Romer portable coordinate measuring machines are designed for industries that need to inspect, measure or reverse engineer workpieces on the shop floor or in the metrology lab.
CMMs offer high precision and productivity
CMMs that are precise, reliable, high-productivity, cost-effective systems also offer superior operating flexibility for continuous scanning and point-to-point inspection.
It is therefore suitable for the simplest as well as for the most complex measuring applications, thus allowing to improve the overall efficiency of dimensional inspection with a very limited investment.
The Micro-Hite line is the outcome of the united experience of the companies of Hexagon Metrology in the field of research and development.
As a result, it can profit of the latest technologies, partly already proven on other machines of the group having a bigger measurement volume.
In particular, the Tricision? technology, the exclusive triangular beam design, allows the following.
* Better control over X beam rotations and consequently better measuring accuracy.
* Less repeatability errors.
* Higher acceleration and deceleration.
* Higher metrologic throughput.
Machine motion occurs on air pads that ensure smooth, frictionless movements.
In addition, the full aluminium structure improves thermal, dimensional, torsional and geometric stability of the machine.
The Micro-Hite line is supplied with the new line of Hexagon Metrology TesaStar sensors manufactured by TESA.
A wide range of TESA styli and accessories is available.
The Micro-Hite line is also fully compatible with Renishaw probes and accessories.
The PC-DMIS PRO measuring software ensures a perfect balance between power and ease of use.
It therefore allows to perform any dimensional inspection operation - from the simplest to the most complex applications.
PC-DMIS PRO is provided with an intuitive user interface guiding the operator through programming, setup and execution of the measurement cycles.
Advanced graphic functions allow to customise data presentation to meet any result analysis and interpretation requirement.
The use of the Probe and Go function allows the automatic recognition of the measurement element as soon as the probe comes into contact with it.
The graphic representation of the element is automatically generated on the screen.
In addition, the Quick Start function allows to get rapid access to the most frequently used operations.
To make the system even more versatile, the PC-DMIS CAD and PC-DMIS CAD++ are available as options.
