The new generation of our 3D-Measuring Machines SIGMA / TETA is characterized in particular by the highest precision, robustness, and the fact that it is to a large extent maintenance-free. All guides are manufactured from precious granite and lapped with the highest precision. Upon request, ceramic guides of the highest quality can be supplied as well. Thus the measuring machine gains in dynamics and rigidity. The thermal stability and high precision of the guides guarantee the most accurate measuring results, even without the use of software compensation. Double passive vibration damping is integrated in the devices as a standard. Upon request, the machines can be equipped with active vibration damping through air spring insulators. This improves the damping of low frequency vibrations in particular. Our consistent modular component system allows the combination of any axis lengths. We would be pleased to
produce your individually tuned measuring machine for you.
Reliability and Precision at a Top Price
As a standard, optimized air bearing precision guides of all axes are enclosed. All guideways are thus protected against damaging, dirt, and direct thermal influences. Especially the solid covering of the two table guides offers optimal protection against damaging during the loading and unloading of the
CMM. Highly dynamic servo drives and highly rigid belt drives free from wear guarantee an optimal positioning performance.
Your Advantages: The 3D-Measurement-Machine SIGMA / TETA
Large Sleeve Diameter
thus optimal support against rotation around the Z-axis. Ideally suited for long probe styli. Also, finely controlled, pneumatic weight counterbalance of the Z-axis.
All probe systems (touch-triggered, scanning, and optical) by Renishaw as well as the associated change magazines can be used. Point and surface lasers are also supported.
Belt Drives in all Axes
Belt drives crossed by steel cords guarantee the highest rigidity at the lowest wear.
That makes the measuring machine largely maintenance-free.
Highest Precision, Robustness, Thermal Stability, and High Rigidity
are achieved through precious guide materials such as granite or ceramics. Optimized air bearings provide perfect, mechanical accuracy.
Double Passive Vibration Damping
is integrated in the lower frame as a standard. Thus, the measuring machine can be utilized ideally in areas close to production. Active vibration damping through
pneumatic damping systems can also be adapted.
Covered Guideway
Protection against dirt and thermal influences. The covered table guide also protects against damaging when loading the machine.
"Click and Control" Measuring has never been easier
The new measuring software Metrolog XG is ideally suited for the measurement of all geometries, freeform surfaces, and dynamic scanning. Measuring elements can be clicked and measured directly on the screen. In doing so, the generation of the measuring program takes place completely automatically in the background. The traverse paths are displayed on the screen and can be easily adjusted by the user if need be. Measuring against a set of data is turned into child's play. Extensive strategies for the measurement of point aggregates, individual surfaces, or groups of surfaces are available. The results are displayed directly online on the screen and can also be processed as a color mapping. Thus, the user quickly recognizes immediate problem zones. Other highlights are the automatic probe calibration, an interactive online help, graphic collision protection, a simple log editor, a clearly arranged element database, integrated log masters in graphic and table form, and the import of all common CAD formats such as CATIA, UNIGRAPHICS, ProE, Parasolid, VDA, IGES...
