Faro Arm

Mobile measurement technique: These buzzwords gain further significance in times of continuously increasing product quality requirements. Being able to inspect in situ brings various

advantages: The logistical effort of moving large and heavy parts to a measuring area is removed.

It is important to know that using portable measurement equipment today does not mean that there have to be compromises in terms of accuracy. Mobile measurement equipment from FARO is often more accurate than conventional CMMs. Combining the advantages of portable measurement with the accuracy you can achieve with the Faro Gage, the decision is easy to make. Improvement in quality, reduction in costs and increased efficiency: These are the benefits Faro customers can expect.

The flexibiliy of the Faro Arm is enabled through 6 or 7 joints that allow endless rotation of the major axis. At the grip you find a probe, that could be compared to a forefinger. To measure a point the probe is placed on the measurement position.

Highly accurate shaft encoders allow the arm to compute the position of the probe at any time in 3D space. So the Faro Arm works like the human arm, but with more precision and greater flexiblity.
Measurements can be made in a variety of locations with the help of various mounting options for example magnetic or vacuum mounts. Even if there is no mains voltage, the Faro Arm offers an integrated battery capable of powering the arm for hours.

The applications of the Faro arm pertaining to the Automotive, Aerospace, Consumer Goods, Tooling, Medical, Electronics industries etc.,
