### Adaptive Cylinder Line Scan Strategy

This Adaptive Scanning measurement strategy for the Cylinder Auto Feature type scans a number of lines along the cylinder parallel to its axis.

The cylinder can be a threaded surface or a smooth surface.

Note: When you use this strategy, the diameter of the probe tip must exceed the size of the valleys in-between the threads in order to prevent probe shanking.

To perform a single scan, see Working with Measurement Strategies.
