Due to the complexity of components and high customer requirements in the “Contract Manufacturing Linz” business area, an air-conditioned measuring room was implemented and a 3D coordinate measuring machine purchased in the 2012 financial year. After several technical meetings with the relevant manufacturers, the decision was made in favor of the “Zeiss” brand.
Mr. Köck Peter and an employee from the mechanical production department spent several days immersing themselves in the complex “Calypso” control software for the measuring machine during the product training course. The interaction between the machine and optimally coordinated software enables the creation of measurement sequences with object-oriented programming and the selection of the features used in the design drawings. The technical possibilities range from single-point measurement to scanning a contour of measurement tasks. In addition, the measurement reports can be adapted to individual requirements.
With a measuring range – X = 1200 mm Y = 2400 mm Z = 1000 mm – the entire product range in the field of mechanical production is covered.
The following activities are carried out:
- Incoming goods inspections (comparative measurements)
- Monitoring of measuring equipment
- Monitoring of mechanical production (preventive measures)
- Programming and measuring components for sampling
Did you know that
- a normal human hair is between 0.05 and 0.07 millimeters thick ?
- With our 3D measuring machine, we achieve a measuring accuracy of 0.0019 millimeters!
- If you divide 1 human hair with a thickness of 0.06 millimeters into 30 parts, 1 part of it has approx. 0.002 millimeters and would correspond to the measuring accuracy of the machine.
- ATTENTION: Please do not try, because you won’t make it anyway!
- the optimum measuring room temperature is 20°C ?the temperature is controlled by air conditioning and for this reason it is very important that the measuring room is only opened when necessary in order to avoid fluctuations (the temperature has a very high influence on the measuring result)
With the implementation of the 3D coordinate measuring machine, we have achieved the framework conditions for the Champions League. Thanks to the outstanding commitment of our employees, we will reach the final and win.
Let’s get the title!
