Measurement and inspection equipment specialist Mitutoyo has integrated three QuadMatic and seven QuadSlimLine rotary tables from RPI into CMMs at its Japanese and UK operations.

RPI engineers travelled to Japan to support Mitutoyo with training and maintenance, and were also on hand to help integrate a two-axis rotary table at Mitutoyo in Halifax, UK.
RPI’s rotary tables are designed as a fourth axis, and are accurate to ±0.5 arc-seconds, which is equivalent to hitting a golf ball at a hole more than 22 km away and scoring a hole in one every time.
“It’s great news that Mitutoyo has chosen to invest in 10 of our Quadrant range rotary tables,” says Jim Palmer, RPI’s sales manager. “As well as significantly improving overall measurement accuracy and reducing uncertainty, our rotary tables greatly increase measuring volume, thereby improving the flexibility, productivity and efficiency of our customers’ CMMs.”
Adding Mitutoyo to its customer base means RPI now supplies all the major CMM manufacturers which use rotary tables, including Hexagon, LK and Wenzel. RPI has been supplying the CMM market since 1977 and can boast more than 750 successful installations worldwide.
The QuadSlimLine and QuadMatic ranges are part of RPI’s Quadrant range of CMM tables, which also includes the QuadDualPurpose, QuadProfile and the QuadUniversal. These tables come in a wide size range, from 200 to 1,500 mm diameter, and can be fully integrated to the host machine controller.
