Hexagon GLOBAL Optics CMM high resolution optics
Product Information
Description
Optical high-resolution measurements of miniature size and form features on challenging surfaces
Equipped with a chromatic white light sensor as standard, GLOBAL Optics is ideal for non-contact measurement of the geometric size and form characteristics of sensitive workpieces that cannot be touched and those with particularly challenging surfaces.
An indexing probe head provides excellent access to part features from almost any angle and direction, allowing optimal alignment of the chromatic white light sensor to the measured surface. Furthermore, in combination with an automatic sensor changer rack, and thanks to Hexagon’s opto-mechanical sensor interface, different sensors can be easily exchanged on the indexing probe head, maximising the CMM’s multisensor flexibility.
Application challenges
- Non-contact size and form measurements on varied part surfaces
- Soft and sensitive parts that cannot be touched
- Very small geometries (microgeometries)
- Varied materials and surface finishes: matte, transparent, reflective, microstructured, coated
- GLOBAL Optics benefits
- Optical high-resolution measurement for capturing the smallest geometric structures
- Single‑point distance measurement and scanning of freeform surfaces
- Surface-independent measurements
- Thickness measurements on transparent materials
Base System
HP-OW Optical Sensor
HP-OW sensor uses chromatic white-light spectroscopy to take highly accurate measurements on varied surface finishes across a wide array of applications.
HP-THDe Touch Trigger Probe
The HP-THDe touch trigger probe has been designed to take advantage of cutting-edge technology and deliver highly accurate touch trigger probing with styli builds of up to 100 mm. It offers high-precision repeatability and low 3D form error thanks to a highly innovative opto-mechanical design capable of detecting nanometric movements in the X, Y and Z directions.
Automatic Sensor changer rack
Adapt to specific application needs with fast and repeatable exchanges of sensor and styli configurations.
PC-DMIS CAD++
Measure the most complex parts. CAD++ includes sophisticated tools for high-speed scanning, sheet metal measurement, part alignment, automatic GD&T recognition, and more.

Features
GLOBAL CMMs are built on advanced design principles to inspire certainty and confidence. They combine quality components and state-of-the-art technologies for long-term stability, reduced measurement uncertainty, adaptability to harsh measuring environments, fast measuring point capture and an advanced user experience. These metrology solutions will provide manufacturers with maximum value over the entire lifecycle.
- Sturdy mechanical design The solid granite base with integrated dovetail guide guarantees long‑term system stability and consistent accuracy over the entire measurement volume.
- Temperature compensation Real‑time compensation of thermally caused measurement deviations through temperature sensing at the scales and on the workpiece ensures reliable measurement results.
- Messaging lights (option) Messaging lights give operators the ability to monitor the machine’s status even from a distance, to optimise time and resource management.
- Bridge with triangular crossbeam Featuring an improved stiffness-to-mass ratio relative to square or rectangular traverses, this design allows for the highest dynamics and high‑speed measurements.
- Extended temperature operating range (option) Measure your components with more resistance to environmental influences. An extended temperature operating range (15 - 30°C) allows the CMM to operate closer to the production line without needing a costly climate room.
- High-speed and safety Continuous monitoring of a defined safety area around the CMM allows worry-free high-speed measurement in CNC mode. The machine will slow down automatically when the user or an object encroaches upon the protected area.
- Preloaded air bearings on all axes Contactless, low-friction and low-wear axis motion ensures fast and repeatable positioning at all speeds and accelerations, resulting in low measuring uncertainties.
- Real-time environmental monitoring (option) PULSE enables the user to monitor and log any environmental conditions surrounding the CMM and receive real‑time machine information.
- Future-ready concept The future‑ready pre‑cabling enables easy adaptation of the CMMs to future measurement tasks without costly downtime. A range of adaptability options can be flexibly selected during initial CMM configuration or set up later as upgrades.
- Low-maintenance belt drive system Flat and V-ribbed belts ensure smooth and low-vibration axis motion.
- Eco Mode Eco Mode supports sustainability and productivity goals by automatically powering down the CMM when idle, which improves energy efficiency while keeping the machine ready to go.
- Future-ready concept The future‑ready pre‑cabling enables easy adaptation of the CMMs to future measurement tasks without costly downtime. A range of adaptability options can be flexibly selected during initial CMM configuration or set up later as upgrades.
