Duramax scans everything April 2008
 
With DuraMax, Carl Zeiss is responding to customer demands for CNC scanning measuring technology with a small machine as close to production processes as possible.

DuraMax is suited for process control on the production floor, for the quick in-between inspection of small workpieces and for testing volume parts directly in production. It replaces traditional measuring equipment such as height gauges, ring gauges, snap gauges, plug gauges, form measuring machines, workshop measuring equipment and manual measuring machines.

DuraMax meets the needs of users of dimensional measuring technology in many aspects: its low total price offers customers affordable access to Zeiss scanning. Users can quickly learn to how operate the machine and perform measurements. The ease of use makes this “Scanning machine for everyone” an ideal replacement tool. If modifications are made to the product to be tested, standard inspection procedures often require new, expensive gauges. DuraMax, however, is a CNC all-rounder that, when combined with CAD-based Calypso measuring software, quickly, easily and reproducibly measures all changes.
