The highly accurate dynamic acquisition of guiding characteristics of machine axes as well as the subsequent standard-compliant calibration are a very labor- and time-intensive process, which ultimately leads to a high positioning accuracy.
The SP 15000 C5 calibration laser interferometer was specially developed to meet the high demands of machine and equipment manufacturers. All measured variables such as length, pitch angle, yaw angle as well as straightness in x- and y-alignment are recorded with high precision by laser interferometry, whereby the same highly stable laser frequency is used in all three length measurement channels. This enables synchronous, continuous 5 DOF measurements. Complete machine acceptance or volumetric compensation can be implemented using the optional software.
Due to the compact design of the straightness optics, the straightness mirror is directly attached to the sensor head. Thus, only two components have to be assembled and aligned to each other. Even in cramped or difficult-to-access spaces, the measurement system can be quickly installed and reliably adjusted.
The fiber optic coupling of the sensor head and the integrated beam direction detection support the easy handling and adjustment. The calibration interferometer does not require an additional stand. It can be placed directly on the stable machine bed. This minimizes the number of optical components to be aligned.
For large measuring ranges or calibration tasks, wireless radio temperature sensors or our LCS precision climate measuring station are preferred.
