Halving cycle times in glass bottle mould machining
Opening its doors in 1993, this family-run shop provides much-needed glass bottle machining and repair services for glass manufacturers. Looking to reduce production cycle times and costs, Omega Enterprises turned to Hexagon 3D scanning technology and CAD CAM software to innovate machining processes.
VISI Helps Mouldmaker Rise To New Challenges
Alpha Precision say they push the boundaries of what’s possible in precision engineering, through state-of-the-art software. In particular, this helped them through the recession in their native Irish Republic by giving them a competitive edge to work in high-end markets.
Sensors solutions for increased measuring accuracy and flexibility
Creative Composites has established its reputation as a leading components manufacturer by providing its customers the best in design, manufacturing and service. So, when the company upped investment in guaranteeing its customers the highest levels of manufacturing accuracy, throughput and efficiency, it turned to Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence for a multisensor CMM and software package.
Burr-Free, First Time
Company Vorwerk check mould inserts and slides while still clamped on the machine tool using m&h’s touch probes and 3D Form Inspect software. A mould manufactured this way, with two sets of ten slides, was burr-free first time and released for volume production after the very first sample.
Probing Away Set-Up Times
Using Touch Probes and Software from M&H, Havlat in Zittau is able to significantly reduce set-up times and achieve secure, consistent manufacturing.
A Quantum Leap
Using touch probes and software for measuring workpieces while still clamped, the Pistol GmbH of Zwenkau manufactures tools with extremely fine structures for wax and ceramic injection in investment foundries.
Small and Fine
Small and fine, this is the motto used in precision manufacturing at the East German company miTec. Moulds and tools for the manufacture of precision parts and precision components with microstructures are checked for tolerance compliance using m&h hardware and software while still clamped on the machine. This saves 50% of manual work.
Temperature Locked Out
The temperatures of the machining spindles cause considerable thermal growth to the touch probe and falsify the measured values, especially in Z direction. With the thermally insulated THERMO-LOCK® touch probe from m&h, Krones AG in Neutraubling can refer to stable measuring conditions and reliable measured values.
We Simply Got Better
With touch probes, software and Tool Setter, the aluminium mould maker KonForm in Lichtenstein has harmonized its production and met customers needs. After careful comparison with the competition, the products by m&h were chosen.
Economical Quality for All
By implementing a server licence for their m&h measuring software, Geberit has standardised the software of three plants in two countries. This has made the same functions available to all the people involved. The objective was to harmonise manufacturing equipment throughout all plants, make better use of licences within the group and reduce upkeep and maintenance expenses.
Measuring for Clear Vision
An Italian manufacturer of injection moulds provides for clear vision in production through measuring workpieces while still clamped on the machining centres. This is achieved by using German m&h touch probes and software on Japanese machine tools.
Probing Deep Inside
Previously, contours deep inside workpieces could only be measured with special gauges. The modular 20.41 probe from m&h enables precision measuring to microns at almost any depth. ARBURG highly appreciate the production reliability brought by this probe.
Fully Automated Robotic Cell for Integrated Quality Measurement
Isolit-Bravo was founded in 1921 at Jablonné nad Orlicí near the Polish border as the first Bakelite mill in Bohemia. After the 1960s, the rising popularity of plastic forced the company to transform itself, changing its production, buying new machines, and beginning to mould plastic parts.
Mould Complete with Measuring Protocol
Measuring workpieces on the machine has become standard practice at the Saxon milling service provider Hofmann & Engel. The possibility to log work directly on the machine has helped win several orders from mould making and single component manufacturers.
Edgecam Waveform Plays Key Role in Two Product Launches For Fenn Tool
Founded by owner Peter Fenn in 1982, Essex-based Fenn Tool has developed into what is now one of the largest independent cutting tool distributors in the UK.
Unceasing Dedication to Product Quality
Tianjin Motor Dies Co. Ltd., founded in 1995, celebrated its twentieth anniversary in April 2015. Currently, Tianjin Motor Dies has more than ten plants in China and has even set up manufacturing facilities in Germany. The company, one of China's largest motor die manufacturers, has now begun to impact the global dies market in earnest.
Anything But A Bottleneck Coordinate Metrology in Toolmaking
The Corvaglia Group based in Eschlikon in eastern Switzerland is a top performer in every sense. The company is a specialist manufacturer of inexpensive caps and closures for PET bottles. Along with plastic injection moulding, toolmaking has a major role to play at Corvaglia.
Cannot Do Without It
Ballerstedt, the renowned plastic-injection moulding company, uses probes and Form Inspect software from m&h when constructing their moulds. Mould inserts can now be made to fit accurately and to be easily replaceable. This shortens downtimes and increases productivity.
Eliminating the See-Saw
Innovation and customer benfit, these are the maxims that have established mould maker Hofmann of Lichtenfels enviable reputation. At Hofmann, measuring workpieces while still clamped on the machine has been an everyday occurrence for over seven years. Using touch probes and software from m&h, Hofmann has improved quality and reliability of the production process while speeding up the manufacturing cycle at the same time.
Enormous Time Gains
Measuring contours on the machine tool not only ensures quality but also considerably shortens set-up times and speeds up manufacturing cycles. A mould making and jobbing company reports its experiences using m&h 3D Form Inspect software and proves that quality assurance also reduces manufacturing time.
Five-Axis Parts in Series
The mould production of Color Metal produces mould inserts in an automated facility with a large pallet storage on five-axis machining centres by Grob. For this purpose, the tools are calibrated by an m&h laser and checked for tool breakage.
High Accuracy combined with Flexible Applications
At Jochum, a mould manufacturer, tool length measurements and blade fracture checks are performed on a removable Tool Setter by m&h, even in unmanned shifts. The Tool Setter communicates with the control via the same infrared receiver as the probe.
Let's Do a Quick Calibration
The contract manufacturer SHW Bearbeitungstechnik GmbH has equipped its machining and turning/milling machines with radio-wave touch probes by m&h and regularly calibrates the machine tables with it. That provides accuracy, and the probes save set-up times and allow for an accelerated and secure production of mostly large and complex cast parts.
Measuring for Clear Vision
An Italian manufacturer of injection moulds provides for clear vision in production through measuring workpieces while still clamped on the machining centres. This is achieved by using German m&h touch probes and software on Japanese machine tools.
More Speed and More Accuracy With Laser Tool Setters
For years, model and mould construction has been measuring using probes and software by m&h. Now tools are also measured in the machine using m&h laser tool setters – with significant improvements in manufacturing.
Ingenuity and Courage
An ideal partnership exists when all involved parties benefit from each other. This has been achieved in the partnership between Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, a leading provider of technical measurement and production solutions, and Zimmer & Kreim GmbH & Co KG.
