Faro Technologies, leader in the market of portable measurement arms assisted by computer and laser tracker, announces the launch of the FaroArm Quantum, the first arm of 2.4 meters in diameter measurement with an uncertainty of 0.0007 "(0.018mm);" equivalent to one-fifth of the thickness of a human hair.
Available in workloads of 2.4 meters and in six or seven axes models, FaroArm Quantum offers a precision comparable to the CMM fixed, you have a software that is fully programmable for repetitive measurements, need less space on the floor, and conducts inspections in a more efficient way.
As with its predecessor, the FaroArm Platinum, users simply guide the transducer (touch probe) arm along the surface of the object to be measured. At the same time, the laptop of the Quantum illustrates the measurements in 3-D on the screen and records all the data. Creates a "blueprint" (project) in 3-D a piece or the components of a machine, transforming into a complete portable tool to carry out inspections, certification of tools/parts, analysis of reverse engineering or design CAD (CAD-to-Part).
The Quantum represents the latest generation of the FaroArm product of the company line and continues beating models of competition in all categories. The new design includes:
- 30 Percent more accuracy: is the first arm of portable measurement of 2.4 meters certified with a precision of 0.0007 "(0. 018 mm)
- Wireless communication Bluetooth r: inspects and scans at a distance up to 10 meters, even through walls
- The exclusive Faro i-Probe: individually serialized with automatic recognition of size and built-in Probe temperature sensor
- Auto-Sleep mode: automatically turns off the drive to save energy and prolong the life of the components
- Universal quick support: adds flexibility in support while reducing Assembly time
- Ergonomic handle: improves ease of use, comfort, and the effectiveness of the measurements
