ROMER Ball Probes
|
|
STANDARD Ball Probes for ROMER Absolute Arms with Integrated Scanners
|
ROMER Absolute Arms with integrated scanners always come with 3 ball probes.
|
|
TKJ Connector
|
ROMER Absolute Arms utilize a CMM-style kinematic joint, or TKJ type connector. TKJ connectors allow the probes to be detached and reconnected without re-calibration. |
|
Spare Ball Probes
While ball probes are sturdy, they are often the first item that breaks if an accident occurs (like a scanner is dropped).
We recommend that you have spare ball probes in stock at all times.
HEXAGON ACCESSORIES SITE
You can purchase new probes at the HEXAGON site.
