Retrofits

CHE have completed many retrofits on manual and CNC coordinate measuring machines and see it as a cost effective solution for some customers who have a great machine with outdated or expensive to maintain software and/or obsolete machine controllers.


We are very proud to have worked for over 10 years with Aberlink, being the largest UK CMM manufacturer. Aberlink software and machines are a very cost effective solution for many customers. CHE can offer the following:

  • Manual retrofit for any CMM (Installing new Deva Controller)
  • CNC retrofit for any CMM (Installing new Deva Controller)
  • Custom cabling manufacture to connect to existing machine interconnections.
  • Full error mapping
  • Training On/Offsite
  • Full Technical Support direct.

Two very big points with Aberlink software is that you are not tied to an expensive SMA (software maintenance agreement) so future proofing your investment is guaranteed. All Deva Electronic Controls equipment used for retrofits are covered by a standard 3 Year Warranty, all equipment being designed, manufactured and assembled in the UK.
