Integrated Automation – Erowa CMM Qi measuring machine with a gripper and an integrated workpiece magazine.
Fully automating a measuring station means having a robot take over the loading process. The measuring station can be integrated as a component on your production line and change workpieces, managed by the right process control system. The system provides the right measuring program, then creates and saves a report after Measurement. But we also supply a slightly less intimidating entry into automation.
Integrated Automation!
The Erowa CMM Qi measuring station epitomizes the very essence of automation. Its stable and symmetrical design can do more than shift a few measuring heads. This station can move workpieces with a total weight of up to 5 kg from the attached magazine to the measurement position and back again. With undisputed advantages – the 20 to 30 parts automatically positioned for measurement take up no extra space at all. And the process more or less mimics the manual loading process, except that the station can operate autonomously during marginal working hours.
This makes it a “less intimidating” entry into the world of automation, and the best way to find out how productivity may be affected.
The key questions
- Do you want to measure up to 30 parts automatically?
- Do you want to operate the CMM Qi measuring station without supervision during marginal working hours?
- Do you need reports for each measured workpiece?
- Do you want to be able to continue using the measuring station manually during the day?
- Do you need the space next to the measuring station for something other than a robot?
- Do you want to gain initial experience of automation without immediately changing all your workflows?
The “Integrated Automation CMM Qi” is specifically designed to meet these requirements. It is the simplest complete solution to increase utilization of your measuring station.
