About KMG Messtechnik
KMG Messtechnik E. Brökling has been active in the field of 3D metrology since 1992. The focus is on trading stylus tips and accessories for Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) and height measuring devices. The product range includes standard and special stylus tips with M1.4 to M5 thread connections, reference spheres with factory or DKD certificate, extensions, holders, and clamping devices for fixing workpieces on the measuring machine. Additionally, 3D measuring devices (Axiom too, ZENITH), an optical 2D measuring device (Project X), and the measurement software Aberlink 3D and CAD-Link are distributed. Special stylus tips are configured according to drawings; material selection includes ruby, carbon fiber (CFK), aluminum, steel, and plastic. For the calibration of reference standards and the measurement of geometries, the company facilitates accredited calibration laboratories according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025. The head office is in Bergisch Gladbach.
