Part Scanning on Grinder
The combination of technical know-how in the contact gauging field and touch technology produced the new G25 probe, able not only to perform continuous scans of surfaces, but also to give a skip signal for part positioning and checking. The probe's strong points include compact dimensions, stability and extreme gauging speed, allowing a considerable reduction in cycle times compared with traditional point-by-point scanning applications. The product was developed for gauging on grinding machines or machining centres, whose serial production cycles require part checks in the machine, if necessary allowing reworking without new positioning.
There are countless applications for a scanning probe. Generally being able to check each single part in the machine and compare it with a reference master is a considerable advantage in reducing cycle times. This applies to applications for grinding gears and for analysing and checking generic splines on work centres. Gear grinding application.
