KEY BENEFITS
Based on advanced head, sensor, controller and new Verisurf software techniques 5-axis CMM technology delivers unprecedented measuring speed and flexibility, while avoiding the speed versus accuracy compromises inherent to conventional techniques.
5-axis motion enables the stylus to follow a continuous path around complex components without having to leave the surface to change stylus cluster or index the head. Controller algorithms that synchronize CMM and head motion produce an optimal tip path and minimize CMM dynamic errors.
5-axis measurement technology achieves 15% to 50% cycle time savings.
Minimize the dynamic effects of CMM motion at high measurement speeds.
Ideal for complex 5-axis machined, mill turned or additive manufactured parts.
Up to 5 times faster to program and setup a 5-axis CMM.
Verisurf Unique Techniques
Verisurf adds new and unique measurement techniques improving the speed and accuracy of 5-axis enabled CMMs.
Standard Techniques
Verisurf supports all standard 5-axis probing techniques. You can use the same program for either PH20 or REVO.
Section Scanning Technique
Section scanning results in a single operation defined by a section through the CAD model. With 5-axis infinite positioning, the CMM moves around the part while the 5-axis head controls the contact position.
5-Axis Techniques for Aerospace
Aerospace parts are ideal for 5-axis CMMs powered by Verisurf. With complex surface profiles, precision fastener patterns and tight tolerances aerospace parts have thousands of holes, slots and pockets which is why moving the CMM structure less increases both speed and accuracy.

Verisurf Pocket Scanning
Pocket scanning used for rapid and automated inspection of isogrid and orthogrid structures that stiffen and save weight on aerospace panels and pressure vessels.
Verisurf Spiral Scanning
Spiral scanning enables CMM programmers to accurately and quickly, produce point clouds that cover the entire turbine blade or propellor surface.
5-Axis Techniques for Automotive
Helical scanning is applied to the valve guide bore and valve seat area while adaptive scanning allows a single scan command to cover the areas above and below the critical valve seat surfaces. Combined these 5-axis techniques dramatically increase throughput.

Infinite Positioning Benefits
Infinite positioning guarantees optimal feature access and minimizes stylus changes while automatic alignment to the part coordinate system avoids collisions and need for fixtures.
Calibration Time Savings
Fast “Inferred Calibration” technique determines the head orientation and probe position in a single operation, allowing subsequent measurement at any head angle.
