XM series - Handheld Probe Coordinate Measuring Machine

The XM Series is a handheld coordinate measuring machine (CMM) that lets anyone easily measure 3D/GD&T features. The system is portable and shop-floor ready, so measurements can be taken in any location. The unit also automatically records measurement data and creates detailed inspection reports. The images showcases our latest XM-5000 model which allows high-accuracy measurement for palm-sized parts to large applications.

Dual-Camera Probe Marker Tracking

The XM-5000 adopts a new concept with a tracking camera that captures near-infrared light emitted by seven markers.
The probe search camera also enables measurement over a wide-area.

Probe Position Detection: Wide-Area Probe Search Camera

The probe search camera constantly tracks the light emitted by the probe to instantly detect the probe position anywhere within the wide measurement area.

Probe Position Measurement: High-Accuracy Tracking Camera

Tilted to the left/Centered/Tilted to the right

The tracking camera tracks the probe to identify its position and orientation with high accuracy.

New Measurement Principle for High-Accuracy Over a Wide-Range

[High-accuracy] Repeatability: ±3 µm Reference Camera for High-Accuracy Vertical and Horizontal Rotation Measurement

The internal chart and camera are used for detecting motion, allowing for high-accuracy measurement of the vertical and horizontal rotation of the tracking camera.

[Wide-Area] Maximum Measurement Range: 2 m 6.6' Movable Camera for Stable Measurement Even for Large Targets

The camera can move up to 40 degrees to the left or right and up to 25 degrees up or down, enabling measurement over a wide area.
