The articulated arm coordinate measuring machine is also called "flexible coordinate measuring machine" or "portable coordinate measuring machine" (Portable CMM, or PCMM). It consists of three rigid body arms, six movable joints and a probe. Its basic functions are geometric feature detection and GD&T geometric tolerance detection.

• Measure the geometric features on the workpiece. And through projection and intersection, existing geometric features are fitted to generate new features.
• Quickly analyze spatial dimensions such as distances and angles between geometric features.
• The coordinate system can be customized through points, lines, and surfaces, and linear dimensions can be marked.

The measurement software provides GD&T tools to evaluate the form and position tolerances of geometric features. For example, verticality, parallelism, flatness, cylindricity, coaxiality, inclination, position, etc.

The software is compatible with multiple 3D data formats and provides multiple coordinate alignment methods. It can automatically compare measured geometric features and surface point data with theoretical values on the three-dimensional model, and provide error analysis graphic reports.

Test reports in PDF, Excel, and mht formats can be quickly output. The inspection report customization function is powerful, and the output report is convenient and fast, with pictures and texts.

Used for auto parts, motorcycle frames, pipe fitting measurement, robotic arm measurement, sheet metal manufacturing, material rack factory, teaching demonstration, etc.
