Actiris 350 - High Performance Optical Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM)
Posted in Controller, Access ControlOn Monday, June 23, 2008
Actiris is a high performance optical Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) that delivers fast and effective 3D inspection capabilities for use in the manufacturing spectrum, including metallurgy, machine tool production, automotive and transport equipment production sector. By using optical photogrammetry technology in Automotive and Aerospace industries, Actiris350 has substantial advantages in accuracy and measuring capabilities over traditional portable CMM systems.

Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) - Artiris 350
Actiris 350 - Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine has a large and practical operating range suitable for components up to 6m, using a highly ergonomic connection-free stylus probe weighing only 500g. The Actiris portable CMM is easy to set up, auto-calibrated and ready to use in less than 30 minutes virtually anywhere. The systems optical technology delivers a fully automated light-weight portable CMM measurement process that does not rely on ultra-precision bearings or physical linkages for its long term accuracy, and that has low sensitivity to thermal expansion in uncontrolled environments.
Actiris 350 Portable CMM delivers forceful measurement capabilities with single point accuracy of +/- 0.015mm and a high level of dependability of results through its continuous real-time monitoring of the actual position of part datums during measurement. It’s unique Dynamic Referential feature allows parts to be measured without being fixed down, avoiding complicated fixturing or any special mounting of the system, and enables this unique portable CMM to inspect the component in a single setup without the complication or errors of leapfrogged datums, delivering reduced inspection times and eliminating datum referencing errors. For engineering applications, parts that are moving or deflected under load are able to be measured without loss of accuracy.

The system’s CAD Model Based Inspection capabilities incorporate full surface measurement functionality and automated graphical inspection reporting, allowing extensive general metrology needs to be met. By simply triggering the measurement probe on the part feature the system will display the actual surface deviation.
Actiris 350 - Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine’s Features :
- Unobstructed measuring range to 6m without leapfrogging, re-referencing or loss of accuracy.
- Light and ergonomic connection free stylus probe.
- Direct non-contact surface measurement capability.
- Low sensitivity to temperature variations.
- System contains no encoders or other moving parts
- Part movement or base movement during inspection does not affect accuracy!
- Fast setup anywhere on a lightweight carbon fibre tripod.
- Traceable full volumetric recalibration by operator in less than 5 minutes.
- Simultaneously track and log positions of up to 50 points in real time.

Cordless Measurement, 100% Portability
The 100% portability of Actiris350 renders traditional arms, hand tools and other portable inspection equipment obsolete.Anyone, anywhere can now inspect, reverse engineer or perform CAD-to-Part-analysis on parts, sub-units or complex assemblies with an unequalled, mobility and flexibility.
Automatic Alignment Setup & Dynamic Reference Frame
Actiris350 offers the user 2 types of alignment setup: a manual one and an automatic one with no probing, which reduces human errors. Both the sensor and the part can be moved during the measurement process without any need to re-align after each move, for a greater flexibility and time saving.
Measurement Range Volume Extension
To dynamically extend the measurement volume is now possible without any additional alignment setup. Actiris350 can be repositioned along the part to be measured (or the part may be translated) with automatic and continuous capture of the measurement reference frame. No probing is necessary to re-establish datums after the part or the unit is moved.
Self-monitoring Calibration
Calibration parameters are continuously under surveillance allowing the system to itself identity when a calibration is necessary. The two minutes calibration process can be easily performed by the operator. The yearly return of the unit to factory for calibration is simply not required. traceability is established with a calibration bar that may be recertified by local facilities.
