AIMS Metrology demonstrates its multisensor inspection capabilities with its range of turnkey five-axis CMMs. In addition to its Revolution Series five-axis HB and LM CMMs, visitors will be able to see an AIMS addition in flexible measuring systems — the Itaca FlexGauge.

The Itaca FlexGauge is well suited for applications that require tactile scanning for small, high-precision parts. AIMS’ lab-grade LM offers multisensor capabilities with Revo-2, which can provide measuring speeds up to 500 mm/second and data collection rates of up to 4,000 points per second for increased part throughput. The mobile HB, fitted with a five-axis PH20, can be placed on or near a production line to provide dimensional verification and process flow monitoring in real time. Other demonstrations include the SP25M, a compact, versatile scanning probe system. Its compact size (25-mm in diameter) can support a range of scanning and touch-trigger modules. Its slim profile and autojoint mounting are said to make it well suited for use on the PH10M probe head. AIMS is also showcasing a fully retrofitted machine, equipped with the SP25 and a CMM Vision Probe to demonstrate its capacity for multisensor inspection on the same system.

“We have an in-house service group and application team that allows us to customize the right measurement and inspection solution to a job shop or manufacturer’s needs,” says Thomas Ayers, sales and business development director (Southeast) for AIMS. “That includes programming, custom holding fixtures, tooling, automation, service and support. With the current economy, labor shortages and lead times for new and leased equipment continuing to grow, companies need versatile options. They also need a service provider they can depend on.”
