March 24, 2023 • KES Machine Calibration

In this blog post, we’ll be discussing the advanced techniques used for CMM calibration, and why you should choose KES Machine LLC for all your CMM calibration needs.

Techniques for CMM Calibration

At KES Machine LLC, we use advanced techniques for CMM calibration. Our technicians are highly trained and experienced in the calibration of a wide range of CMM models. Some of the advanced techniques we use include laser interferometer calibration, ball bar testing, and software compensation. These techniques ensure that your CMM is calibrated to the highest standards of accuracy and precision.

Laser Interferometer Calibration

Laser interferometer calibration is a highly accurate method of calibrating CMMs. It uses a laser beam to measure the linear accuracy of the CMM. The laser beam is projected onto a reflector, which is moved along the axis of the machine. The position of the reflector is measured by a detector, and any deviations from the expected position are recorded. This information is then used to calculate the machine’s accuracy and make any necessary adjustments.

Ball Bar Testing

Ball bar testing is a method of checking the circular accuracy of a CMM. It involves attaching a ball bar to the machine and measuring its movement in a circular pattern. The readings are then compared to the expected values, and any discrepancies are corrected.

Software Compensation

Software compensation is a technique used to correct errors in the software that controls the CMM. It involves adjusting the software to ensure that it is calibrated correctly. This technique is particularly useful for correcting errors caused by changes in temperature or humidity.

Benefits of Our PM Programs and Service Contracts
