The m&h LS-R-4.8 stands out as a cutting-edge wireless laser scanner for machine tools. This innovative sensor can be seamlessly integrated and removed from the tool changer without requiring any human intervention. Data is transmitted via radio directly to the measuring software and machine control, streamlining the entire process.
For precise measurements, collecting data at key points on a part is essential. With the metrology-grade laser scanner embedded in the machine tool, users can swiftly capture and analyze a detailed, data-rich image of the part, allowing for immediate corrective actions while the part remains clamped. This advanced technology not only enhances the speed and accuracy of machine tool inspections but also significantly reduces reliance on external measurement devices, delivering unparalleled flexibility and efficiency to your operations.
Features & Benefits
Creating Clear Color Maps
Every second, the m&h LS-R-4.8 system records thousands of measurement points. This allows users to compare the results with the part’s digital model and visualize the surface data in easy-to-understand color maps.
Measuring Freeform Surfaces
To measure freeform surfaces on a machine tool, multiple individual measurement points typically need to be gathered and analyzed. Users can quickly capture extensive surface data using a laser scanner and then compare it to the CAD model.
Accurate Alignment Before Reworking
Having a complete image of the surface makes it easier to identify manufacturing defects, such as improper clamping, and allows for precise alignment to correct these issues.
Reverse Engineering
Not every component has a 3D model. The m&h LS-R-4.8 produces these models by scanning a part while it is still mounted on the machine tool. The resulting data can then be exported as an STL file and integrated into a CAD application.
