CMM Software for Measurement, Programming, Simulation, Analysis and Reporting
LK Metrology has released Camio 2024, the latest version of its coordinate measuring machine (CMM) software for measurement, programming, simulation, analysis and reporting. It features upgraded performance in several key areas to enhance safety, increase productivity in the quality control department and shorten the lead-time from component production to completion of inspection, according to company officials.
LK Metrology Portable Measuring Arms
All 34 portable measuring arms offered in 6-axis touch-probing and 7-axis multi-sensor variants by LK Metrology, Castle Donington, are now supplied as standard with a 4.5 inch diameter mounting ring to allow the unit to sit on a larger base, rather than that provided by the previous 3.5 inch ring. The result of having this extra stability is that the new Version 3 FREEDOM Arms are capable of measuring to higher precision. A mounting ring adapter can be supplied if an existing user already owns an LK tripod or stand with a 3.5 inch mount. Mechanical, magnetic and vacuum fixing alternatives are available.
Soaring to Success: How Laser Tracker Tech Enhances Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul Operations in the Aerospace Industry
3D laser scanning tools, like laser trackers in general, are helping radically improve the safety of an assortment of vehicles that take to the sky or space.
Why 3D scan? - full field data set
One of the major advantages of 3D scanning is it creates “full field data set” or sometime it’s called “digital twin”. The CMM has done a great job when it comes to collecting just enough data accurately and reliably for dimensional inspection purposes. What the CMM is focused on is to verify pre-defined features/dimensions to determine if parts are good or bad. However, when things go wrong and more information is needed to further analyze the root causes it takes a lot of efforts and tedious work to get enough useful information.
