The Phoenix is made for harsh environments, with well-placed covers that prevent temperature shock. Its steel measuring scales on metal structures assure uniform expansion. The Phoenix CMM incorporates all the time-proven features of its “big brother”, the Microstar: hardened precision-ground ways, dual beam bridge with reliable V-and-Flat bearing arrangement and intrinsic accuracy.


The Design of our 1M Series incorporates a hybrid bearing system with a combination of mechanical and air bearing, each utilized to take advantage of optimum performance characteristics.

Axium

Axium was developed in cooperation with a major auto manufacturer for automatic line-side gaging of crankshafts with 4-axis capability. The system is hardened for use in production, and requires minimal training for non-metrology production staff. It can be configured as a 3-axis system (less rotary axis) to fit your manufacturing needs and can provide precise, automatic dimensional measurement of cylindrical/ shaft-like parts.

Our Microstar series of CMMs covers a wider size range from 20” x 30” x 18” to 50” x 80” x 25” and are versatile units for the lab or in the shop. The ways, mechanical bearings, scales and motors are shielded or guarded against harsh environments. All are available with a range of probe systems and software choices.
