year old CMMs can be retrofitted.

State of the art - also in the future

More complex components, shorter measuring times, huge amounts of data - the demands on coordinate measuring machines are constantly increasing. Older CMMs are now keeping pace with this - with a retrofit. An upgrade like this makes ZEISS CMMs fit for the challenges of the future.

Many options - one language

Digitalization and connectivity do not stop at measurement technology. To achieve this, your CMMs must all speak the same language. A retrofit brings older CMMs up to date - this means, for example, that uniform databases and cloud services can be used for multiple locations and devices.

Increased usability thanks to new features

Retrofit not only extends the service life. A new controller, connections for additional measuring systems and up-to-date software enable compatibility for the latest technologies. Advantage for the user: easier operation and higher productivity through more automation.

Fewer downtimes - more confidence

Over the years, it is possible that individual components of your measuring machine are subject to greater stress. A retrofit ensures that these components are back to the current series status even before they reach the end of their service life. For less downtime and fast service.

Like new, but more cost-effective

A retrofit is worthwhile: It costs no more than a third compared to a new machine. And it can help to minimize repair costs. This pays off especially if the CMM is closely integrated into the production process, where a failure can lead to high follow-up costs.

Digital services also for older measuring machines

Store data in the cloud, remote access, connecting different CMMs and protocols: What is taken for granted today was still the future 10 years ago. Retrofit from ZEISS upgrades your used CMM with the latest technologies and makes it ready for digital products such as ZEISS Smart Services.

The possibilities are almost limitless

From the update of the measuring software to the complete renewal including exchange of machine control, cabling and drive units - Retrofit offers almost unlimited possibilities to bring coordinate measuring machines back to the state of the art. Depending on the age and condition of your measuring machine, ZEISS retrofit products can be individually tailored to your needs - as individual upgrades or through smartly tailored upgrade packages from the Fit Family.

ZEISS Tempar

High-precision monitoring of environmental conditions for reliable measurement results.

Available as Accessories

Measuring head*

ZEISS VAST gold measuring head as sensor carrier for dynamic scanning, roughness measurement or the ZEISS Articulating Stylus.
Alternatively, the ZEISS RDS sensor carrier can be used to mount optical sensors like a camera, e.g. for elastic materials, a white light sensor for high-precision contactless measurement or a line scanner, e.g. for scanning free-form surfaces.

Prerequisite: ZEISS SensorFit

Workpiece clamping

Rotary table for extensive measurement in 4 axis without reclamping, e.g. of rotating parts*
Automatic temperature detection on the workpiece - No more false results due to insufficient temperature detection
Workpiece pallets with pallet changer for fast and efficient measurement in higher margins with integrated temperature measurement
