The manual version, Micro-Hite 3D, is ergonomic and easy to use: it is therefore the ideal replacement of hand tools and gages. 

Micro-Hite 3D’s optional fine adjustment is particularly useful for small features where a precision touch is required. Thermally compatible materials and components minimize the influence of ambient temperature on measurement results, making the Micro-Hite 3D the perfect measuring system for virtually any application.

• Lock/unlock system that enhances control of each individual axis
• Z-Mouse, patented pointing device, that dramatically increases manual measurement throughput. Embedded in the machine Z column, it totally eliminates the need for the operator to move back and forth between the measuring machine and the computer.
• Hand Control device: conveniently located on the machine table, it further speeds up measuring operations.
• Fine adjustment (option)
• Tricision® technology controls bridge axis roll for precise volumetric measuring accuracy.
• 21 air bearings ensure frictionless motion along all three axes.
