New-Generation ZEISS Prismo CMM Cuts Measurement Program Time By 74%
Enhanced with ZEISS CMM Acceleration Mode for Aerospace Applications, the ZEISS PRISMO 7/12/7 fortis, revolutionises accuracy and productivity. Discover an astounding 80% reduction in rotary table axis definition time and seamless synergy with ZEISS CALYPSO software.
Headquartered in Rorschacherberg, Switzerland, the Starrag Group manufactures machining centers for production solutions that handle turbine blades, blisks, and more, with a major focus on aerospace applications. Precision powers the aerospace industry, and accuracy requirements have grown far stricter in recent years.
In serving the expanding and widely varying demands of its global customer base, Starrag must perform high-efficiency measurements that deliver very fast, highly accurate, and easily reproducible results. The pilot project thus saw the new-generation ZEISS PRISMO 7/12/7 fortis deployed in a vital and highly visible role in the quality lab – and Starrag was wowed by the results.
Starrag’s Head of Quality Management, Roland Ziltener, sums it up neatly: “In the field of measuring technology, accuracy is usually slow. With ZEISS PRISMO 7/12/7 fortis equipped with ZEISS CMM Acceleration Mode for Aerospace Applications, the opposite is the case.”
As Ziltener notes with a smile, his customers are always “fascinated and somewhat shocked” at how this new-generation CMM combines accuracy and speed on a whole new level.
A Fresh Approach To Rotary Table Applications
The new-generation ZEISS PRISMO 7/12/7 fortis boasts a highly dynamic rotary table for sharply reduced measuring times, while the ZEISS Acceleration Mode for Aerospace Applications package combines a pair of rotary table measurement options known as ZEISS VAST Rotary Table (ZVR) and ZEISS VAST Rotary Table Axis (ZVRA).
These promote a fresh approach to rotary table applications by boosting the rotary table positioning speed and axis definition speed respectively. Indeed, ZVRA cuts the axis definition period from 60 to 12 seconds – a remarkable 80% time saving on a process performed for each workpiece at Starrag.
