Part inspection and setup on turning center
Machine tool field is in continual technologic evolution. The demand for increasingly complex parts produced using multifunctional machines, involve the need of higher performance technologies.
Conditions:
Reaching competitiveness means to have the production process under full control:
- Part co-ordinate set-up
- Part dimensional control directly on the machine
- Machined part form inspection
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 turning centres.
- Big turning centres require probes with a wide transmission range, which can be achieved by using radio transmission technology.
- The best results can be obtained using software cycles for part set-up and part inspection, and by controlling the measurement/form of sculptured surfaces.
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
- No need for CMM
