Hexagon Metrology Inc. Forms New Portable Metrology Group (PMG) New Web Site Coincides with PMG Launch

Wixom, MI - February 27, 2007 - Hexagon Metrology today announced the launch of its new Portable Metrology Group to serve the North American inspection and measurement marketplace. The newly formed PMG division is supported by the simultaneous unveiling of an information-rich web site at www.portablecmm.us. The Hexagon PMG Group now provides a single source for the industry's leading portable CMMs - Leica Geosystems laser trackers and ROMER portable arms - used worldwide by the aerospace, automotive, heavy machinery, and general engineering industries.

The Hexagon Metrology group of Hexagon AB (Nacka Strand, Sweden) is the world's largest manufacturer of precision dimensional measurement equipment and software. With recent acquisitions in the PCMM (Portable Coordinate Measurement Machine) sector, the firm has streamlined its expanding enterprise by integrating sales/ marketing forces and customer service operations into a synergistic business group to better serve their large, diverse client base.

"Like any large company with a wide range of products, Hexagon Metrology has to consistently evaluate, unify, and simplify infrastructure," states Bill Gruber, President of Hexagon Metrology, Inc. "Growth is an evolutionary process of consolidation. Our measurement technologies fall into clear vertical segments: portable CMMs, stationary CMMs, and hand-held measurement devices. By forming the Portable Metrology Group, we can better serve our customer base in the mobile metrology arena, and get the appropriate technical information into their hands."

The Hexagon Portable Metrology Group also introduces new product literature featuring their comprehensive offering of articulating arms, laser trackers, theodolites, wireless probes, and rapid non-contact scanning technologies.
