The 4.5.4 SF is a rugged CMM that is ideal for machine shops and manufacturing cells. It features advanced thermal compensation, covered ways, built-in vibration resistance, a shop-hardened design, and optional analog contact scanning. Its most notable feature is its flexibility. The 4.5.4 SF uses standard 110/220 volt outlets with no need for shop air. Its compact footprint and roll-around stand, specifically designed to fit through a standard door, lets you easily move the SF series anywhere in the shop where precise dimensional inspection is required.

The FARO Edge ScanArm HD is FARO's fastest 3D Laser Scanner. The new system is nearly 4 times faster than previous models and features an extra wide scan stripe, an increased frame rate, more points/line, and a far greater depth of field – the result is a capture rate of up to 560,000 points per second. This rapid scanning speed enables users to significantly reduce required measurement time. Learn more: http://faroscanarmhd.com/eng/
