ZEISS O-INSPECT doesn’t skimp on when it comes to software, because with ZEISS CALYPSO you use our universal measuring software that is also used on portal measuring machines such as ZEISS CONTURA.

ZEISS CALYPSO impresses with its intuitive operating concept that combines functional diversity and flexibility. Programming is performed by clicking on the desired measuring elements on the CAD model with the mouse or even more simply by probing, regardless of the sensor, and automatic measuring element recognition.

Various software options offer the right tools for special requirements, such as the standard curve functionality of the O-INSPECT or the integrated measurement report software tool ZEISS PiWeb reporting.

The tailstock from ZEISS makes it possible to clamp shaft-like measurement objects between centers. For example, gear shafts, worm shafts, crankshafts, camshafts or rotors can be clamped without deformation and measured in the best possible way. Due to the ideal accessibility, complete measurements can thus be realized in one clamping position. ZEISS TS shows its strength through an interchangeable interface, through which the tailstock can be quickly set up in the measuring volume if required. In combination with the high-precision air-bearing rotary table ZEISS RT-AB-600, a universal coordinate measuring machine can thus be quickly and flexibly expanded into a specialized shaft measuring machine. ZEISS TS is available in two z-sizes as the TS-7 and TS-10 variants, perfectly aligned with all members of ZEISS PRISMO family.

The GEAR PRO option for ZEISS CALYPSO enables gear metrology on coordinate measuring machines. The analytical 3D gear model and the graphic-supported input windows make measuring with GEAR PRO highly effective.

ZEISS CONTURA enables you to be prepared today for the measurement requirements of tomorrow: The new generation is equipped with the mass technology and, thanks to a common interface, enables simple switching between different sensor technologies in just a few simple steps. In addition to innovative options such as measuring in four axes using a flexible rotary table, an automated probe changing system or the HTG option (for larger temperature ranges), the device also stands for first-class performance, ergonomics and future security.

The DuraMax RT measuring machine from Zeiss Industrial Metrology is designed for in-line process control of gear wheels. Now equipped with a rotary table, the compact horizontal-arm measuring machine uses a precision system to turn the workpiece with the corresponding side facing the stylus. This enables the stylus system to capture information such as the geometry of the gear wheel in a simple process without repeatedly traveling to a new position, the company says. The rotary table can be freely positioned on the measuring plate and removed in just a few steps. Equipped with Zeiss’s measuring software, the DuraMax RT can also be used as a universal measuring machine when needed. Its benefits include a small footprint and lower power consumption, the company says.

ZEISS has added a tailstock to its PRISMO range of coordinate measuring machines. Exhibited at the recent CONTROL exhibition the Tailstock TS series provides for the clamping of ‘shaft-like’ measuring objects between centers providing deformation-free clamping. The Tailstock offers stable clamping while measuring objects without interfering with access to contours on the shaft ends allowing complete part measuring in one orientation set-up.

Due to the user-guided ZEISS TargetTool software the Tailstock alignment goes fast and easy using the CMM itself for the measurements. The Tailstock Stylus System, in combination with the Live-View, guides the operator through the alignment steps and visualizes the actual position of the tailstock centers for alignment.

Increased efficiency, greater flexibility and cost effective are some of the highlights of the organisation’s sensor technologies. The ZEISS Rotos and the ZEISS Dotscan are the next generation of roughness sensors.

The metrology market is expected to reach at 1255.5 million dollars by the end of 2027, according to a report by Market Research Future. ZEISS is one of the major players in the metrology segment and is keen to create technologies for greater efficiency and accuracy. The company has enhanced its sensorsystems for faster, more flexible and more efficient measuring processes.

Utilised on coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), the new enhanced ZEISS Rotos roughness sensor offers one to carry out standard-compliant surface waviness and roughness inspections even on uneven or complex surfaces. The sensor also simplifies and speeds up the measurement of all surface parameters from the drawing in a single process step.

Flanked by three rotatable axes and multiple stylus arms, the sensor makes it convenient for the user to measure deep boreholes and difficult-to-reach surfaces. Tried and tested, the ZEISS Rotos proves to be the ideal system where the user can perform at-line roughness measurements as well as efficiently perform inspections on a single machine.

Usually inspecting sensitive, reflective and low-contrast surfaces is difficult but the company states that now users can perform this task in a short period of time via the ZEISS O-Inspect multisensor measuring machine. The new systems will now be incorporated with an interface for the ZEISS Dotscan chromatic-confocal white light sensor beginning from May 2018.

For different measuring ranges, the sensor is available in three sizes – 1, 3 and 10 mm. Also, to obtain an improved effect with the ZEISS Dotscan for optical scanning one can make use of a rotary table on the ZEISS O-Inspect. The measuring speed of the sensor, which is dependent on several factors, ranges from 100 to 150 mm per second.

As the sensor can be integrated in all interfaces, the operator can insert the probing system in the measuring software and capture the data points on the component by making use of the standard ZEISS Calypso user interface without any difficulty.

Innovative technologies are always appreciated as it helps players from the industry to improve their product quality in a shorter period of time. With diverse new technologies, ZEISS is surely heading in the right direction!

MAPLE GROVE, Minn., Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- It is now possible to inspect sensitive, reflective or low-contrast surfaces more quickly than ever before with the ZEISS O-INSPECT multisensor coordinate measuring machine. The new ZEISS DotScan chromatic-confocal white light sensor will be featured on the O-INSPECT CMM at IMTS (International Manufacturing Technology Show), booth E-135502, in Chicago, September 10-15.

With this new chromatic-confocal white light sensor, the operator can now choose between a regulated and unregulated mode when scanning. This means that, with the ZEISS DotScan, components can also be captured whose dimensions exceed the measuring range due to variations in the manufacturing process. With regulated scanning, the ZEISS DotScan always actively aligns itself with the center of the measuring range automatically, enabling it to capture all of a component"s surface points.

Operators can go beyond tactile sensor applications with the 4th axis rotary table on the ZEISS O-INSPECT and can now use it to optimum effect with the ZEISS DotScan for non-contact scanning. The measuring speed of the sensor, which is dependent on several factors, ranges from 100 to 150 mm per second.

The ZEISS DotScan sensor can be swapped in and out as needed, saving a lot of time and increasing flexibility. The sensor is available in three sizes for different measuring ranges: one, three and ten millimeters. In November 2018, all new ZEISS O-INSPECT multisensor measuring machine systems will come standard with an interface to use the new sensor.

Rotary table in market mainly includes 4 kinds of mechanism that is worm gear, roller cam, DD driver and harmonic structure. The following is the introduction:

1. worm gear: it’s one of  the most popular structrue in NC rotary table  because of its irreversibility and costs.The worm is generally made of bronze, but the wear resistance is poor. In order to improve the service life, some manufacturers use the alloy steel.

3.DD motor: it’s the most efficient rotary table with the highest precision. It has the highest precision because it has no mechanical structure, which is directly driven by motor , no reducer. It has high technical difficulty and high price. It is generally used for five axis machine tools.

We analyze these methods using different accessories and their influence on the uncertainty of calibration results. As a very important part of calibration procedure is a correct choice of the calibration mathematical model (interpolation curve force-hydraulic pressure and hydraulic pressure-force), there is a need to use a special software. Such is the developed software FORCE-401-S which permits to communicate the measurement line "load cell-amplifier-computer"; to choose the correct interpolation polynom; enable to compute the errors and uncertainty values and build the table of calibration results.
