LHF Gantry CMM – WENZEL UK
An exceptionally robust, floor-level gantry CMM tailored for precision inspection of large, complex workpieces. Ideal for UK manufacturing environments—ranging from aerospace frames to maritime propulsion systems—offering a generous measuring envelope with effortless accessibility.
Why UK Manufacturers Choose the LHF Gantry CMM
Ground-level, gantry-style design
Designed without an elevated base, the LHF enables easy loading and operation at floor level—perfect for heavy or awkward components up to 12 m in Y-axis length WENZELAir-bearing guide precision
All axes glide on hydrostatic air bearings across granite guideways, ensuring frictionless motion and long-term measurement integrityDynamic double‑drive Y‑axis
Twin Y-axis drives deliver outstanding acceleration and speed, maintaining rigidity even under heavy inertial loadsTemperature compensation available
Optional automatic thermal correction for both the machine and workpiece addresses UK workshop temperature fluctuationsVersatile sensor compatibility
Supports a wide variety of Renishaw systems, including tactile PH10/PH20 heads, SP25/SP80 scanning probes, REVO 5-axis, and optical options
Key Advantages of Gantry CMM
Massive capacity & accessibility — perfect for loading bulky parts with minimal tooling
Built-in stability — granite beams plus air bearings mean high precision out of the box
Scalable to your needs — modular lengths, accuracy classes (Standard, Premium, Premium‑Select), plus thermal compensation
Modular sensor upgrades — easily switch between tactile, scanning, optical and 5-axis options
Cost-effective operation — low air consumption, affordable spare parts, and reduced recalibration
