Wenzel High speed measurement solution
July 2009 Email to a friend
 
Wenzel's high speed non-contact measurement solution, based on the Wenzel Steintek white light sensor, has a high precision swivel head for sensor positioning and high precision rotary table for part positioning.

Wenzel High speed measurement solutionIdeally suited as production checking machines in a workshop environment, the machine boasts 180 points per minute in point measurement mode; 4,200 points per minute in scanning mode - for example, 3 minutes to measure 10 aerofoil sections, including axis alignment and reporting.

This is a non contact white light solution and makes measurement of soft, sensitive or rough surfaces possible. A range of surface finishes are easily handled with no 'coating' required. These include shiny, rusty, black, white, machined or polished surfaces.

The system is ideally suited to the measurement and reporting of turbine blades, nozzle guide vanes and blisks, in fact any component that require surface measurement or digitising.
