Portable Measuring Arms Provide Freedom

Feb. 27, 2020
For the first time, LK Metrology is diversifying into the supply of 3D articulating arm metrology systems with the launch of a range of 24 portable measuring arms called FREEDOM.

There is a 6-axis model for touch probing and a 7-axis version for multi-sensor metrology including laser scanning. Both are available in two accuracy levels and the four products come in six sizes with a reach of up to5 m (196.85 in.).

The two 6-axis arms for tactile inspection are named FREEDOM classic and FREEDOM select, the former being the entry-level model and the latter the enhanced accuracy version which is supplied with a calibration bar. The addition of an extra degree of freedom provides infinite movement and enables laser scanning with a Nikon Metrology ModelMaker H120, MMDx100 or MMDx200. These 7-axis arms, again in two accuracy versions, are called FREEDOM classic scan and FREEDOM select scan. The touch probing accuracy of all FREEDOM arms is certified to ISO 10360-12 before delivery and may be supplied with a variety of aluminum and carbon fiber probe kits, styli, mounting rings including some with a magnetic or vacuum base, tripods, rolling stands, and carts with a granite top.
