Fast motion-control and measurement-data processing
Integrated CMM Drive-and-Control Platform
MACC Series
Motion Control for Your CMM System
Integrated Drive-and-Control Platform for CMMs
The MACC Series combines motion control, motor drives and probe-head interfaces in a compact chassis. Designed for stable performance and straightforward integration, it supports trigger measurement and, on PLUS models, scanning measurement across a wide range of CMM applications.
Motor drives and controller functions in one chassis
A compact architecture with fewer external interconnections
Open integration with compatible measurement software
Match control to the machine and probing task
Compare the controller models, review the required probing interfaces, and check the existing machine details before planning integration.

Direct connection
TouchDMIS
TouchDMIS connects directly to MACC without an I++ Server layer. The connection uses the PeakMerit SDK.
TouchDMIS MACC
Compatibility depends on software version, interface licensing, and the selected machine and probing configuration.
Developed In-House for the MACC Platform
One Software Stack from Commissioning to Measurement
PeakMerit-developed IPPServer and MACC Tuning Software give machine builders, integrators and service teams direct tools for setup, tuning, software integration and lifecycle support.Measurement Software Integration
IPPServer
The in-house I++ server layer connects the MACC controller with compatible measurement software while keeping commands, results and alarms visible to operators and service teams.
Common I++ Software Examples
CMM-ManagerPC-DMISPolyWorksMetrolog X4
Compatibility depends on software version, interface licensing, and the selected machine and probing configuration.- I++ 1.7 communication for measurement software integration
- Detailed logs of commands, execution results, returned data and alarms
- Probe activation, calibration, naming and indexed-head angle management
- Reference-sphere positioning and guided probe-system setup
Commissioning, Diagnostics & Service
MACC Tuning Software
The in-house tuning environment makes commissioning straightforward with a guided, easy-to-use workflow and built-in auto tuning, while keeping live data, tests and maintenance tools close at hand.
Simplified Commissioning
