Artifacts

Artifacts and normals

As all ARXGeometres artifacts are based on the same element – the tetronom-single bar – you can configure your own artifact according to your needs: Either, you use only one single bar for your measurements, or you set-up the artifact in the shape of a tetrahedron (tetronom), octahedron (oktonom) or as a ball bar. The set-up takes merely a few minutes.  Why so fast? Because the targets at both ends of the single bar are attached with the help of magnets. No screwing together, no laborious work steps. Of course, our artifacts fulfill all requirements with respect to calibration (traceability) and testing of measuring devices.

Artifacts with ultimate flexibility

The single bar is made of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic). It is equipped with two target mounts that allow for the magnetic attachment of interchangeable targets. Due to its construction, the tetronom-single bar is very lightweight and yet very sturdy. The target mounts are patented, self-compensating measuring heads which make the bar more stable in length despite temperature fluctuations.
