Faro Technologies Inc. recently announced the release of the Quantum FaroArm—the first eight-foot arm proven to measure accurately to within .0007", a fifth of the width of a human hair. According to company president and chief executive officer Jay Freeland, the FaroArm provides support for companies constrained by the limitations of fixed coordinate measuring machines and less portable models. The FaroArm has the capability to inspect and perform CAD-to-part analysis in any environment.
