Linear Motor-Driven and Mobile Shop Floor CMMs



AIMS Metrology will feature coordinate measuring machines (CMM) engineered to raise throughput and reduce operation costs while maintaining submicron accuracy at IMTS 2016. The OEM manufactures, assembles and ships its machines from its Dayton, OH, facility and provides service support. AIMS will demonstrate its Revolution LM series that employs linear motors with a Renishaw REVO 5-axis scanning system. AIMS also recently introduced its Revolution Series HB Shop Floor CMMs. The Revolution HB is designed and built around Renishaw 5-axis technology. Both models are built for the needs of the automotive, aerospace and medical markets.

"Unlike conventional machines with belts and pulleys, we chose to design our LM model with linear motors," said AIMS Co-owner Mark Gearding. "For manufacturers who need a laboratory grade CMM, it means virtually no maintenance, less downtime and a positioning accuracy in the submicron range."

"Because the Revolution Series HB brings 5-axis measuring capability to the production floor, it can cut inspection time from days to minutes," said a company spokesperson. AIMS engineers will also be available to talk about the OEM's aftermarket support program and retrofit services along with Renishaw MODUS software.
