Did all the research, had product demos performed for us, didn't pull the trigger.
A fixture plate on the CMM, good training, and detailed setup pictures allow our inspectors to use the CMM's programs that inspect full "pallets" of parts without having to buy an expensive robot or its associated hardware/software maintenance costs.
We have a robot that "works" in our lathe dept, it only gets fired up when we're walking customers around and they go "ooo that's cool".
Shooting from the hip....
Think that one of the main CMM issues would be how to know which part came from which lathe. Maybe use a pallet with a distinguishing feature that could be quickly measured? Some kind of block with different heights that could have a vector point touch with a generous prehit/ retract. 1 mm high block = Lathe A, 2 mm high block = Lathe B
We have a cell with 2 CNC lathes that run the exact same part. Can 1 cmm with an automation controller be set up to offset both lathes? I suppose it just needs to know which machine the parts are coming from? Lathe A or Lath B, Or is that something to avoid?
