The TESA MICRO-HITE® 3D coordinate measuring system is an affordable high accuracy measuring instrument designed to fill the operational gap between precision hand-held measuring instruments and high end coordinate measuring machines. To assure its high production standards, this advanced measuring system is produced at the TESA factory in Renens, Switzerland in a dedicated manufacturing cell.
Interactive TESA REFLEXTM software allows operators of all skill levels to perform complex inspection routines quickly and efficiently with little training. The offset triangular bridge design provides a low center of gravity and optimum stiffness-to-mass ratio. Air bearings ensure frictionless motion in all three axis.
The TESA MICRO-HITE 3D coordinate measuring system features a light alloy base fitted with a granite measuring table. It is constructed from materials that have a similar coefficient of expansion to offset the effects of changes in ambient temperature conditions, making it equally suitable for the shop floor and the inspection laboratory.
All operations are controlled through an ergonomically positioned operator interface panel. The patented ZmouseTM provides instant control of the measuring system from anywhere in the work envelope.
The TESA MICRO-HITE 3D coordinate measuring system comes equipped with either of two TESA 3D probes—the TESASTAR® Touch Trigger Probe or the TESASTAR-i® Indexable Probe. This competitively priced three-axis measuring system is designed to fit any shop budget, and offers sophisticated measurement and inspection capability for any type of manufacturing operation.
