(AIMS Metrology: Dayton Ohio) -- AIMS Metrology, a Dayton, Ohio-based OEM for coordinate measuring machines, announced today it has raised the bar for shop floor CMMs with its introduction of the new Summit 10.10.10. Engineered with a 5-axis REVO-2 dynamic scanning probe and 1 meter cubed capacity, the Summit gives a diverse range of industries—including automotive, aerospace and medical companies—the capacity to handle high volume, large parts inspection. The new CMM can be automated with a robot load/unload system or pass through process with a conveyor. The Summit has already been adopted by Honda Transmission Manufacturing of America Inc.

In 2015 AIMS entered the job shop space with the Revolution Series HB, the industry's only 5-axis mobile CMM with a PH20 touch trigger indexing head. The Summit, a stationary model, provides the industry's largest workpiece weight of 2,200 kg while preserving valuable floor space. "The Summit is a game changer for manufacturers," says AIMS Vice President Mark Gearding. "Its' development was prompted by customer requests for large inspection capacity enhanced with REVO-2's latest sensors such as RVP vision and SFP2 surface measurement."
