Straight styli are used to detect easily reachable features on the measured surface. Silicon nitride is extremely hard and superbly wearresistant, with the least surface roughness of all ball materials, which makes it highly applicable for most scan applications.Silicon nitride does not attract aluminium particles when scanning aluminium workpiece surfaces. Carbon fibre, the very lightweight and extremely stiff high quality material, with a thermal expansion coefficient to zero, is particularly suitable for the manufacture and application of long styli and extensions.The scanning of abrassive surfaces, like cast iron, is not recommended due to agressive wear.
