Faro on mission to find Europe’s oldest working FaroArm

1 min read

Faro is launching a European quest to find the oldest working FaroArm. The company introduced its first device with hinged-arm measurement technology approximately 35 years ago, while the first articulating measurement FaroArm intended for the industrial market dates back to the early 1990s.

In addition to accuracy and ease of use, Faro says that its 3D measurement technology is renowned for its reliability, robustness and durability. These characteristics have ensured that many of the company’s early FaroArms remain in regular use throughout Europe.

When the oldest functional FaroArm is found, the owner will be able to swap it for the current and most advanced 8-axis Faro ScanArm system with CAM2 software, completely free of charge.

To participate, FaroArm owners will need to register at a dedicated web page, here.

Details required include contact details, an image of the FaroArm in its working environment and its serial number. The competition is open to all European Faro customers that have purchased their FaroArm from a Faro representative or one of Faro’s official partners or distributors. Entries close on 15 April. The winner of the prize will be announced at the Faro stand at the Control 2020 exhibition, which takes place in Stuttgart during May 2020.
