Affordable Automated Shop Floor Inspection
Fowler High Precision and Verisurf Software partner to offer a lightweight direct computer control (DCC) coordinate measuring machine (CMM) loaded with zCAT software. Because the combination enables in-process inspection, the same employee making the part can now measure the part.
Two Measurement Solutions from Mitutoyo
The multisensor MiSCAN Vision System is a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) with a microscopic-level scanning probe. The compact MiSTAR 555 is a space-saving in-line or near-line CNC CMM designed for high-speed, high-accuracy measurements with assurance from 10° C to 40° C.
CMMs Increase Productivity in Specialized Manufacturing Sectors
Hexagon’s Leitz Reference BX coordinate measuring machine (CMM) accelerates blade and glass measurement up to 50%, addressing long-standing challenges faced by aAerospace and consumer electronics manufacturers. Multisensor 3D OPTIV M CMM gives manufacturers of small and medium precision parts greater configuration flexibility.
Multisensor Metrology Speeds Automotive Component Inspection
The Hungarian automotive control system manufacturer Continental processes 1,500 inspection reports every year. Cycle times are twice as fast with a LK Metrology ALTERA 8.7.6 coordinate measuring machine (CMMs) that has a laser scanner and a touch probe.
Independent CMM Calibration Business Launched
API launches Independent Coordinate Measuring Machine Certification and Recalibration Service including 21-degree error-map creation.
Automated Optical CMM with Cobot
The optical µCMM from Bruker Alicona can measure extremely tight tolerances with high accuracy using a six-axis cobot arm to automatically pick, place, measure and sort (ok/not ok) parts in production.
Under Contract: Automated CMM Operations
A manual inspection process using an arm is almost impossible to replicate, so shops hire Laser Scanning to run automated CMM programs for them that are highly repeatable.
