STRATO-Apex 3000G Series | High-accuracy Separate Guide Type MICROCORD STRATO-Apex Series | MITUTOYO

• The STRATO-Apex Series are CNC CMMs that use Mitutoyo's standard structure for large machines which are designed to be used for measuring large and heavy workpieces with high accuracy. The picture below gives a good idea of how large the machine is.
The measuring accuracy and drive speed are the world's highest in the X-axis measuring range of 2000 mm and 3000 mm.

• High-accuracy linear encoders (manufactured in-house) are built into the length measuring units used for position detection. Their excellent position detection capability is what makes the control of these high-accuracy devices possible. The series also applies a multitude of technologies regarding structure, control, component processing, assembly, and other aspects that enable large CMMs to deliver high-accuracy measurements.

• These series are equipped with a system to automatically restore accuracy deterioration (MOVAC) caused by foundation deformation as a standard feature.

• Equipped with a temperature compensation system that guarantees the specified accuracy within the wide range of 18 to 22 °C under certain environmental conditions, although high-accuracy CMMs should ideally be installed in a temperature controlled room.

• Safety devices such as a Z-axis beam sensor, tape switch, and area sensor are available as options.
