Catalogue Measurement Technology ProGrit

For measurement and referencing of cross punches or die segments there are two different possibilities existing.
On the one hand, the referencing of the probe can be done directly to a non moving and precise part of
the die (only for closed and opened die possible). On the other hand, the referencing of the probe can be done
by using an additional reference element, which is either clamped into the bottom punch chuck or the die
chuck.

Positioning of mechanical stops
Mechanical stops which are not equipped with their own length measurement
or a nonius must be adjusted by the help of a second measurement
system. This measurement system measures the current
actual position of the mechanical stop and displays the deviation
from the target position.
The mechanical stop can be adjusted with the help of this measuring
system within a short time.
The picture on the right shows an example of such a measurement
device.
User friendly software
- Intuitive menu driven operation
- Graphical referencing navigation
- No reading errors or incorrect operation
Intelligent measurement concept
Benefit
- Measurement concept can be adapted to any arrangement of
the transverse axis
- Optional lateral displacement unit allows measuring and adjusting transverse axes which extend outside of
the center
- Indexing by 90 ° about the indexing function of the pallet in the chuck
- Any angle arrangements adjustable with optional continuously variable rotary module
- Reduction of the referencing time to a few minutes
- Maximizing the compaction quality through adjustment of cross punches and die segments in the accuracy
range of + / - 1 micron
- High precise positioning allows the compaction of complex geometries
- Reduction of tool breakage or damage
