Data stitch brings improved accuracy and testing to international standards for long axes

The latest release of CARTO software suite, version 4.9, provides analysis-based data stitch functionality for long axes using Renishaw’s XM-60 multi-axis calibrator and XL-80 laser system. The new analysis-based data stitch function in CARTO Explore allows users of XM-60 and XL-80 laser systems to analyse stitched data to international standards. By adding this function to CARTO Explore, data captured from the XM-60 using the target-based measurement mode can now be easily stitched together and
