01/13/12 Evaluating micro-machining performance with new machine tool analyzer
For over ten-years, the industry standard Spindle Error Analyzer (SEA) from Lion Precision, offered by IBS Precision Engineering, has been measuring machine-tool spindle thermal growth and error motions in multiple axes; it has now been adapted for micro-machining. The micro-machining system uses smaller versions of the noncontact probes, probe mounts, and masterball targets, along with standard SEA software, to perform ANSI and ISO standard tests of spindle performance.
01/12/13 New capacitive displacement probes
To accommodate small spaces and larger measurement ranges & resolutions, Lion Precision has expanded their capacitive probe selection. New probes are available in diameters of 3 mm, 18 mm and 25 mm. In addition to new sizes, the probes use new design parameters that further improve long-term stability, resolution, and temperature drift. On the small end of the spectrum, the new 3mm diameter probes provide measurement ranges as small as 10 µm with resolutions less than 1 nanometer.
11/10/11 IBS Precision Engineering completes and delivers most accurate full 3D coordinate measuring machine in the world
After an extensive phase of research & development IBS Precision Engineering has delivered its first Isara 400 ultra precise coordinate measuring machine to IOM Leibniz, a research institute in Germany. The Isara 400 is a multi-probe 3D CMM which takes the measurement of large and complex parts (up to 400 x 400 x 100mm) to the nanometer level. Unique about this measuring machine is its ability to measure complex surfaces like aspheres, free-forms or integrated optics with a measurement uncertainty down to 109 nm in 3D, overcoming the limitations presented by the optical methods or contacting profilers which are currently used. This makes it the most accurate three-dimensional coordinate measuring machine available on the market.
