Portable
CMM Arm Run By
3-D CAD Software To Improve
Product Quality
Departmental
inspection sheets follow all projects through the shop requiring
periodical dimensional checks. In addition, our portable articulating
CMM arm permits surface deviation comparisons from CAD files. Pattern
and raw casting quality inspections are also taken.
Reverse engineering has been accomplished by
collecting multiple points from prototype parts and transforming
them into 3-D models. Implementation of a 3-D surface measurement
capability based on data collected by the portable CMM measuring
arm has significantly improved the product quality, reduced pattern
and casting variation and contributed to improved manufacturing
productivity.
