Optimising Medical Tool Inspection
Medical device manufacturers often require quality checks of dimensional characteristics on parts having different materials that require non-contact measurement. Whether they are inspecting a part created in-house or trying to validate parts from a supplier, manufacturers require a flexible solution that will allow them to measure all kinds of complex features.
Efficient Inspection of Screw Compressor Parts
As one of the most widely used air compressor models on the market, screw compressors are in high demand. With tight tolerances, these parts require an inspection solution that delivers both high accuracy and the fastest possible scanning speeds for maximised throughput.
Quality Assurance of Orthopaedic Implants
The development dynamic of the medical industry is nearly without parallel in any other industry. New materials, production methods, and optimised designs drive innovation in orthopaedic implants for hips, knees and the spinal column. These products are characterised by high geometric accuracy and surface quality, long service life and biocompatibility.
Quality Assurance of Dental Implants
Manufacturers of dental implants are confronted with high quality standards and strict regulatory requirements with regard to the safety of their products.During production, each implant must be inspected using a reliable process to make sure it complies with the tightest of tolerances and product liability requirements. This includes in-depth documentation of the production process along with secure, tamper proof storage of the measurement results.
Quality Assurance of Components for Electric Motors
The requirements for powertrain components are forever evolving thanks in part to the fast progression of electro-mobility applications. In many applications it is important to optimise the electric motor in terms of efficiency, quality and costs. New motor concepts are required, and the rotor lamination stacks composed of individual electrical steel laminations are of particular importance, because they have a decisive influence on the achievable efficiency of an electric motor.
Quality Assurance of Electronic Components
Lead frames are important functional elements of electrotechnical applications. They are cut from a continuous strip of material by progressive composite punches and further processed into metal-plastic composite parts during subsequent procedures. Lead frames can be designed with extremely fine web and slot widths for automated assembly with SMD electronic components.
Premier Class Calibration
Gauges and master parts must be calibrated on a regular basis in order to be used efficiently. The continuing return to national standards is a guarantee for reliable, standard compliant and reproducible measurement results within every manufacturing company. The high-accuracy Leitz Infinity and Leitz Ultra coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) provide the ideal bases for these highly-complex measuring tasks.
Contactless Measurement of Large Lenses
Lenses are precision components, where the smallest deviation from the target geometry results in a change in quality. Quality control can only accompany production if a high-accuracy measuring centre such as the Leitz PMM-Xi from Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence is used, particularly with large lenses with a diameter greater than 200 mm.
