… and you have your machining processes under control!
The measuring system MikroCAD for the measurement of cutting edges, ensures reproducibility of the measurement results, independent of the operator. A further substantial advantage is the planar acquisition of the cutting edge geometries in only a matter of seconds. This image is an original copy of the recorded cutting edge, so that a precise statement can be made about the cutting edge on the basis of a comparison. The acquired measuring data can subsequently be used for the quality assurance and optimisation of the tools as well as the machining process.
High resolution 3d measuring data of a new and a used cutting edge
Difference representation and evaluation between a new and a used milling cutting edge
The unique and user-friendly software module ODSCAD-Schneidkanten is for the automatic evaluation of blade geometries with the following decisive advantages:
Determination of symmetry and flattening on the cutting edge radius (K-Factor)
Automatic wear measurement (incl. CAD-based nominal-actual value comparison)
Automatic alignment of 3D data and evaluation of all profile lines including calculation of mean radius
Statistically safe information regarding the edge geometries possible, in the contrary to the simple linear profile measurement
More than 1000 profile lines within one measurement
Very high reproducibility since the user influence on the results are practically void
Simple handling by manufacturing personnel
Advantages for the user
Increase of a tools life span of up to 100%
Quality improvement and higher process reliability
Time saving of up to 95% in comparison to the conventional tactile metrology
Usage in production area
Technical Advantages
Area based measurement of changes on cutting edges down to 2µm
Fast measuring time of only 3 seconds
Application near manufacturing possible
Fast and easy positioning
No minute micro-adjustments necessary since the 3D data is automatically aligned
Measuring field size from 0,7 x 0,5 mm² up to 4x3mm²
