Overview: The incompatibility between metrology systems of different manufacturers is a serious challenge for the science of metrology as it enters a new millennium. For decades, metrology equipment manufacturers sold turnkey packages, including hardware, software, controllers, sensors, parts, and service. It is in these situations that multiple systems from different equipment manufacturers create difficulties that affect not only quality control but also product development and production. In recent years, metrology equipment manufacturers have begun opening their systems with drivers that allow third-party software developers entrée to the machine control function. This approach to integrated metrology operations will offer users significant gains in productivity, throughput, and efficiency. It is truly the dawn of a new era in measurement and inspection technology. In addition, integration, with its potential to harness the power of dimensional measurement for improved process control and product quality and reliability, is an idea whose time has come.
