The GLOBAL S coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is the first of the Enhanced Productivity Series (EPS), leveraging the Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence solution portfolio by combining smart technologies with a focus on a superior measurement performance and increasing productivity. 

The GLOBAL S with Chrome precision level provides superior accuracy at the highest scanning speeds. This offers faster scanning measurements of non-predefined paths together with optimised path trajectories for quicker part-program execution.

GLOBAL S is built on the solid foundation of the highly-successful GLOBAL CMM platform. Optimised for tactile scanning performance and offering best-in-class throughput, GLOBAL S is the ideal solution for all operations requiring higher productivity in dimensional inspection, enhancing applications in the automotive, aerospace, general and precision manufacturing industries.

Developed to execute high-throughput measurement routines, the GLOBAL S provides detailed traceable results and helps reduce operator workload. It also combines both speed and accuracy to offer the fastest tactile scanning performance for a CMM in its class.

GLOBAL S is available with PC-DMIS software, the most widely-used measuring package in the world. For more specific applications, such as the inspection of special or complex geometries and unmatched data evaluation, QUINDOS software with its range of specialised modules is offered as an alternative.

A wide range of tactile scanning sensors and indexable wrists supported by a comprehensive selection of tool changers and styli to suit the most complex measurement applications, including the HP-S-X5 and HP-S-X3C fixed-scanning probing heads, and the HP-S-X1H scanning sensor which can be mounted on an indexing head. A complete selection  of tool changers, stylus options and other accessories ensure the most suitable probing configuration, whatever your application.
