The Hexagon Metrology Special Systems Group (SSG) is a dedicated team within Hexagon Metrology that does design, system integration and project management for custom and semi-custom integrations of coordinate metrology products with other manufacturing technology. The productivity enhancements possible from CMM technology can be increased with integration within a manufacturing cell or with other systems, all designed to work together. Here, a Brown & Sharpe Global CMM is integrated into a system designed for automated part loading and unloading.
Integration of the Leica T-MAC Tracker-Machine wireless control sensor on an industrial robot with a Leica Laser Tracker, in an automatic alignment/assembly application.
The T-Mac can be mounted on moving robots, machines, or parts whose positions need to be monitored in 6DoF (degrees of freedom) space. In this case, the 3-D alignment of one part to another is accomplished with the robot, with the T-Mac/Tracker combination providing real-time positional feedback and robot guidance.

Integration of the Leica T-Scan handheld laser scanner with an industrial robot, using the Leica T-MAC Tracker-Machine wireless control sensor and a Leica Laser Tracker. The T-Mac can be mounted on moving robots, machines, or parts whose position(s) need to be monitored in 6DoF (Degrees of Freedom) space. This innovative measurement device was developed in response to the need for automation of tracking tasks where it is difficult, impossible or undesirable to have a human being holding a Leica T-product device like the T-Probe or T-Scan.
The Cordax Discovery CMM from Sheffield Measurement has been adopted by hundreds of manufacturers around the world over the last decade and is the original shop floor CMM. Discovery III is the next evolution of inspection at the point of manufacture and builds upon its predecessor’s many successes, featuring improved accuracy, extended thermal performance, and a modern updated industrial design.
The TORO automatic horizontal arm CMM has been designed and value-engineered to ensure accuracy, reliability and ease of use in all stages of operation, as well as maximum safety for the operator. TORO is the ideal measuring tool for the dimensional inspection of large thin-walled parts such as automobile sheet metal components, sub-assemblies and full bodies, automobile glass and molded plastic parts, as well as the automatic verification of many types of prismatic parts.
DEA is a brand of Hexagon Metrology.
