    Technology and Structure

    • Hexapod Design: The Equator-X 500 uses a rigid hexapod structure, with six linear motors that move the probe. This structure minimizes speed-related errors often found in traditional 3-axis CMMs.
    • Independent Frame System: The device features two independent frames: a drive frame and a metrology frame. This allows the drive frame to be optimized for high speed without compromising measurement performance.
    • Carbon Fiber Metrology Frame: The metrology frame is made of carbon fiber, a stiff and lightweight material that helps maintain accuracy at high speeds. The system also has temperature compensation capabilities through a thermal expansion model of the carbon fiber struts, allowing for stable operation in environments with temperatures ranging from +5°C to +50°C.

    "Two-in-One" Dual Measurement Modes

    The Equator–X™ 500 offers maximum flexibility thanks to its ability to operate in two different measurement modes:

    • Compare Mode: When used in this mode, the Equator-X 500 can achieve extremely fast scanning speeds, up to 500 mm/s, with a repeatability of ±2 µm. This mode is ideal for high-volume component production in mass-production factories, where productivity is the top priority and the environment has fluctuating temperatures.
    • Absolute Mode: This mode allows the device to scan and measure parts at speeds up to 250 mm/s. Absolute Mode is particularly useful for low-to-medium volume production or for products with many variations, as well as high inspection frequency.

    Exceptional Benefits

    • Superior Productivity: The extremely high scanning speed significantly increases inspection productivity, ensuring quality control keeps pace with machining speeds.
    • High Reliability: The system provides the ability to verify parts during production according to ISO 10360 standards, offering peace of mind as measurements are performed directly on the factory floor.
    • Flexibility: The ability to choose between two measurement methods on the same device allows users to select the optimal method for each specific application.

    With these features, the Equator–X™ 500 is not just a measurement tool but also an effective process control solution, helping manufacturers improve product quality and optimize their processes right on the production floor.
