Renishaw to Feature XM-600 Laser Measurement System at IMTS 2018

Using technology developed for the XM-60 multi-axis calibrator, the newly launched XM-600 offers enhanced capability to connect directly with Renishaws range of universal CMM controllers (UCC). This enables faster and easier error mapping, measuring all six degrees of freedom from a single set-up, in any orientation for linear axes.

West Dundee, IL - August 7, 2018 - Renishaw, a precision engineering and manufacturing technologies company, will feature the XM-600 laser measurement system at IMTS 2018 on September 10 - 15 in Chicago.

Using technology developed for the XM-60 multi-axis calibrator, the newly launched XM-600 offers enhanced capability to connect directly with Renishaws range of universal CMM controllers (UCC). This enables faster and easier error mapping, measuring all six degrees of freedom from a single set-up, in any orientation for linear axes.
The XM-600 communicates easily with Renishaw UCC software during the calibration routine to quickly build a complete error map of the CMM. This functionality is supported by UCCsuite V5.4 and higher, enabling the map of a CMM within half a day.
Since it maintains the same compatibility with CARTO software as the XM-60, the XM-600 is the ideal calibration solution for any manufacturing facility that utilizes both machine tools and CMMs.

Featured Product

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

Model TR1 Tru-Trac

The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
