This situation pops up quite regularly when a relatively simple feature such as the diameter of a hole in a machined part doesn’t appear to be right when the part is at the assembly stage of manufacture. Like similar disputes, the finger pointing begins and compromises are made but the problem doesn’t go away.
There is a long-standing practice in the computer aided inspection industry that includes CMMs to report in-tolerance values in green and out-of-tolerance values in red.
AM production enables the creation of parts not possible with traditional technologies through new design concepts, new materials, and new applications, but still presents challenges.
Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies continuously blaze the trail of what’s possible for part design. As such, reliably and accurately inspecting the latest parts has become increasingly complex.
The first half of 2020 found manufacturers having to pivot in the face of unprecedented challenges. Many had to halt production or, at the very least, slow production due to decreased demand and onsite worker limits.
In this application case study, we look at how a manufacturer of precision optical manufacturing and metrology equipment uses collaborative robots and a new robotic gripper/caliper to provide a solution that helps its customers optimize quality control measurements in the quality assurance area of their factory.
The MetraSCAN BLACKTM, the newest addition to Creaform’s MetraSCAN 3D® lineup, is the fastest, most accurate portable 3D scanner and optical CMM for demanding quality control applications.
Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), vision systems, the trusty micrometer—no manufacturer would argue the importance of traditional dimensional metrology equipment, but the fact remains that the tried and true sometimes comes up lacking.
WENZEL Group announces its close technological and commercial partnership with Metrologic Group. Metrologic Group software solutions are available in a version adapted to WENZEL CMM and Portable Measuring Arms with a focus on universality, performance and point cloud inspection.
