February 19, 2019 – Applied Automation Technologies (AAT) and machine tool manufacturer DMG MORI USA have partnered to offer a new on-machine measuring software solution.
Having the ability to perform CMM (coordinate measurement machine) measurement and metrology tasks is an important part of “smart machining” manufacturing processes. The CappsNC software will provide capabilities to develop measurement programs offline and run them directly on CNC machine tools in a similar way to a CMM.
Measurement results are used to adjust machining process parameters such as calculating precise work offsets, dynamic tool compensations and other critical data feedback in an automated process together with providing complete part inspection and SPC reports.
Ray Karadayi, CEO of ATT, says, “This is a vital step in the digitalization of the manufacturing process, which enables parts to be manufactured with [the] highest level of precision with full confidence directly from the machining centre.”
The solution will live within the DMG MORI Qualified Products program, which partners DMG MORI with other suppliers to offer complete solutions to clients.
AAT is a software solutions provider for metrology, quality control and adaptive manufacturing systems.
