AMS CMM Probing Products


Although we are manufacturer of new Measuring systems but our main focus will be always giving the customer the best value for the money. If the customer has an existing CMM, still in good mechanical shape and the size is enough to cover the customer measuring needs then we will recommend the retrofit of the existing CMM rather than buying new one.


– PH20 –


A dramatic impact on inspection timescales, capability and flexibility

  • PH20 brings 5-axis measurement capability to touch-trigger applications on all sizes of CMM
  • Increased throughput – up to 3x faster than indexing heads:
    • Unique ‘head touches’ allow measurement points to be taken using only the head and not the CMM structure
    • 5-axis controlled motion between features eliminates indexing time
    • Together, these speed increases result in a typical 3-fold improvement in throughput

  • Easy access to features at any angle with infinite positioning:
    • Infinite positioning capability guarantees optimal feature access, minimizing stylus changes, especially when – probe-extension clearance is small
    • 5-axis controlled motion between features eliminates indexing 5-axis simultaneous motion allows larger parts to be measured on the CMM by minimizing the space required around the part for head rotation
    • PH20 automatically aligns itself with the part coordinate system, avoiding stylus collisions and the requirement for accurate fixtures

  • Faster calibration:
    • Unique ‘inferred calibration’ technique determines the head orientation and probe position in a single operation, allowing subsequent measurement at any head angle
    • Dramatic time savings accumulate as the calibration process is repeated on a regular basis to comply with quality procedures or following a probe crash
    • Enhanced metrology performance is also available by calibrating the probe tip at the feature orientation

  • Integral industry standard TP20 probe:
    • Integral TP20 probe mount to optimize working volume of CMM
    • Compatible with the existing range of proven TP20 probe modules: wide selection of trigger forces, directional sensing options and extensions to meet application requirements*
    • Detachable modules provide crash protection
    • Modules can be changed automatically using the TCR20 change rack

  • Improved touch-trigger metrology performance:
    • Repeatability is improved when ‘head touch’ method is Pre-Owned
    • Accuracy is improved by using feature orientation based calibration and ‘head touches’
    • Pre-travel variation is automatically compensated
    • Module changing – automatic tip offset correction
