(Hexagon Metrology: North Kingstown, RI) -- Hexagon Metrology introduces the new TESA MH3D-DUAL coordinate measuring machine (CMM) in booth 702 at the Aerodef Manufacturing Expo, Feb. 25–27, 2014, in Long Beach, California.

The MH3D-DUAL CMM offers a unique-to-the-market combination of manual and automatic measurement functionality for increased flexibility on the shop floor or in the quality laboratory. The patented, multipurpose CMM is easy to learn and simple to operate, making it accessible to new and existing users of CMM technology.

A major feature of the MH3D-DUAL system is its fast, flexible TESA-REFLEX Dual data management software with seven measuring options: points, lines, circles, planes, cones, spheres, and cylinders. The system’s built-in function for automatic feature recognition assists the operator by suggesting the best solution to measure a small or large series of parts. The software also automatically displays the characteristics linked to measured features. Nonspecialists become familiar with the software in just a few hours. The system offers guaranteed compatibility with Q-DAS and other standard formats. Measured data results can be quickly exported into a PDF file and printed for further analysis.
