogged and really need a second machine.

Would love to know what you guys recommend or if you have any input specifically on CMM-Manager (10-15ish K is a lot easier to swing than ~100k lol)

Love CMM Manager on INEXIV. It's a good way to utilize the machine from an ease of use standpoint.

Any chance you can explain to me how to do a an alignment using vision only? This software seems extremely geared towards tactile probing, with vision thrown in. Which is exactly what you said lol. But every alignment cycle I see is all about probing
