A Hexagon Case Study
WEISS GmbH, an internationally leading supplier of automation solutions like rotary tables, faced a challenge with their time-intensive quality control process. The company needed to measure intricate cam drives, a core component of their products, which required separate runs on a gear measurement device and a coordinate measuring machine (CMM), creating a significant burden on time and efficiency. They sought a single, high-precision, and fast solution from vendor Hexagon.
Hexagon provided a solution with two high-performance CMMs: the Leitz PMM-F and the Leitz Reference HP. Both machines, powered by Hexagon's QUINDOS software, functioned as powerful gear measuring centres, eliminating the need for a separate device. This integration provided greater flexibility, faster throughput, and automatic measurement capabilities. The solution enabled WEISS to significantly streamline its process, increase productivity, and scrutinize its cam drives with high precision on a single machine.
