6 Axiom too HS
Rather than using the belt drive system, the Axiom too
HS incorporates drive rod technology developed on
our larger machines and vision products. This allows
even greater accelerations to be achieved meaning that
the HS model measures approximately 20% quicker
than the standard variant – ideal for high volume
measurement.

12 Probe Options
Every Aberlink CMM will fully support the range of probe heads and
both touch trigger and scanning probes supplied by Renishaw.
The following are common options:
TP8 Probe
The TP8 probe offers an entry level option for
customers that require infrequent indexing of the
probe and no indexing during the running of a
measurement programme. The TP8 is supplied
with two knuckle joints to allow infinite alignment of
the probe to the feature being measured, but this
alignment is non-repeatable, meaning that the stylus
will need to be requalified following each index. The
TP8 probe accepts the M3 range of styli.

Key Features
Aberlink’s camera system offers a non-contact facility on any Aberlink CMM. A clever
design of magnetic, kinematic joint allows the probe and camera to be swapped in
just seconds. This means that components can be inspected using both touch trigger
and vision inspection technology on the same machine.

Fixture Kit
The fixture kit and base plate provide a quick and reliable method for
mounting parts within the measurement volume of the CMM. Patent
pending T-slot and T-nut technology provides infinite adjustment of the
fixture components in multiple directions. Clamps, locators and supports
can be placed in exactly the right position to suit the part. Greater
flexibility results in less complicated designs, and so fixtures are easier to
assemble and can be completed in less time.
Fixture Template
Pack of 2 fixture templates that allow for simple positioning and spacing
of up to 8 components.
Air Dryer
SMC IDFA series refrigeration air dryer - to ensure a good quality of air
supply and maximise the performance and life of the CMM.
