Scan arm longevity in Europe awarded by FaroERT

Faro Technologies announces that the Swedish Öhlins Racing, a pioneer in advanced suspension technology, is the winner to its ‘Oldest working FaroArm in Europe’ contest.

Öhlins Racing has put its 1993-era Faro Metrecom Arm to good use for dozens of years, demonstrating the durability and reliability of the FaroArm products. In recognition of their longevity among over 200 submissions across the region, the company was presented with a new Faro 8-Axis Quantum ScanArm System that will further enhance its productivity through faster and more accurate 3D measurement.

The new 8-axis rotary scanning platform decreases scan times up to 40%, while maintaining accuracy, even in compact spaces, extending maximum measurement consistency and reliability in a variety of working environments. The product also features a superior ergonomic design with comfortable handles and quick swap probes that improves ease-of-use. A hot-swappable battery enables continuous cable-free operation while integrated WiFi enables optimized workflow efficiency. The system is also IEC certified for shock, vibration and temperature stress.
