Composites Keep A Big Machine Busy

On-machine inspection is part of the way this shop machines large composite structures efficiently.

Roundess Measuring Machine With High-Visibility Display Reduces Errors

The RA-10 Roundtest roundness measuring machine is said to combine comprehensive measurement capabilities, high accuracy and intuitive operation. With high throughput and a compact footprint, the machine is suited for manufacturers requiring inspection of small, cylindrical workpieces in the lab or for high-volume

Inspection Machine Measures Virtually Any Parameter

The genius 3 inspection machine with the pilot 3.0 vision system software features a graphical user interface and is capable of measuring virtually any parameter on any type of tool, the company says. Measurements of tool features, including assigning upper and lower tolerances, can be made from either an absolute

Multi-Sensor Measuring Capability

The Tesavisio 500 high accuracy, multi-sensor measuring system with PCDMIS software is available in two models, the Value and the Universal, to meet a range of measurement and inspection needs. These systems use a CMM bridge design on both models and are mounted on air bearings that are controlled by a newly desi

Vision System Allows Automated Inspection Of Bore Finish

Bores machined in brake master cylinders, connecting rods, injection systems, valves and similar components must have a quality surface finish to ensure effective performance. Conventional bore inspection techniques, however, typically require an operator to evaluate the finish. Operators may use a bore scope l

Data Collection Goes Wireless

About 25 years ago, the concept of data collection for process control took a major leap forward. This was about the time that a combination of electronic technology and economics allowed gaging to became digital. With a digital signal available, transferring information via cable directly from a gage or digital in
