Contributing To Speed This Contribution To Speed Is Perfectly Demonstrated By The Revolutionary REVO Five-axis Measuring Head And Probe System Which Can Improve Inspection Throughput By Up To 900% On Machines Previously Fitted With Three-axis Scanning Sys.
One User Of The System Is GE Aviation, which Since Introducing REVO Into Its Large Fan Blisk Cell Has Seen Inspection Time Of The Airfoils Fall Dramatically From 16 Hours To Just 5 Hours.
The Additional Capacity Created With REVO Has Enabled A Higher Degree Of Flexibility With Re-inspection, resulting In An Overall Cycle Time Reduction Of Several Days For This Part, and Leading To Lower Inventories And More Reliable Deliveries.
At Control, renishaw Will Also Showcase A Range Of Other Products That Enhance Speed Of Manufacture And Measurement.
For Machine Performance Optimisation, the Renishaw XL-80 Is A Compact Laser Interferometer Measurement System Combining Portability, performance And Ease Of Use For Calibration Routines, ± of With 4 Metres/sec Speeds And 0.
5 Ppm Accuracy.
For Machine Designers, renishaws SiGNUM Non-contact RESM Angle Encoder Has A Large Through-hole Making It Ideal For High-speed Feedback On Machine Tool Rotary Axes, and Is Now Available With FANUC Serial Communications.
For Applications That Require The Highest Accuracy, the REXM Angle Encoder Offers New Levels Of Angular Metrology, 1 Arc Second Total Installed Accuracy of ± of With Better Than, zero Coupling Losses And Exceptional Repeatability.
Inspection On Machine Tools Inspection Applications On CNC Machine Tools Continue To Grow.
Renishaws New MP250 Touch Probe For Grinding Machines And RMP600 Touch Probe With Radio Signal Transmission For Machining Centres Enable Users To Carry Out The High Precision 3D Measurement Of Complex Contoured Surfaces.
Both Probes Incorporate Renishaws Patented Rengage Strain Gauge Technology To Maintain Performance Even When The Application Requires Long Styli.
