Measuring Devices - For Machine Tool Inspection and Acceptance Testing

2 Machine tool performance from the point of view of compliance to tolerances, surface definition, etc., is determined essentially by the accuracy of machine movement. For precision machining it is therefore important to measure and, if necessary, compensate for deviations in motion. Standards and directives for inspecting machine tools, such as ISO 230-2, ISO 230-3, ISO 230-4 and VDI/DGQ 3441, stipulate a number of measuring methods for determining static and dynamic deviations. In combination with their powerful evaluation software, measuring devices from HEIDENHAIN for inspection and acceptance testing of machine tools make precise and informative measurements of the machine possible with a minimum of mounting and adjustment efforts. This catalog supersedes all previous editions, which thereby become invalid. The basis for ordering from HEIDENHAIN is always the catalog edition valid when the contract is made. Standards (ISO, EN, etc.) apply only where explicitly stated in the catalog.
