Integrated CMM Drive-and-Control Platform

MACC Series

High-Precision Motion Controller

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.

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 server layer connects the MACC controller with DMIS measurement software while keeping commands, results and alarms visible to operators and service teams.

Common I++ Software Examples

CMM-ManagerTouchDMISPolyWorksPC-DMIS
Exact software version, licensed interface option and function scope are confirmed during project configuration.
  • I++ 1.7 communication for DMIS software integration
  • Detailed command, execution-result, returned-data and alarm records
  • Probe activation, calibration, naming and indexed-head angle management
  • Reference-sphere positioning and guided probe-system construction

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

Easy to UseGuided SetupAuto Tuning
Auto tuning accelerates initial setup, while live curves and manual adjustment keep engineers in control.
  • Step-by-step setup wizard for machine, axis, measurement and operator-control parameters
  • Built-in auto tuning with graphical current-, speed- and position-loop verification
  • I/O, homing, soft-limit, hand-controller, motion-cycle and automatic-head testing
  • 16-channel temperature monitoring, compensation-data handling and controller parameter tools
