Mitutoyo Crysta Apex CMM with REVO 5-axis probe head ready to provide CMM inspection services

Plant List

A list of measuring equipment and support tools held by AB Technology, including working volumes, sensors, software, and traceability details.

Overview

We operate a range of Coordinate Measurement Machines (CMMs) and 3D Scanning systems to cover most inspection and reverse engineering work. All our equipment is kept in our temperature controlled laboratory and is regularly calibrated and maintained under our ISO 9001 quality system.

Our High Precision Coordinate Measurement Machines (CMMs)

For high precision and high volume projects, we use our fully automated CMM systems with OEM UKAS calibrations and traceability to international standards.

Our Professional 3D Scanning Equipment

We use professional-grade Shining 3D scanners, selecting the optimal technology for each project

Other Measurement Tools

Beyond our CMMs and 3D scanners, we maintain a comprehensive range of calibrated hand tools and bench-mounted equipment to support all aspects of dimensional measurement and quality control.

Mitutoyo Profile Projector

Our optical profile projector allows precise measurement and inspection of small components, with particular effectiveness on chamfers, radii, and other fine features.

Calibrated Hand Tools

All tools are maintained to ensure traceability and accuracy, supporting manual inspection work, setup verification, and dimensional checks alongside our CMM and 3D scanning capabilities.
