The Hexagon Absolute Arm V3P 8730 7-Axis is a premium portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) from the 87 Series, built for ultra-high accuracy probing and 3D laser scanning.

With a 3.0 m measuring range (3.48 m max reach), it combines extended reach with top-level precision. It is ideal for high-accuracy inspection, reverse engineering, and quality control in aerospace, automotive, and advanced manufacturing.

The 7-axis configuration enables efficient use of laser scanners for fast data capture in CAD comparison, inspection, and surface analysis. Compared to the 83 and 85 Series, it offers superior accuracy. The system supports quick switching between scanning and probing without recalibration. A modular scanner can be removed for tight areas.

Absolute Encoder technology eliminates warm-up and referencing, ensuring immediate and consistent performance. Carbon-fiber construction provides rigidity and thermal stability.

The Zero-G counterbalance system improves ergonomics and reduces operator fatigue during extended use.

Compatible with PolyWorks, SpatialAnalyzer, and PC-DMIS.
