LK Metrology is releasing its proprietary CAMIO software for programming, analysis, and reporting on coordinate measuring machines (CMM). The latest CAMIO 2026 R1 version enhances multi-sensor metrology with comprehensive support for Renishaw’s REVO 5-axis scanning probe system
The development will help manufacturers combine the speed and flexibility of REVO’s synchronised 5-axis motion with CAMIO’s inspection capabilities for complex tasks. It can manage bridge, horizontal arm and gantry CMMs, together with conventional touch-trigger probes, analogue scanning probes, laser scanners, and REVO.
Within CAMIO, users can program and execute REVO inspection routines directly, facilitating the full use of advanced, multi-axis measurement strategies. The software optimises probe motion and measurement paths to reduce inspection time and maintain measurement accuracy. Its interface and offline programming capabilities simplify inspection program development, enabling users to create, verify, and optimise routines before deploying them on the CMM, enhancing productivity and minimising machine downtime.
Jonathan Rich, CAMIO product manager, said, “Our goal has always been to give manufacturers the freedom to choose the right metrology hardware for every application, without changing the way they program and inspect parts. Support for the REVO 5-axis system is another important step in delivering a truly open metrology platform that adapts to the user’s manufacturing environment.
“Our customers can now unlock the full capabilities of REVO 5-axis scanning probes, while continuing to benefit from CAMIO’s familiar workflows and advanced inspection capabilities.”
LK Metrology can supply a complete solution consisting of the 5-axis scanning software alongside a range of REVO-enabled CMMs, providing manufacturers a single source for high-speed, high-accuracy, 5-axis inspection and reducing integration complexity while ensuring optimal performance and support.
CAMIO’s plug-and-play interoperability with REVO-equipped CMMs helps manufacturers deploy a single inspection software platform across mixed-brand CMMs, providing a consistent programming and inspection environment. This simplifies deployment across multiple machines and sites, reduces software lock-in, and increases the value of existing metrology assets.
Compatibility with REVO-equipped CMMs is achieved via the I++/DME client/server architecture, with CAMIO operating as the I++ client over a TCP/IP network and communicating with the I++ server of the UCC controller. This standards-based approach removes the need for proprietary software or hardware modifications, enabling straightforward integration while preserving existing metrology infrastructure.
