Tool wear, run-out and breakage can affect part quality. NC4+ Blue helps identify issues before machining, supporting more right-first-time parts.

What does probing add to an ultra-compact 5-axis machine? In OMBI’s OM200 application, RMP24-micro, Inspection Plus and AxiSet Check-Up helped improve part set-up times by 80%, reduced scrap waste by 30%, and tightened tolerances from 0.05 mm to 0.01 mm.

When machining high-value materials, precision matters. OMBI trusts Renishaw’s RMP24-micro on its ultra-compact 5-axis machine to automate part set-up and maintain quality and consistency.

Discover Renishaw's advanced DuraSeal™ lip seals, which provide the FORTiS™ enclosed linear encoder with superior sealing. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dYfDvmyj DuraSeal lip seals offer protection against liquid and solid debris ingress with sealing performance up to IP64. The FORTiS encoder is also protected against contamination by a further level of sealing: the readhead optical unit (which runs inside the enclosure) is sealed to IP67 to prevent contamination by liquids, swarf and other debris. This makes the FORTiS encoder ideal for use in harsh environments such as machine tools.

THERMAL IMAGING 🔥 One of the biggest enemies of metrology in the machining process is HEAT build-up in the ballscrew. In this month's episode of FORTiS™ IN FOCUS, we take a close look at how much heat is generated in a ballscrew while machining parts, analysing the effect that heat has on accuracy after 1 part, a batch of 50 parts, and then after a brief rest period to see how much things change. We then compare the results of a standard rotary encoder on the ballscrew (semi-closed loop control) to the results on the same axis with direct position feedback from linear encoders (full-closed loop control).
