INFINITE 2.0 Portable CMMs from ROMER

The INFINITE 2.0 portable CMM incorporates raise-the-bar features to enhance usability and expand work session productivity. The sleek, redesigned six-axis arms offer high precision probing and optional scanning capabilities for mobile measurement, inspection and reverse engineering on the shop floor or in the metrology lab. Available in measuring ranges of 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 12 feet, the 4 foot arm measures to ± 0.0006” in the Volumetric Length Accuracy Test.  Major advancements include TESA Kinematic Probes, a Smaller Ergonomic Wrist Design, an innovative SpinGrip and a new Probe Holster.

The INFINITE 2.0 portable CMMs offer the following exclusive features (see the Features page for complete details, and view the Video to see an INFINITE 2.0 in action):

• TESA Kinematic Probes with Swiss made Bridge CMM-class connectors provide carbon fiber construction with automatic probe recognition. 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.
• SpinGrip these infinite-rotating grips at elbow and forearm provide two “approved” grip positions for better ergonomics and do not allow the user to stress the arm during use.
• Six Axis Ergonomic Wrist is smaller and uses new tactile buttons. The new design includes an integrated USB camera to document work set-ups and an LED work-light.
• Probe Holster provides easy access and storage of Kinematic probes. Includes slots to snap-in 3 probes and the Kinematic key.
• Upgraded 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 2.0 arms have been upgraded from WIFI 802.11b to WIFI 802.11g, the standard for wireless device connectivity, which offers speeds many times faster and longer range (up to 200 ft – even through walls) than other technologies such as Bluetooth.
• 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 battery 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.
• Infinite Rotation – INFINITE series arms feature ROMER's patented infinite rotation of the principal axes. This allows inspection of hard-to-reach areas and avoids damaging the arm against rotational hard stops.
• Zero-G Counterbalance – the integrated 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.
• 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 unique quick-change mounting system requires no tools, allowing fast set-ups and providing a small footprint.  The arm can be attached to many types of bases (fixed, magnetic & vacuum mount), tripods and Brunson stands for INFINITE flexibility of mounting.
• Heidenhain Encoders – Heidenhain, the worlds leading manufacturer of high-accuracy rotary encoders, builds custom “wide-track” encodes designed specifically for INFINITE 2.0 arms.
