Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence has released TIBOX enclosure for the TIGO SF shop-floor coordinate measuring machine (CMM). The TIBOX offers protection for systems operating in extreme workshop conditions, shielding against dust, airborne pollutants, oil particle suspension and other manufacturing environment contaminants.

Transparent panels allow visual checks from every direction, while openings on three sides give users full access to the measurement volume. Integrated lighting benefits operators working in dark or changeable light conditions and a signal tower option offers long-distance machine status monitoring.

The TIBOX enclosure also allows access to the machine for both routine and maintenance operations. It is fully-compatible with the TIGO SF’s integrated monitor and keyboard mountings.

Anna Maria Izzi, product manager at Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence said, “In creating TIBOX, we focused on increasing protection for the TIGO SF without losing the benefits of this design.”

The TIBOX is available to order worldwide from today as an option with all new orders of TIGO SF, or as a retrofit system for installed units. More information is available through local Hexagon commercial operations and dealers.
