[QUOTE="PCDL, post: 59279, member: 5692"] Hi John- in dental, I would agree... but for metrology in general, touch scanning is still the gold standard... Conversations I have had with people doing R&D in the bar area told me they are getting accurate results (microscope verified) about 80% of the time with optical scanners (3Shape 700 and earlier models). Good, not great... As far as the Forte, its a great scanner for what it is.. Mine was checked out by the Renishaw guys, and since buying in 2004 I have a shade over 12,000 scans on the unit without any hiccups. If this 3Shape/Forte pairing works well, you may see a nice secondary market come up on used forte scanners, which can be had on the cheap right now. If I can make this work, Ill sure be happier than having to plunk down for a new D800. [/QUOTE]
