Selection Guide
Start with the inspection task
Match the head to the probe type, feature access, extension requirement, and controller compatibility.
01 / High throughput
Fast touch-trigger inspection
For production CMMs measuring prismatic parts, bores, datums, and general geometric features.
- Recommended head
- CZ10T-S
- Best differentiator
- 2.2 s indexing
- Typical probe
- CF20 / TP20
02 / Scanning & reach
Scanning or long-extension access
For dense surface data, profiles, deep features, or configurations requiring more torque.
- Flexible scanning
- CZ10M-S
- High torque / reach
- CZ10M-L
- Recommended probe
- SC30 Series
03 / Cost & simplicity
Manual or fixed installation
For lower-complexity applications where full automatic indexing is not required.
- Semi-automatic
- CZ20i
- Fixed straight
- CZ6
