This page answers questions about which FARO arm to use in your tube measuring application. We've listed the different options in this page so that you know what to consider.

Arm Repeatability

This chart shows the arm repeatability for the different FARO arm models. This chart shows the arm lengths in VOLUMES - which means the diameter of the sphere volume that the arm can reach in total. So the length of the arm 1/2 the volume value.

	WORKING VOLUME
	1.2 M (4 foot)	1.8 M (6 foot)	2.4 M (8 foot)	2.7 M (9 foot)	3 M (10 foot)	3.7 M (12 foot)
Edge		0.024 (0.0009)		0.029 (0.001)		0.064 (0.0025)
Prime	0.016 (0.0006)	0.019 (0.00075)	0.024 (0.0009)		0.042 (0.0017)	0.060 (0.0023)
Fusion		0.036 (0.0014)	0.043 (0.0017)		0.074 (0.0029)	0.104 (0.0055)
