With plastic gears, often all teeth have to be measured due to the manufacturing process. Computed tomography allows the entire workpiece to be captured in a single measuring process, thus achieving an enormous time advantage. Using the CT data, gear […]

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 […]
