Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) are important devices for ensuring the geometry of a part matches the specifications of the original design file. By using high-precision CMM products, you can refine your production processes to operate within tight tolerances, reduce errors, and streamline production for faster output without compromising on quality. AIMS offers the following Renishaw CMM products:
We offer a range of surface probes, vision probes, scanning probes, and probe heads for the REVO 5-Axis measurement system. These probes and heads provide high system accuracy, minimize dynamic effects, and offer high measurement speeds. Probes are powered by 5-Axis measurement technology for enhancing flexibility and precision.

Renishaw PH20 5-Axis Touch-Trigger System
The PH20 5-Axis probe system utilizes infinite positioning head motion technology to minimize dynamic errors of the CMM at higher measurement speeds and with improved accuracy and repeatability. It features 5-axis simultaneous motion, and it's unique “head touches” allow measurements to be taken by only moving the head, rather than the entire CMM structure.

Renishaw 3-Axis Probe Heads
We offer the complete selection of Renishaw probe heads, including:
- PH10 PLUS Head Family. The PH10 PLUS head family increases throughput by offering program-controlled re-orientation. These heads provide access to hard-to-reach part features, enabling inspection at different angles without stylus cluster changes.
- PH6 Fixed Head. These fixed heads are compatible with multiple different probes and adapters for complete control of the measurement and inspection process.
- MH20 Manual Head. This manually adjustable probe head features a compact design, an infinitely adjustable orientation, and is pre-fitted with customer-specific shanks to suit various needs.
- MH20i Manual Head. This manual indexing probe head enables flexible stylus changing and repeatable probe re-orientation. With repeatable indexing positions, the MH20i offers maximum flexibility and enhances productivity for multi-orientation measurement applications.
- MH8 Manual Head. This compact head is built for use with small CMM units and pairs well with manual operations.
- MIH Manual Head. This versatile manual indexing probe head features an integral LCD display for easy programming of probe orientation positions. Its auto joint probe mount also allows for fast and repeatable probe changing.

Renishaw 3-Axis Scanning Probes
Scanning probes can acquire several hundred surface points each second, enabling measurement of form as well as size and position.
While touch-trigger probes gather discrete points on the surface, scanning systems acquire vast quantities of surface data, providing a clearer picture of the form and shape of the workpiece. Scanning is therefore ideal for measurement applications where the form of a feature is a significant element of the overall error budget, or where complex surfaces must be inspected.
A range of solutions is available, suitable for all sizes and configurations of CMM.

Renishaw Touch Probes
Our range of touch probes includes kinematic and sensor-based touch-trigger probes. These probes are compatible with a range of stylus lengths, and each type offers high accuracy, minimal vibration, and high repeatability.

Renishaw Styli
Styli from Renishaw are some of the most accurate in the market. These styli feature balls bonded to the stems to eliminate wiggle room, preventing distortions and measurement errors. The balls are constructed of synthetic ruby, offer high resistance to mechanical corrosion, and have good strength under compression.

Renishaw Equator Gauging Systems
AIMS can provide complete turnkey packages utilizing the Renishaw Equator system. This gauging system offers speed, repeatability, and simple operation for automatic or manual applications. Manufacturers can use the Equator to inspect parts, provide real-time gauging data, and reduce the risk of error and scrapped parts. Manufacturers who invest in a Renishaw Equator see a rapid return on investment, as this system greatly increases throughput, reduces labor costs, and eliminates the need for expensive rework of custom gauges.
