The CUBIT coordinate gaging module is a 3D-measuring instrument that provides constant-contact scanning capability, which is usually found in a gage lab, to the shop floor.
Featuring the company's Sceptre probe and data analysis software technology, the module can be used in a variety of complex applications that include gears, turbine blades, cams, jet engine disks and components, and plastic and medical parts.
The module offers these features and functions:
- Measurement of standard CMM geometric dimensioning and tolerances
- Collect and analyze contoured surfaces
- Automatic CNC operation or joystick control
- Printed or electronic report generation
- Electronic process control feedback
- Three-axis analog probe
- High-accuracy single-point and self centering data taking
- Zero force interpolation, which compensates for part deflection
- The ability to scan unknown shapes up to 12-mm/s (0.5-in./s)
- Self-centering while scanning unknown shapes
- Reverse engineering of freeform shapes (CAD data files)
In addition, the module has a shop-hardened design; a portable, bench mountable transfer line station; and built-in process gage that can be networked to add more modules.
