Cordax Endeavor+ CMM

The Cordax Endeavor+ CMM brings you a new level of inspection performance suitable for both the shop floor and the inspection laboratory.  You can rely on a high level of performance never before possible in a cost-effective machine which can withstand many manufacturing environments.  No shop floor CMM has ever been this capable, and no lab machine has ever been this affordable to operate.

Endeavor+'s rigid yet lightweight moving structure and optimal bearing locations provide more accurate control without drive system distortion.  Endeavor+'s design is inherently vibration resistant, so the standard elastomeric isolation pads may be all you need.  Performance is specified over two temperature ranges to suite both metrology laboratory and shop floor environments.  A completely modular machine design allows for dozens of different configurations, so Sheffield can build an Endeavor+ just the right size for your application.

Higher reliability, lower operating cost.  A linear motor magnetic drive system with no moving parts is at the heart of Endeavor+'s XY motion system, so there are no belts, pulleys or other mechanical linkages to wear, break or adjust.  The result is a remarkably quiet, smooth moving machine that is easy to maintain and typically needs no other service than regular calibration recertification.

Design features:

• Aluminum bridge with ceramic probe shaft provides stiff and lightweight moving mass
• Excellent bearing spread ratios (nearly 1:1) contributes to stable, repeatable design
• Designed for ease of manufacture, assembly and maintainability
• Covers quick removal guarantees rapid and easy access to the machine mechanical structure for maintenance/repair operations
• The solid black granite base provides a solid foundation with long term dimensional stability and thermal and vibration resistance
• Revolutionary linear motor design mean there are no belts, pulleys or other mechanical linkages to wear, break or adjust and backlash is totally eliminated
• Structural design minimizes distortions in the metrology frame due to temperature changes
