Romer 77 Series Absolute Arm from Hexagon is “most accurate ever”

Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence has unveiled a top-of-the-range addition to its series of Romer Absolute Arm portable CMMs. The 77 Series offers around 20% better scanning accuracy and 15% better touch-probe measurement accuracy than the existing 75 Series of Romer Absolute Arm.

Available in five sizes from 2.5 to 4.5 m measuring volume, the 77 Series can be switched on and used immediately, without any warm-up or referencing, while probe changes can be made without recalibration. Acoustic and haptic operator feedback supports use in harsh shopfloor environments, while a 3,000 N magnetic base is supplied as standard.

The Romer 77 Series is compatible with all Hexagon laser scanners, including the HP-L-20.8 and HP-L-8.9 external units, and the RS3 integrated scanner. All arms are available in 6- and 7-axis configurations, with 6-axis models suitable for touch-probe measurement and the 7-axis design aimed at high speed laser scanning.
