Best-Fit Applications

Where Taurus Fits Best

Taurus is selected when part envelope, fixture size, or loading method exceeds bridge CMM limits and the project requires gantry planning.

Large parts

Use Taurus for oversized parts, fixtures, tooling, and heavy components that exceed bridge CMM travel.

Aerospace structures

A fit when foundation, loading route, fixture height, and site preparation are part of the quote.

Automotive tooling

Best handled as a project-specific gantry configuration rather than a standard catalog purchase.

Engineering Highlights

Taurus Structure and Motion Package

Taurus is a project-style gantry CMM where foundation, loading route, dual-side motion, and on-site acceptance planning are part of the configuration.

Floor-Mounted Gantry Structure

Uses the foundation plane as the working table for easier loading of large and heavy workpieces.

High-Rigidity Drive System

Three axes use zero-return gap and high-stiffness friction steel-belt drive.

Ultra-Long Y-Axis Guides

Smooth guide joining technology supports long-travel large-part measurement.

Dual-Side Gantry Control

Dual elevated sides, dual scales, and dual drives help reduce Y-axis yaw error.

Project Planning

Large-Part CMM Planning Checklist

1

Foundation planning

Confirm foundation flatness, stability, embedded plate requirements, machine footprint, and surrounding clearance.

2

Transportation route

Review unloading method, door height, crane or forklift access, crate path, and installation space.

3

Installation and alignment

Plan installation sequence, leveling, guide alignment, air and power routing, and environmental stabilization.

4

On-site acceptance

Define acceptance artifact, measurement length, temperature condition, and acceptance standard before shipment.

5

Custom load requirements

Clarify maximum part weight, loading method, floor loading, fixture height, and part support strategy.

6

Project timeline

Align production schedule, site preparation, installation crew, acceptance testing, and operator training.
