LAKE MARY, Fla., July 3, 2012 /CNW/ - FARO Technologies, Inc. , the
world's most trusted source for 3D measurement technology, today
announced the newest and most accurate addition to its FaroArm
lineup, the Prime arm. This six-axis portable measurement arm
delivers exceptional value to customers who require a
high-accuracy, contact-only measurement solution for everyday
inspection and quality assurance routines. (Logo:

in four lengths from six to twelve feet (1.8m to 3.7m), the FARO
Prime promises accuracies as tight as .019 mm (.0007 in.). This
newest FaroArm is also Bluetooth® equipped, eliminating the need to
tether the device to a laptop. An extended-use battery and
composite material construction ensure shop floor durability, day
after day. Together, these features make the Prime the ideal
solution for basic measurements in inspection, reverse engineering,
CAD-to-part analysis and anywhere else a high-accuracy,
hard-probing measurement solution is needed. The Prime joins the
Fusion and the Edge, FARO's flagship and most advanced measurement
arm, in the industry-leading FaroArm line. The FARO Edge continues
to deliver exclusive features like a touch screen, on-board
operating system and the industry's smallest and lightest handheld
laser scanner, the FARO Laser Line Probe (LLP). "Customer need and
input is the driving force behind innovation at FARO," explained
Orlando Perez, Director of Product Management for the FaroArm. "Our
customers demanded greater accuracy for routine contact measurement
applications, without many of the added features or 3D scanning
capabilities you'd find in the Edge. The result is the Prime. It's
accurate, durable, easy-to-use and provides the solution that much
of the marketplace has been asking for." The Prime is compatible
with FARO's CAM2 Measure 10 software and others, and is available
now from FARO Technologies. "We're excited to introduce the Prime
to the market. This is the most accurate FaroArm available, offered
at an unmatched value," said Jay Freeland, FARO's Chief Executive
Officer. "This newest FaroArm delivers outstanding performance and
makes our innovative technology accessible to a whole new group of
potential customers. We think they're going to love the Prime."
