Physically moving my CMM

I need to move my CMM (Optiv C321) to a new location. I kmow it is recommended that I have Hexagon do it because a special pallet is needed. I have one so I want to move it myself and call on Hexagon only to calibrate. Has anybody done if yourself? Can anybody anticipate any problem with moving it myself?

  • Every time our hexagon tech comes in for annual calibration, he always has pictures of wacky CMM tragedies. Just this August, he came in with photos of a bridge CMM falling off a forklift when someone tried to load it onto a truck. It was beautiful.

    We've moved bridge CMMs many times with pallet jacks across the shop floor, but will call hexagon when moving between buildings. Just have multiple hands on deck and be patient.
