Certified Precision. Built for the Floor, Not Just the Lab.

The SCANOLOGY AccuArm is a high-accuracy portable CMM purpose-built for manufacturers who need reliable measurement results outside the controlled conditions of a traditional metrology lab. From complex part geometries and tight-tolerance assemblies to fixture adjustment and on-site production inspection, AccuArm delivers where fixed CMMs fall short.
At the core of AccuArm’s performance are aerospace-grade encoders, low-friction precision bearings, and a suite of intelligent compensation algorithms that work in real time to protect accuracy under real-world conditions. Automated thermal compensation accounts for both the arm and the part. Automated force compensation responds to changes in probe pressure and orientation. Multi-frame optimization reduces random error and strengthens measurement confidence at every point.
Lightweight, portable, and designed for single-person operation, AccuArm sets up in minutes and adapts to virtually any application. And built on the Arm+ philosophy, it serves as the foundation of a scalable measurement ecosystem, integrating seamlessly with SCANOLOGY’s 3D scanners and optical systems when your workflow demands more.

Accurate Where It Counts. Certified Where It Matters.

Industrial inspection leaves no room for uncertainty. AccuArm is certified to ISO 10360-12 and available in three accuracy performance levels: S (Superior), E (Enhanced), and C (Classic), paired with five reach options from 1.5 to 4.5 meters. Whether you are inspecting small precision components or large-format assemblies, AccuArm delivers stable, high-accuracy results that meet the stringent demands of industrial manufacturing.
Underpinning that accuracy is a set of intelligent onboard algorithms that operate continuously during measurement. Real-time thermal compensation adjusts for temperature variation affecting both the arm and the part. Automated force compensation responds to shifts in probe pressure and orientation without operator input. Multi-frame optimization reduces random measurement error and increases point-level confidence. The result is a portable CMM that performs with the consistency of a fixed system, anywhere you need to measure.

Portable by Design. Capable by Engineering.

AccuArm is built for single-person operation without sacrificing measurement performance. Its aerospace-grade carbon-fiber construction keeps weight low while maintaining the structural rigidity required for precise, repeatable results. A spring counterbalance design makes the arm virtually weightless during use, reducing operator fatigue across long inspection sessions.
Setup takes minutes. Probe changes require no recalibration. Hot-swappable, fast-charging batteries eliminate interruptions, and a USB Wi-Fi module ensures fast, stable, and secure data transfer throughout the workflow. From carrying the arm to the measurement point to delivering a complete inspection report, AccuArm is designed to keep your team moving without the constraints of fixed infrastructure or complex setup procedures.

One Arm. An Expandable Measurement Ecosystem.

AccuArm is more than a portable measuring arm. It is the foundation of the Arm+ philosophy, SCANOLOGY’s approach to building flexible, expandable measurement solutions that fit the way modern manufacturers actually work.
Out of the box, AccuArm handles a wide range of inspection tasks with precision and confidence. When the application demands more, it integrates seamlessly with SCANOLOGY’s versatile 3D scanners and optical measurement systems, expanding capability without disrupting existing workflows. The result is a unified platform that adapts across parts, industries, and working environments, delivering a fully connected workflow from measurement and analysis through to reporting. One investment. Scalable to your operation, now and as it grows.
