Case Studies: Meeting the Challenges of 3-D Design
The hydraulic casting components made at Rexroth Guss, the subsidiary of Bosch Rexroth AG, are characterized by complex, core-intensive construction and many free-form surfaces. These costly parts, made of cast iron or spheroidal graphite iron, are invariably designed in 3-D. The transition from 2-D to 3-D design some years ago also prompted the quality department to look for an appropriate measuring solution.
