The Sheffield 4.5.4 SF is a new line of coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) built for the shop floor and designed to withstand harsh manufacturing environments. The SF series introduces a variety of evolutionary advancements based on the Discovery line with thousands of earlier units in the field worldwide. With a major focus on portability, the […]
QUADRA-CHEK Metrology Software for 3D profiling
HEIDENHAIN announced the latest version of their PC-based QUADRA-CHEK Metrology software for inspection measurement machines. This software makes it possible to conveniently perform 2-D and 3-D measuring tasks in the field of metrology when standard DRO products will not suffice. Labeled the IK5000 version 2.96, this inspection package builds upon the original Metronics QUADRA-CHECK QC5000 […]
Mitutoyo releases affordable 1.7 µm class CNC CMM
With a maximum error of MPEE = (1.7+3L/1000) μm, the new CMM more than doubles the effective measuring range at a given measurement tolerance as compared to typical CMMs in its class. Additionally, the CRYSTA-Apex®S drive features high-speed (max 519 mm/s) and high acceleration (max 2,309 mm/s2). These advances result in higher throughput for greater productivity and lower total owning and operating costs.
