Comprehensive range of Renishaw probing options and accessories. Intuitive software ensures simple and fast results.

Manual or CNC Shop Floor CMM Axiom too... the complete inspection system. Fast, accurate and reliable, the Axiom too CMM comes in four different sizes with Y axis travel up to 1500mm. Available as either a manual machine or with full CNC control, the Axiom too can be used with touch trigger probe, continuous contact scanning probe or with Aberlink’s revolutionary non-contact camera system. The all aluminium bridge structure not only ensures that the Axiom too has low inertia and hence high acceleration to get the job done quickly, but also that the temperature of the machine rapidly follows...

0.1µm resolution scales fitted as standard.

High Spec CNC Shop Floor CMM Axiom too HS... better again. Since 2004 the Axiom too CMM has been providing manufacturing industry with a fast and accurate solution for their measurement problems.. but, as ever, Aberlink are continually striving to improve the solutions which we offer. The Axiom too HS is both faster and more accurate than the standard model, and all without compromising the fantastic value for money for which Aberlink have become renowned. Rather than using the belt drive system, the Axiom too HS incorporates drive rod technology developed on our larger machines and vision...

1000mm of X axis travel and 600mm or 800mm of measurement travel in Z.

High Speed, Medium Volume Shop Floor CNC CMM Zenith too... larger measurements are still affordable. There are a number of philosophies that Aberlink have adopted since it was founded in 1993 that have revolutionised the way that modern CMMs are now manufactured. Firstly the bridge of the machine is fabricated entirely from aluminium alloy. This has a number of advantages: the cost of machining is significantly lower than for machines made from granite, ceramic or other exotic materials. The aluminium is stress relieved to produce a highly stable structure and, with modern computing power,...

State of the art design ensures maximum stiffness for both greater speed and higher accuracy.

Rapid, High Accuracy Large Volume CMM Azimuth... from strength to strength As CMMs get larger, it is not simply a case of scaling up the design of smaller models. Stiffness of the structure is critical, but weight must also be kept to a minimum. The Azimuth CMM is not only Aberlink’s largest in their range of CMM products, but it is the culmination of over twenty years experience and excellence in the design and manufacture of innovative metrology equipment incorporating the very latest materials technology. The revolutionary bridge of the Azimuth incorporates aluminium honeycomb sheets...

Probe Options Every Aberlink CMM will fully support the range of probe heads and both touch trigger and scanning probes supplied by Renishaw. The following are common options: TP8 Probe The TP8 probe offers an entry level option for customers that require infrequent indexing of the probe and no indexing during the running of a measurement programme. The TP8 is supplied with two knuckle joints to allow infinite alignment of the probe to the feature being measured, but this alignment is non-repeatable, meaning that the stylus will need to be requalified following each index. The TP8 probe...

Probe and Probe Head Options Like the PH10T probe head, the PH10M is also a fully motorised probe head that offer immediate indexing from 0° to 105° in the A axis and through 360° in the B axis, in 7.5° increments. The M head, however, incorporates an autojoint with multiwire capability, which is necessary for the SP25M scanning probe. The PH10M probe head can also be fitted with either TP20 or TP200 probes and should be chosen in preference to the PH10T when using these probes if the future use of a scanning technology may be required. This head provides a fixed autojoint for when an SP25M...

Making Measurement Easy. The whole philosophy for Aberlink is to make measurement easy. Aberlink 3D software has been written by engineers for engineers and sets the industry standard for simple-to-use software. Designed around a graphical interface, Aberlink 3D can work in 2D or 3D, on manual or CNC CMMs and is equally at home when used with either touch, scanning or vision systems. It is easy to understand why Aberlink 3D has become the software of choice not only for Aberlink, but for numerous other manufacturers of measuring devices around the world. Aberlink 3D software is not only way...

Aberlink 3D software is revolutionary. As a component is measured a representation of it is built up on the screen. The user simply clicks on the measured features to call up dimensions exactly as they would appear on a drawing. Inspection reports can be in the form of fully dimensioned graphical representations as created on the screen, or tabulated reports in various formats that can show nominals, tolerances, errors, pass/fails, geometric tolerances etc. These reports can also be output to an Excel spreadsheet. Further reports are available to show the form of features (roundness,...
