Part inspection and setup on lathe
Machine tool field is in continual technologic evolution The demand for increasingly precise parts, mass production and also fast set-up, involve the need of higher performance technologies.
Conditions:
Reaching competitivity means to have the production process under full control:
- Part co-ordinate set-up
- Part dimensional control directly on the machine
Solution:
Marposs probes offer the best solution to optimize time and quality of machining.
- Infra-red probe systems offer the best compromise between machining times and quality for small and medium lathes.
- Big lathes require probes with a wide transmission range, which can be achieved by using radio transmission technology
- The best results can be obtained implementing software cycles for part set-up and part inspection.
Benefits:
- Reduced machining and control times
- Raising production efficiency
- Real time detection of the part positioning
- Reduced rejects
- Parts can be measured whilst clamped on the machine
