A Hexagon Case Study
Wiener Linien, the public transport operator in Vienna, faced challenges with time-consuming manual measurements and error-prone documentation for its machined components. To achieve the necessary precision and roadworthiness for its trams, the company sought a solution from Hexagon to enhance process reliability and create complete documentation.
Hexagon implemented its m&h 3D Form Inspect software and touch probes on Wiener Linien's machine tools. This provided an easy-to-use, automated system for on-machine measurement and reporting. The solution from Hexagon cut the process time for their main workpiece by at least 50%, eliminated documentation errors, and significantly enhanced process safety and repeatability.
