Articulating Arms

Owning an articulating arm gives companies a powerful edge in precision measurement and inspection. These portable, flexible devices allow fast, accurate 3D measurements directly on the shop floor, eliminating the need to move parts to a fixed CMM. They’re ideal for inspecting complex geometries, performing alignments, and capturing data for reverse engineering. With software integration and multi-sensor compatibility, articulating arms streamline workflows, reduce downtime, and enhance quality control—making them a smart investment for manufacturers who value speed, accuracy, and adaptability. We offer all of the equipment listed and more.

GAMMA 6/7/8 Series

With tiered accuracy options (P, M, E) that fit your budget, 6- and 7-axis configurations, and compatibility with 8-axis rotary tables, the GAMMA from PMT is perfect for any inspection challenge. Its smart sensing probe system and force-isolated design minimize operator fatigue while maximizing repeatability. Add seamless software integration and a quick-mount base collar, and you’ve got a metrology arm that outperforms the rest — all while being nearly half of the cost .
