What is the volumetric accuracy of your machine?  

Our equipment(Patent pending) can compensate for errors to achieve maximum performance.

The ASME B5.54 standard specifies 4 diagonal measurements to determine volumetric accuracy.  Diagonal measurement are affected by all error components, including squareness and straightness errors.

Below is a plot of 4-body diagonals using only linear compensation; the volumetric error is 0.008 in.





Below is a plot of 4-body diagonals with volumetric
compensation; the volumetric error is 0.002 in.


SAVE TIME AND MONEY!

Volumetric calibration & compensation in 4 easy setups by your regular machine operator in as little as 2 to 4 hours
for a working volume smaller than 1 cubic meter. The Conventional approach takes about 5 times longer and requires a highly trained specialist.

  • Linear calibration & compensation may not be enough; frequently occurring squareness and straightness errors may be large causing volumetric errors.

  • Volumetric calibration & compensation improves machine accuracy by compensating for squareness, straightness and linear errors.

  • The new Optodyne measurement technique is a major advancements for the use of  LDDM technology.

  • New Optodyne Windows™ software will automatically generate up to 18 compensation files, including 6 bi-directional linear errors and 12 bi-directional straightness errors.

  • Compensation files are available for controllers controllers such as Giddings & Lewis, Milltronics, Siemens 840 & 840D, Fanuc 15, Fanuc 16, and many others.
