Coordinate Measuring Machine : HandyPROBE Portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) - Creaform

http://www.creaform3d.com/en/handyprobe/handyprobe.aspx - The portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) arm-free probing system HandyPROBE and the C-Track dual-camera sensor form a unique duo that generates high accuracy measures and increases the reliability and speed of the measurement process.

Compared to other existing coordinate measurement technologies, the portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) arm-free probing system HandyPROBE gives you total freedom of movement, allowing for significant increase in productivity and quality of work.

Benefits of the HandyPROBE

Higher measurement accuracy: The operator can choose to work in Dynamic referential mode, which allows him to move both the C-Track sensor and the part during the measurement process, without any loss in accuracy or tracking. This feature proves particularly useful in real work environments and shop floors, as it allows data acquisition of hard-to-reach areas and measurement in environments with vibrations without requiring rigid set-ups.

Faster and easier measurement: Handheld, armless device and wireless data transmission process that allow the user to move freely around the part. Automatic alignment with optical reflectors allowing to probe many identical parts in rapid succession. Lightweight (1 lb), it can be used during extended periods of time without causing musculo-skeletal problems.

Greater, extendable measurement volume: Compared to other portable CMM systems, the HandyPROBE offers a greater basic measurement volume. Plus, this volume can be easily and dynamically extended with no loss in accuracy - and without any conventional leapfrog or additional alignment set-up involved. No need for the operator to re-align the data after moving the part or the C-Track, which leads in less set-ups and error accumulation.

Truly portable device: The portability of the HandyPROBE makes it possible to inspect or reverse engineer parts, sub-units or complex assemblies with unequalled precision, mobility and flexibility - no matter where (lab, factory, off-site, etc.).

User friendly: Easy to learn, intuitive system with a very short learning curve -- you can keep using the same metrology software and probing techniques! Installation in less than 5 minutes. Allows the measurement of parts in production without having to align every part.

Excellent ROI: Yields considerable productivity and money gains in the field of industrial coordinate measurements and controls.
