What CMM Technology does

CMM Technology is a privately-held US specialty industrial services and distribution company founded in 1979 and headquartered in San Clemente, California. The company sells coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) — both new (Coord3, LK) and certified pre-owned (Brown & Sharpe, Mitutoyo, Numerex) — and provides the full lifecycle of post-sale services: A2LA-accredited calibration, repair, relocation, retrofits, and probe/accessory supply. Its field service technician network covers 22 US states without travel-expense charges, a positioning the company claims as an industry first. Service operations are anchored by A2LA ISO/IEC 10725 accreditation delivering NIST-traceable calibrations under ISO 9001, ISO 10012-1, and ANSI/NCSI Z540.

The product portfolio combines hardware, software, and consumables. Hardware includes Renishaw motorized probe heads (PH10 Plus series at $16,425-$17,365), manual indexable heads (MH8, MIH), and touch probes (TP20, TP2, TP200, TP7M). Software bundles feature CMM-Manager from QxSoft, Verisurf CMM Master, and MODUS CNC/DCC, all positioned for retrofit and new-installation workflows. Accessories span M2/M3 styli ($11-$140), Tsunami air filtration systems ($450-$2,265), Renishaw checking gauges ($3,229-$4,050), origin/datum spheres, true-position locators, and fixturing, alongside a Repair-By-Exchange (RBE) probe service with six-month warranties. Pricing is publicly listed for most SKUs, with larger CMM units on a request-for-quote basis.

The go-to-market is enterprise field sales executed through direct phone, email, and an e-commerce-enabled website, with named sales contact Matt Bradley. The customer base sits in precision manufacturing — aerospace, automotive, medical device, and general precision parts — and the company calibrated 2,000 CMMs in the most recent reporting year, indicating meaningful recurring service volume. The company is independent, with no disclosed funding rounds, acquisitions, or parent-company relationships, and reports 51-100 employees. Revenue is generated through one-time equipment sales, recurring calibration contracts, retrofit project work, and consumable/accessory replenishment — a diversified mix for a sub-$25M-revenue specialty industrial business.
