NEW TESA Kinematic Probes with Swiss made Bridge CMM-class multiwire connecting joints combine carbon fiber construction with automatic probe recognition. The same style of kinematic joint is used in the TESAStar-M motorized CMM probe head for Bridge CMMs such as the Brown & Sharpe Global. When changing probes, Kinematic probes save time by automatically identifying themselves to the software and by not requiring re-calibration. If you need to replace a tip, the probe can be easily re-calibrated in the field. ROMER's Kinematic probes are truly "plug and measure".

NEW SpinGrip. The infinite-rotating grips at elbow and forearm provide two low friction grip positions for better ergonomics. The SpinGrip allows the CMM to float in the operator's hands, maximizing accuracy and minimizing operator fatigue. |
 |
NEW Six Axis Ergonomic Wrist is smaller, easy to grasp, and uses new tactile buttons. The buttons are programmable for custom functions and also operates as a three-button mouse when the arm is in mouse mode. The new design includes an integrated digital camera to document work set-ups and an LED work-light. |
 |
NEW Probe Holster provides easy access and storage of the kinematic carbon-fiber probes. Includes slots to snap-in 3 probes and the change key, keeping your spare probes within easy reach at all times. Since the holster rotates with the base tube, the probes are always opposite the moving joints of the arm and out of the way.

Improved Wi-Fi Wireless Connectivity -
the Wi-Fi connection between the arm and computer allows the operator
to position the computer where it is most convenient without having to
worry about PC cables (or any cables, for that matter, thanks to the
Li-ION battery). INFINITE arms feature WIFI 802.11g, the standard for
wireless device connectivity, which offers speeds up to 54 Mbps and a
range of up to 200 feet, even through walls. This speed and range is
many times faster and longer than other technologies such as Bluetooth,
allowing great flexibility when positioning the computer system. Some
ROMER GridLOK
users locate the application computer in another room entirely and use
large plasmas screens for operator interaction with the application
software. |
 |
Improved Zero-G Counterbalance -
the integrated pneumatic Zero-G counterbalance offsets the weight of
the arm and probe, thereby reducing operator fatigue and allowing
one-handed operation from any position. The counterbalance works
equally well from any position in the arm's reach, above and below the
midline, without any tendency for the arm to "flop" when used high or
low. The counterbalance helps protect the arm from unintended crashes
with table or part. |
 |
Improved 7 Axis Laser Scanning - To
accommodate laser scanning heads, a 7 axis version of the Infinite 2.0
is also available. The all-new handle design features an ergonomic
shape and "soft-touch" tactile plastic material for operator comfort. Two different laser heads are available, the ScanShark V4ix (pictured) scans at 23,000 points per second, and thanks to the TESA Kinematic Joint, the ScanShark V4ix is hardware interchageable with a bridge CMM such as a Brown & Sharpe Global, so you can buy one laser scanning head and use it on two different types of equipment (additional accessories and software options required). The premium V5 scanner scans more than 458,000 points per second for digitizing large areas quickly. For more information on 7 axis systems, visit the INFINITE 2.0 7 axis product page .

Infinite Rotation - INFINITE series arms feature ROMER's patented infinite rotation of the three principal axes. This allows inspection of hard-to-reach areas and avoids damaging the arm against rotational hard stops. |
 |
Integrated Li-ION Battery and Environmentally Sealed Cover - the integrated Li-ION battery is ideal for on-site inspection or measurement when AC power is not available or where cables are a problem. Several hours of batterly life are typical with continuous operation. The patent-pending environmentally sealed battery cover prevents contamination of the battery compartment and accidental dislodging of the battery. Cover removed for illustration purposes.

|
 |
Calibrated Length Standard - ROMER provides a NIST-traceable calibrated length standard with each arm to allow the operator to easily verify and document system performance for ISO or vendor requirements.
|
 |
Carbon Fiber Arms - all ROMER arm tubes are constructed of carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is 25 times more thermally stable than aluminum, thereby ensuring temperature stability in real-world use and rendering temperature compensation unnecessary. Under normal usage the carbon fiber tubes have a lifetime warranty.
|
 |
Quick Mounting - a quick-change toolless mounting system requires no tools, allowing fast set-ups and providing a small footprint. The arm can be attached to many types of bases, including: fixed, magnetic (illustrated here) and vacuum mount. Tripods and Brunson stands are also available for INFINITE flexibility of mounting.

 |
Heidenhain Encoders - Heidenhain, the world's leading manufacturer of high-accuracy rotary encoders, builds custom "wide-track" encodes designed specifically for INFINITE 2.0 arms.
|
 |
Ultra Lightweight and Portable - thanks to their advanced carbon fiber and aluminum construction, INFINITE arms are lightweight, typically less than 20 pounds, making them ideal for shop floor inspection, measurement and reverse engineering. An arm in it's rolling travel case weighs approximately 50 lbs. making it easy to transport from one job site to another. The case fits in cargo area of the average station wagon or SUV.
|
 |
Magnetic Base - INFINITE arms include a magnetic base as standard equipment. This design provides exceptional rigidity and versatility.
|
 |
PC-DMIS Portable - Hexagon Metrology's flagship software in a special version for ROMER arms, is customized for portable use, featuring "all in one screen" layouts, available autofeatures that lets the software "guess" what you are measuring without the operator telling it, and available offline licenses, which allows one person to use the arm in the field, and a second on a different computer to program guided inspection routines for the arm (using a CAD model) or create reports and analyze data from previous inspection jobs. Of course, all our existing software choices are also available on the Infinite 2.0. |
