British coordinate measuring machine (CMM) manufacturer LK Metrology, Inc. (Derby, UK) celebrated their first year of trading as a stand-alone company again, following their purchase at the end of March 2018 from Nikon Metrology by Angelo Muscarella, owner of Italian firm ASF Metrology. The last time LK was independently owned was prior to their takeover by former holding group Metris at the beginning of 2006.
“We are delighted to complete our first year so successfully, during which we made a profit despite the expense incurred in transferring ownership of the company, which included opening a new office in Shanghai,” commented Muscarella. “We have already launched a packaged version of our Altera CMM with Renishaw REVO-2 probe, the SCANtek 5, and the new Altera C 10.7.5, which is the first of three sizes planned. It will be supplied with our CAMIO programming, analysis and reporting software, plus a Renishaw indexing head and touch probe that can be exchanged for a laser scanner. The machine lowers the price of entry to CMM multi-sensor inspection technology and will be officially launched later this year.”
