What CMMXYZ does
CMMXYZ (Canadian Measurement-Metrology Inc.) is an independent North American supplier of coordinate measuring machine (CMM) solutions, founded in 1986 and headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, with 11-50 employees. The firm sells new and used CMMs, runs an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited calibration laboratory, and delivers measurement services, retrofits, training, and contract metrology staffing. It holds Canadian Controlled Goods Program (CGP) registration and ISO 9001 certification, and serves manufacturers across aerospace, automotive and EV, medical devices, defence, energy, tool and die, and rail/transit.
The product stack spans bridge CMMs, gantry CMMs, portable measurement arms, vision and multisensor systems, and higher-end 5-axis architectures featuring Renishaw REVO and PH20 heads. The firm is an authorized distributor and service partner for multiple OEMs (Renishaw, Zeiss, Hexagon, OGP, ShapeGrabber) and bundles PolyWorks (InnovMetric) inspection software through a hosted MyPolyWorks customer portal for licensing, training, and support. A self-serve online training portal on Thinkific productizes the firm's metrology curriculum, and a YouTube and LinkedIn content footprint extends the firm's reach to technicians and engineers across North America.
CMMXYZ operates a hardware-plus-services revenue model: capital-equipment sales (new and refurbished CMMs sourced through its position as the self-described largest used CMM stockist globally) plus recurring revenue from calibration, retrofits, training, and contract staffing. Pricing is quote-based and enterprise-tilted, with cross-border service routes covering Canadian and US manufacturing facilities, which is a structural advantage as North American supply chains (notably EV batteries and re-shored automotive and aerospace work) demand continent-wide calibration and measurement support.
