CMM Moves

A CMM is not only an expensive piece of equipment, but also an awkward one to move, often weighing in at over 5000kg and over 3 metres tall. That’s why it’s super important to handle them with care to maintain their precision and performance. The huge task of moving your CMM is so important yet difficult, it makes sense to hire the professionals to make sure everything goes off without a hitch.

At Status Metrology we have cultivated our ‘CMM Moves’ process, so that we can safely and efficiently relocate all major brands of CMM’s, whether they’re bridges, romer arms, layout, or manual/automatic machines. After all, we have over 25 years, working with CMM machines and gathered all the expertise to be able to handle your Coordinate Measuring Machine Moves to the highest standard.

FAQs

A CMM move or relocation involves carefully dismantling, transporting, and reinstalling a coordinate measuring machine to ensure it maintains its accuracy and performance. The process includes specialist rigging, safe loading, secure transportation, controlled unloading, and full reinstallation with calibration. At Status we ensure the machine is handled correctly to avoid damage and minimise downtime.

CMM machines are highly sensitive and often weigh several tonnes, making them difficult and risky to move without specialist expertise. Status Metrology we ensure the equipment is handled using the correct lifting equipment, transport planning and installation procedures. This reduces the risk of damage, protects measurement accuracy and ensures the machine is fully operational after relocation.

The time required for a CMM relocation depends on the size, type and complexity of the machine, as well as the distance between locations. Most relocations involve multiple stages including preparation, transport and reinstallation with calibration. At Status Metrology, as an experienced provider we will plan the process carefully to ensure efficiency, minimise disruption and return the machine to full working condition as quickly as possible.
