The XM-60 multi-axis calibrator measures all six degrees of freedom from a single setup in any orientation for linear axes and captures angular, linear and straightness errors. The laser system includes an optical roll measurement and fiber optic launch system. The compact launch unit is remote from the laser unit, reducing heat effects at the point of measurement. It can be mounted directly to the machine on its side, upside down and even on its back. The fully wireless receiver is powered by rechargeable batteries, avoiding trailing cables during machine moves that could cause inaccuracies or break the laser beam during measurement.
