(AIMS: Dayton, OH) -- Pressure to increase production and minimize waste for increasingly complex parts is driving manufacturers to look for quality control processes that are faster and more accurate. To help companies meet tolerances and achieve repeatability, Advanced Industrial Measurement Systems (AIMS), an OEM of coordinate measuring machines, has introduced the Revolution Series HB Shop Floor CMM.

Designed and built around Renishaw 5-axis technology, the Revolution HB is the only mobile 5-axis CMM on the market.

“Speed is critical for manufacturers today,” says Gary Rockwell, director of marketing and product development for AIMS. “Parts are becoming more complex with tighter tolerances and customer lead times are shrinking. Part inspections can sometimes take two to three days using conventional methods. The Revolution HB is able to cut inspection time from days to minutes for many applications such as aerospace components. Best of all, manufacturers gain speed without sacrificing accuracy.”
