Aberlink Extol – shop-floor CNC coordinate measuring machine
Applications
For quality inspection of critical parts next to machine tools, in production cells or inspection areas – the Extol is designed for reliable 24/7 operation. Five temperature sensors monitor machine and ambient conditions; the software compensates the measurements as if they had been taken at 20 °C and gives a warning if the temperature changes too quickly.
Key features
- Fully sealed recirculating crossed roller bearings – resistant to dirt
- Swiss DC motors and Deva motion control
- Smooth belt drives and precise linear bearings – long probes can be used
- Automatic tool offset correction and integration into automated cells
- Aberlink software – can be learned in one day
- Smallest footprint among shop-floor CMMs of similar size
- Industrial joystick as standard
