Case Studies: Five-Axis Machining Meets Five-Axis Inspection
Turbocam International supplies both production and prototype bladed parts to aerospace, automotive and industrial turbomachinery OEMs. Part precision and uniformity are critical in providing dynamic balance, directed airflow and long, reliable service at high rotational speeds. However, efficient inspection of ever-increasing numbers of complex parts was frustrated by slow, tedious, stop-and-go measurement inspection on a legacy 3+2 axis CMM.
