ZEISS CMM Probing Systems
THE leader in CMM probing for the CMM industry.
ZEISS has been providing scanning technology on their CMM’s since 1972.

VAST Probing System
- Most accurate probing system
- Can reach 24” without losing ANY accuracy
- Fixed head
- Can scan a bore taking 500 points faster than taking 8 single points.
- When used with a probe rack, any angle and any rotation can be reached
- Probe Styli do not need to be re-qualified everyday, thus saving you time and money.

RDS Probing System
- Rotates +/- 180 Degrees in both axis
- Increments every 2.5 degrees
- Over 21,000 positions
- Very versatile with capability of many different sensors. See below.


RDS Vi-Scan
- Camera System for RDS Head
- Turn your CMM into a vision system
- Articulate the camera around your entire part.
- Edge detection for automatic probing
- Can be automatically be used in the middle of a program.

RDS Line Scan
- Laser system for gathering 1000’s of surface data points
- Used to compare surfaces to CAD model
- Great for Reverse Engineering
- Full Articulation
- Can be automatically be used in the middle of a program.

DOT Scan
- The latest technology from ZEISS
- Chromatic white light sensor
- Used for gather thousands of surface data points
- Excellent for sensitive, soft, reflective or low-contrast surfaces.
- Possible to distinguish transparent lacquered surfaces from other underlying metallic layers.
- No need to spray a medium on highly reflective parts.
