The versatility of the Protomar Mini is proven through its application in multi-diameter machines, such as grinders for broaches or turbine blades. What sets it apart from conventional measurement systems is its ability to eliminate the setup and zeroing procedure on a master workpiece for the various diameters across its measuring range. Protomar Mini provides absolute measruements across its 100mm measuring range, eliminating the need or retooling when changing diameters. Operators can achieve exceptional measurement performance with 2.5μm repeatability, ensuring uninterrupted productivity and significant reductions in setup time.

The NVH G-EAR system can identify potential gear defects at the component level prior to gear box assembly. It works on the Single Flank testing principle where one master gear meshes with the component under inspection, detecting macro-geometry (nicks, runout etc.) and micro- geometry (gear mesh excitation, ghost orders) defects that cause gear whine and noise phenomena.

Because of the ground chip breaker on these inserts, the inserts are handed (left hand and right hand insert), but these are standard ISO shapes and sizes- so they are held in conventional ISO turning holders. The inserts also use ‘M’ or maximum material condition tolerance on the corner radii of the cermet, thus allowing for machining of small radius shoulders while utilizing maximum (larger) corner radius strength. The primary application for the WEP01C cermet inserts is turning steels and cast irons (ISO P and ISO K material groups).

The cam followers incorporate a polymer layer that is molded directly onto the IKO exclusive thin-walled steel outer ring. This construction solves the dilemma of being able to install a cam follower with special polymers, offering self-lubricating and shock-absorbing properties into existing applications.

In MERLIC 5.6, some methods that were previously available on a test basis have been transferred to completely new tools. These tools are: “Count with Deep Learning”, “Segment Image Pixel-Precisely", and “Recognize Color”. With “Count with Deep Learning”, also known as Deep Counting, it is possible to count a large number of objects quickly and robustly with little training effort. There are many possible use cases for this feature, like for example completeness checks. “Segment Image Pixel-Precisely" makes it possible to localize trained defect classes with pixel precision.

The T93XM can profile with a standard 1A1 wheel and accommodates several grind styles including wheel profile, plunge, peel, in-feed and thru-feed grinding. The perimetric workholding, unique to TRU TECH, ensures part concentricity to eliminate shank runout without indicating. Ultra-precision accuracy is achieved through the 3-axis, fully programmable configuration with CNC variable speed spindle. Pick-N-Place™ software eases and shortens programming setup time. Several design features add stability and further support operator ergonomic considerations. Part sizes can be 3” (75mm) in diameter, up to 8” (200mm) in length.
