Engaging an audience on the technical aspects of quality work can be a challenge: inspection, audits, and measurement systems analysis are hardly the stuff of a lecture that you will find gripping and inspirational.
As the skills gap continues to impact the manufacturing field, skilled CMM users and programmers are harder to come by. In response, CMM companies have built the tools to be easier to operate and program.
Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) can automate the measurement process and consequently eliminate quality inspection bottlenecks. The highly adaptable tools can measure a wide range of parts and materials and quickly adapt to production changes.
PCMMs automated with the proper inspection software deliver user-prompted, repeatable inspection plans that can be quickly and easily set up and executed using virtually any 3D measurement technology across the manufacturing enterprise.
Original equipment manufacturers can help to minimize supply chain woes by regularly using metrology equipment such as coordinate measuring machines (CMMs).
Here’s a thought: what if you could also perform multiple measuring tasks at the same time, on the same part with one machine, right there on the factory floor?
Engineers have historically used 2D drawings to convey product manufacturing information, even though they design products in 3D. But as quality control has become even more important, and as parts and components are becoming more complex to measure, the demand for automatic measurement programming has grown.
How do you select the right shop-floor CMM for your production line? Making an informed decision means understanding application needs, what solutions can meet your needs and how to “future proof” your selection.
3D measurement arms, also referred to as articulating arms, are portable coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) that pinpoint and record the location of a probe and record the results through software.
The quality norms of the past are being shattered by another evolution of CMM technologies arriving on the scene. The reason? Manufacturing is changing at its core.
