With high speed and precision, workpieces can be fully captured by means of X-ray computed tomography. For measurements in parallel with production, however, this method has often been too slow. A new type of machine now combines the advantages of […]

A connector usually contains several stamped and bent parts that must be manufactured with high precision. In order to prove and document the required quality (and ultimately to optimize the process), Unimet has invested in four Werth Videocheck  multisensor measuring […]

For years, toolmaker Mauth had to calculate more time for measuring complicated form cutters than for their grinding process. With the new 3D coordinate measuring machine Scope Check S from Werth Messtechnik, the relationship has changed. The production-related measurement system […]
