The right styli configuration is the foundation for reliable measurements on every coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Due to wear, collisions or changes in the process, configurations need adjustments occasionally. The correct setting of specific angles and rotations can be challenging and time-consuming, but are crucial for precise results. 

With Hexagon’s Swift-Set styli setup device, operators can easily and quickly build various styli configurations which fit right into Hexagon’s HP-S-X tactile scanning sensors. Being able to create and recreate accurate styli configurations helps make program generation and probe qualification easier and more efficient. 

Swift-Set is a benchtop tooling aid designed to help users set styli module rotation angles as well as knuckle joint angles for a variety of different probe module sizes. Swift-Set is designed to eliminate guesswork and complicated measurements associated with multiple probe builds and reduce initial setup time.

With this adapter, operators can build styli builds for the HP-S-X3 scanning sensor.
