A good tool for high-precision measurement: portable coordinate measuring machine

Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine refer to a square portable measuring instrument with a mobile measuring instrument that can express geometric shapes, lengths, and circumferential graduations within a hexahedral space. It can measure three or more coordinates in x, y, z ( It is customary to measure one axis of a circular turntable as one coordinate).

The portable coordinate measuring machine can detect the workpiece according to the probe system within the three-dimensional measurable space, return point data on the workpiece surface, and calculate various geometric shapes, dimensions, etc. through the three-coordinate software system (such as AC-DMIS). Put the measured part into its allowed measurement space, accurately measure the values of the points on the surface of the measured part at three coordinate positions in the space, process the coordinate values of these points through computer data, and fit them to form measurement elements, such as circles., sphere, cylinder, cone, curved surface, etc., the shape, position tolerance and other geometric quantity data can be obtained through mathematical calculation.

Main features Of Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine

Completely free to move

Since this device has a support-free structure and data transmission is wireless, users can freely move the measuring device around the workpiece to be measured. Furthermore, there is no physical connection between the optical sensor and the probe handle to avoid mechanical wear.

Automatic coordinate alignment adjustment

Users can use two parts coordinate alignment methods: dynamic and static modes, without the need for probe calibration, which can reduce human operating errors by 85%. Both sensor and workpiece can be moved during the measurement process without alignment, allowing for maximum flexibility and significant time savings.

Expansion of measurement range

The measurement range can be dynamically expanded without additional alignment, reconstruction of the coordinate system or leapfrog. The equipment can reposition itself as the work to be measured moves, and can automatically and continuously capture the measurement coordinate system. After the workpiece is moved, there is no need to recalibrate the probe to realign the data.

Application Of Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine

     Mainly used for boxes, frames, gears, cams, worm gears, worms, blades, curves, curved surfaces, etc. in machinery, automobiles, aviation, military industry, furniture, tool prototypes, machines, tooling and other small and medium-sized accessories, molds and other industries. Measurement can also be used in industries such as electronics, hardware, and plastics to precisely detect the size, shape, and geometric tolerances of workpieces, thereby completing tasks such as part inspection, appearance measurement, and process control.

Precautions For Using Portable Coordinate Measuring Machine

1. Before lifting the workpiece, return the probe to the origin of the coordinates to reserve a large space for the lifting position; the workpiece must be lifted smoothly and must not hit any component of the coordinate measuring machine.

2.Install the parts correctly. Before installation, ensure that the isothermal requirements of the parts and the measuring machine are met. Under constant temperature conditions, place the workpiece to be measured more than four hours in advance.

3. Establish a correct coordinate system and ensure that the established coordinate system meets the requirements of the drawing to ensure that the measured data is accurate.

4. When the program is programmed to run automatically, it is necessary to prevent interference between the probe and the workpiece, so attention must be paid to increasing the inflection point.

5. For some large and heavy molds and inspection tools, the workbench should be hoisted down in time after the measurement is completed to prevent the workbench from being in a load-bearing state for a long time.
