3D Scanning CMM

The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) calibrates 3D scanning CMMs to confirm their accuracy and reliability when measuring the geometry of objects.
What is a 3D Scanning Coordinate Measuring Machine?
Coordinate measuring machines, or CMMs, are highly accurate machines that use probes to measure the dimensions of physical objects. CMMs measure the X, Y, and Z coordinates of an object which helps provide precise measurements of objects, offering the following benefits:
  • Versatility when measuring different types of objects
  • Superior speed and accuracy when compared to similar instruments
  • Reliable measurements that help businesses maintain quality control
  • Improve operational efficiency and reduce production costs
When Should You Calibrate Your CMM, and Why is It Important?
The frequency at which businesses should calibrate their CMMs varies heavily with the instrument’s frequency of use and exposure to compromising conditions. However, experts recommend that CMMs should receive an annual or biannual calibration to account for any naturally occurring drifts in the device’s accuracy.
It’s important to calibrate CMMs to ensure that they’re reliable and performing as efficiently as possible. Failure to regularly calibrate CMMs may cause the following:
  • Noncompliance with regulations
  • Product safety issues and recalls
  • Unexpected downtime leading to financial losses
Our 3D Scanning CMM Calibration Services
Industrial businesses use CMMs because of their supreme accuracy, and our calibration experts work alongside our clients to ensure that their CMMs remain within the desired range of accuracy. Prior to calibration, we prepare the CMM by inspecting the device for any signs of debris or damage before reviewing the instrument owner’s manual for information regarding the specific procedures for that instrument. During calibration, we compare the readings from our client’s CMM to a known reference standard. If the measurements don’t match, we correct the inaccuracies and address any potential factors that may have contributed to the drift in accuracy.
