ACCURACY FIRST

  • Accuracy certified according to ISO 10360-2 or ASME B89 standard
  • Further improved accuracy by limiting calibration to actual working envelope


MEASURE ANYWHERE

  • True portable system thanks to lightweight carbon fiber and aluminum alloy components
  • Temperature compensation in +5 to +40°C temperature range


ERGONOMIC DESIGN

  • 6 or 7 axis version designed for touch probe measurement and laser scanning measurement
  • Electromagnetic brake blocks the lower segment of the arm thus partly bearing the arm weight
  • Ergonomic position of all measurement buttons including brake activation button 

FLEXIBLE PROBING

  • Metris’  unique floating touch probe assists users in applying constant contact forces, resulting in highly accurate and repeatable measurements.  Instant visual feedback helps the user to qualify his measurement
  • The Metris MMD laser scanner fits the 7 axis MCA and offers premium scanning capability and productivity, without requiring an interface box
