Features and Benefits of the HandyPROBE portable CMM

Higher measurement accuracy: Creaform’s TRUaccuracy™ technology ensures highly-accurate measurements, regardless of the measurement environment (instability, vibrations, thermal variation, etc.) or operator skills.

  • With the dynamic referencing mode of the C-Track, the coordinate system can be literally “locked” onto the part(s) being measured, thus maintaining part alignment during the entire scanning process.
  • With the automatic alignment function, manual operation is no longer needed during the alignment phase and root cause errors are drastically reduced.
  • With the fast user calibration process using a certified gauge, the MetraSCAN delivers constant accuracy during its entire life cycle.
  • With the continuous monitoring of parameters (temperature, accuracy, etc.), constant accuracy is ensured during the entire useful life of products.
TRUaccuracy

Faster and easier measurement: Handheld, armless device and wireless data transmission process that allow the user to move freely around the part. Automatic alignment with optical reflectors allowing to probe many identical parts in rapid succession. Lightweight (1 lb), it can be used during extended periods of time without causing musculo-skeletal problems.

Greater, extendable measurement volume: Compared to other portable CMM systems, the HandyPROBE offers a greater basic measurement volume. Plus, this volume can be easily and dynamically extended with no loss in accuracy - and without any conventional leapfrog or additional alignment set-up involved. No need for the operator to re-align the data after moving the part or the C-Track, which leads in less set-ups and error accumulation.

Truly portable device: The portability of the HandyPROBE makes it possible to inspect or reverse engineer parts, sub-units or complex assemblies with unequalled precision, mobility and flexibility - no matter where (lab, factory, off-site, etc.).

User friendly: Easy to learn, intuitive system with a very short learning curve – you can keep using the same metrology software and probing techniques! Installation in less than 5 minutes. Allows the measurement of parts in production without having to align every part.

Excellent ROI: Yields considerable productivity and money gains in the field of industrial coordinate measurements and controls. Measurement errors can be reduced by up to 75%, and control time by a factor of 10.
