Precision and Efficiency Redefined: Introducing the New FORMTRACER AVANT Model FTA-H3000

Bringing next-generation surface & contour measurement to industries with unmatched accuracy, efficiency, and adaptability.

Neuss, February 2025 – Precision measurement reaches new heights with the launch of the FTA-H3000, a groundbreaking device that streamlines the measurement of surface roughness and contours in a single operation. Mitutoyo’s Formtracer AVANT series now welcomes the FTA-H3000, a model that seamlessly integrates surface roughness and contour measurement into a single drive unit. This addition completes a robust lineup, which includes the FTA-S3000 for surface roughness, the FTA-C3000 and FTA-C4000 for contour analysis, and the FTA-D3000 and FTA-D4000 featuring dual drive units. With the Formtracer AVANT series, Mitutoyo offers a versatile and comprehensive range to meet the demands of precision measurement.

Traditionally, measuring surface roughness and contour required two separate devices or drive units. The FTA-H3000 enables both measurements in just one operation, significantly reducing user error while maximizing productivity. Designed for manufacturers and professionals who demand high efficiency without compromising precision, this cutting-edge advancement streamlines processes like never before.

One of the defining features of the FTA-H3000 is its exceptional Z1 axis measuring range of 16 mm, a 3.2-fold increase compared to the previous model. This enhancement allows the device to measure workpieces with large height differences effortlessly, offering unparalleled versatility for diverse applications. Whether dealing with intricate components or larger structures, the FTA-H3000 enables precise, high-quality results.

Accuracy lies at the heart of the FTA-H3000. With a remarkable Z1 accuracy of (0.5+0.02H) µm and exceptionally low straightness noise, users can have complete confidence in their measurement data. The system is compliant with ISO 21920 and other industry standards, ensuring reliable and consistent performance. Additionally, its stylus attachment and removal mechanism allows for effortless interchangeability, offering a range of styli with different geometries to meet various measurement needs.

A key advantage of the FTA-H3000 is its seamless retrofit capability, providing existing Avant customers with a simple and cost-effective upgrade path. The “Hot Swap” function enables users to replace their drive units quickly and effortlessly using a tool-free rotary clamp system, ensuring minimal downtime and uninterrupted workflow. This retrofit option extends the lifespan of existing equipment while integrating the latest advancements in measurement technology.
