Measurement service
Our Offering:
High-precision dimensional inspection
We provide high-precision dimensional inspection both in our accredited laboratories and directly in your production environment.
With stationary coordinate measuring machines (CMM), we achieve micrometre-level accuracy for demanding components.
Our portable CMM arms enable reliable 3D measurements even in challenging production conditions.
Stationary CMM in accredited laboratory
For maximum accuracy, we use our stationary CMM machines in accredited laboratories.
We measure components up to 1,000 × 1,000 × 1,000 mm with a measurement uncertainty of U = (5 + L / 250) μm, k = 2.
All measurements are performed in compliance with ISO/IEC 17025.
Touch-trigger probes ensure high accuracy and allow measurement of complex geometries that are difficult to reach with optical methods.
They also eliminate noise that can sometimes occur with optical measurements.
Portable CMM for on-site measurement
When you need fast and accurate results directly in your production facility, we use our portable CMM arms.
They are hand-operated and require no predefined measurement points, enabling flexible and efficient measurement.
Each CMM arm has a reach of 1.8 metres and a theoretical measuring sphere of 3.6 metres.
The measurement uncertainty is U = ± 0.086 mm, k = 2, ensuring reliable results even in demanding environments.
Reverse engineering
Our measurement services allow you to digitise and archive the geometry of critical components for future needs.
We can also create technical documentation when drawings are missing.
In collaboration with our experienced metallurgists, we can determine key material properties such as:
- Hardness
- Tensile strength
- Impact toughness
- Chemical composition
Certifications and Accreditations
Our laboratories are accredited by the national accreditation body in each country.

What is a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and what is it used for?
A coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is a device used to measure the geometric characteristics of an object.
It is used to verify and inspect the dimensions and tolerances of components, and can measure size, shape and position with high precision.
What types of objects can be measured with a coordinate measuring machine (CMM)?
A coordinate measuring machine (CMM) can measure a wide range of objects, from simple geometric shapes to more complex components.
Common examples include fixtures, prototypes, reference parts and production parts that require high accuracy in size and form.
What is the difference between a stationary and a portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM)?
A stationary coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is typically used in a laboratory or other controlled environment, offering the highest possible measurement accuracy. A portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is a mobile measuring arm that can be used directly on-site in production environments, providing flexible measurement capabilities.
What measurement uncertainty can I expect from a coordinate measuring machine (CMM)?
The measurement uncertainty for a stationary coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is typically
<strong>U = (5 + L / 250) μm, k = 2</strong>, while a portable CMM arm has a measurement uncertainty of <strong>U = ± 0.086 mm, k = 2</strong>. This ensures very high precision when measuring various components, depending on the application and location.
