Endeavor 3 Plus CMM

The new Endeavor 3 CMM is the ideal solution for all kinds of dimensional measurement requirements — from manufacturers purchasing their first coordinate measuring machine, to large manufacturing operations looking for multiple CMMs with maximum price-to-performance ratio. Endeavor 3 and Endeavor 3 Plus models combine breakthrough design, proven construction and control technology, and today’s most advanced measurement software to provide accuracy, high throughput and rugged reliability in an extremely cost effective measurement and inspection package. And you can select the measuring and data collection mode that’s best for your application, choosing from the latest point-to-point, contact scanning, non-contact scanning and optical imaging technologies.

Like all genuine Sheffield Cordax® CMMs, Endeavor 3 machines are backed by Hexagon Metrology, the world’s largest manufacturer of coordinate measurement systems. Each Endeavor 3 CMM is checked and certified—meeting the most rigorous application test procedures required by B89 and ISO standards.

Two full model lines . . .

. . . nine standard sizes and a complete range of sensors and accessories to let you tailor your Endeavor 3 to nearly any dimensional measurementor inspection application. Endeavor 3 comes configured for extended temperature performance between 16 – 26°C, making it flexible enough for many shop floor environments.

Endeavor 3 base models offer high performance and CAD capability at an extremely cost-effective price. It’s perfect as a first CMM, or in multiple machine operations requiring high-accuracy point-to-point, touch-trigger dimensional measurement.  Models offering measuring envelopes from 500mmx 500mm x 500mm to 900mm x 2000mm x 800mm.

Endeavor 3 Plus models give youthe accuracy you need for high-tolerance parts, and the versatility of tactile scanning, non-contact scanning and optical imaging capability. Models range in size from 500mm x 500mmx 500mm to 1200mm x 3000mm x 1000mm measuring envelopes.

Technical Information

Design features

  • The patented Tricision bridge, with wider bearing separation, a lower center of gravity and lighter weight than a conventional bridge, has a better rigidity-to-mass ratio for higher accuracy, speed and reliability.
  • Heidenhain high resolution scales and readheads feature METALLUR® gold-on-steel construction.
  • The X axis beam and Z axis ram are constructed of micro-machined aluminum alloy for a higher strength-to-weight ratio.
  • One-piece granite worktable provides a solid, stable work surface.
  • Aluminum orifice air bearings offer unsurpassed reliability and optimum stiffness.

Environment

  • Performance is specified over two temperature ranges to suite both metrology laboratory and shop floor environments.

Performance Data

  • In general, Sheffield Measurement tests and evaluates CMM products using the American Standard ASME B89 and International Standard, ISO 10360-2
