Fusion FaroArm Blends Higher Accuracy with Lower Cost

By DE Editors

FARO Technologies, Inc. (Lake Mary, FL), maker of portable computer-aided measurement arms and laser trackers, announced the release of the Fusion FaroArm.

The new device blends styling cues of the Quantum FaroArm, but with a lower price and up to 15-percent higher accuracy than the Titanium Series it replaces, states the press release.

The portable coordinate measurement machine (CMM) combines accuracy, durability, technology, lightweight and cost-effectiveness for manufacturers who want in-process measurement, reverse-engineering capabilities, and the ergonomics of the company’s flagship Platinum FaroArm.

To operate, users guide the Arm’s touch-probe along the surface of the object to be measured. The Fusion’s laptop computer simultaneously illustrates the 3D measurements onscreen and records all of the data. It creates a 3D “blueprint” of a part or machine components, making it an all-in-one portable tool for performing inspections, tool certification, CAD-to-Part analysis, or reverse engineering.
