Coordinate measuring machine cmn-mn432 - compact and precise

Coordinate measuring machines are used to precisely measure the spatial dimensions of objects. All necessary points of the object are recorded in the form of coordinates. This information is used to create a spatial image of the object. Such devices are used in coordinate measuring technology to create precise construction plans. It is also possible to check a pre-series model or a prototype. Another possible application is targeted production control.

The coordinate measuring machine records all geometric data, which makes it possible to compare objects with plans. In this way, the production is controlled and any deviations are detected. A wide variety of objects can be measured. This starts with small and individual parts, such as a gear wheel, and extends to complex parts that consist of several individual components, such as housings.

The cmn-mn432 belongs to the class of Mini CNC coordinate measuring machines
. These are characterized by their special compactness. The complete system measures 127 cm in length, 111 cm in width and 163 cm in height. At the same time, it is designed for objects with side lengths of up to 400 mm and a maximum height of 200 mm. Measurement objects may weigh up to 50 kilograms. The complete system itself weighs 280 kilograms.

Measure precisely and according to your own requirements

Measurements on a Coordinate measuring machine can sometimes be very complex. This always depends on the object to be measured. In order to be able to place even large and unwieldy objects well on the workpiece holder, the machine can be opened from three sides. This allows convenient and easy loading and unloading.

Two important components are the measuring head and the associated control system. Movable and precise measuring head systems are a guarantee for reliable measuring results even with complex objects. The automatically controlled measuring head can be guided in 168 different positions. Horizontally, movements between 0° and 90° are possible. On the vertical axis, the system allows rotations of 180°. Measurements are made with a precision of +/- 5 ?m. The system has a resolution of 0.4 ?m. In addition, the software is able to take into account deviations due to temperature fluctuations.

The receptacle for the measuring head is designed in m8. Thus, standard measuring heads with this size can be used on the cmn-mn432 without any problems. The scope of delivery also includes several variants of measuring heads. Five measuring pins with a tip diameter between one and four millimeters and a length of 10 or 20 millimeters are supplied. All of these are made of stainless steel. The system also includes a pin made of particularly hard titanium. There are also four extensions available for the tips to measure hard-to-reach positions. These have lengths of five, ten, 20 and 30 mm.

Computer-aided data evaluation on the cmn-mn432 with NET-DMIS

The coordinate measuring machine has an integrated computer system. This evaluates the measured data immediately. The system uses an internal software based on net-dmis. This makes integration into a CNC environment based on CAD software particularly easy. A printer is also part of the system. The measured data can be immediately logged on this printer.

The digital measurement data is available in a variety of formats. The coordinate measuring machine allows data export to Windows, to a server or in special formats for further processing in CAD systems. Thus it is possible to export the data as iges, step, sat, pdf, html, mht, rtf, Excel, csv, txt or Word. The import of special data in CAD format is also possible without any problems.

Robust and versatile: Possible applications of the cmn-mn432

The mini CNC coordinate measuring machine mn432 works without compressed air. All functions are electrical or manual. The measuring head system is driven by a low-noise and powerful DC servo motor. Power is supplied via a standard household Schuko plug and a 220 volt socket. This makes the coordinate measuring machine flexible.

The following measurement options are possible with the cmn-mn432:
  • Coordinates
  • Perpendicularity
  • Straightness
  • Circularity
  • Cylindricity
  • Profile of a line
  • Profile of a surface
  • Parallelism
  • Angle
  • Symmetry position
  • Coaxiality
  • Concentricity
The complete measuring system is insensitive to external influences of oil or humidity. In addition, the measuring device is specified for use in a temperature range of 10° to 40° Celsius. This allows a wide range of application options in different industries and scenarios.
