Measuring in the machine
The reliable geometric stability of the RPT machines enables quality control of the machined workpieces directly in the machine. Roeders offers procedures for geometric precision control of the machines, which check their measuring accuracy. In this way, the extra step of workpiece quality control in a separate measuring room can be saved for many applications. The measurement protocols and measurement strategies were developed together with well-known providers of measuring equipment.
Renishaw’s Productivity+™ is a possible solution for operating the Roeders machine for quality control, e.g. by measuring standard geometries like roundness, evenness, distance etc.
Alternatively the software INSPECT from HEXAGON may be utilized.
