HandyPROBE

Unrivaled portability, accuracy, and simplicity

To put it simply, the HandyPROBE is a portable CMM that has a special probe tip that can be swapped out to meet the needs of your specific project. It can be used in junction with a C-track camera system to probe massive parts without losing any quality or resolution on the scan.

In general, you’ll use the HandyPROBE in junction with another 3D scanner that we offer. This probe will identify primitive features, internal components, or any feature that is missed after a standard 3D scan. 

The HandyPROBE requires no previous CMM experience to use, and it’s incredibly intuitive — just probe and click. It’s battery-powered so you don’t have to worry about managing long cables, and it can handle parts of various sizes directly on the shop or production floor.

Features and Benefits

CMM, Simplified

As a mobile unit, you can rely on the HandyPROBE to quickly and simply measure parts on the shop floor and accelerate production.

  • No rigid setup required. You can freely move the probe to measure large parts without the added hassle of using traditional CMM.
  • Enjoy automatic alignments. There is no downtime associated with realigning parts or setting up a new scanning system. Use the optical reflectors and camera system to continue probing freely. ‍
  • Incredibly user-friendly. You can use the HandyPROBE with no experience or previous training. The design is incredibly user-friendly, and you’ll learn the full process within minutes.

Incredible Accuracy

The HandyPROBE offers metrology-grade accuracy without the need for a rigid setup. You can unlock repeatable, accurate, and high-precision measurements right on your production or shop floor. This tool’s overall accuracy is 0.025mm or 0.0009in with a traceable certificate (compliant with ISO 10360-12 and accredited with ISO 17025). 

  • Referencing without compromise. You can probe a full part regardless of your shop floor’s condition. No need to use perfectly flat surfaces in a clean environment.
  • Measure big parts with great accuracy. This tool can handle parts up to 20 feet in size without sacrificing on accuracy. This is great for expediting 3D-printed parts. ‍
  • The accuracy doesn’t degrade over time. Thanks to the simplicity and versatility of the HandyPROBE, the accuracy won’t drift or degrade over time. There are quick field calibrations that you can perform to dial in your accuracy within minutes.

Unrivaled Adaptability

With no physical link between the HandyPROBE and other CMM hardware, you can easily bring this probe to the most remote job site without any additional accommodations.

  • Inspection system without arms. Traditional CMM setups include rigid arms that restrict how you can use the probe. But, the HandyPROBE untethers the probe to allow for unprecedented motion.
  • Easy to travel with. Believe it or not, the HandyPROBE and all of the necessary accessories fit into a single portable case. This makes traveling with this probe unbelievably easy.‍
  • Part geometry doesn’t matter. With this design, you can use the HandyPROBE on parts, regardless of their geometry. They don’t need to fit within a certain envelope to be accurately measured with this metrology-grade CMM probe.
