MC 510 - Measure roughness in the machine tool
Mahr now offers an innovative automated solution for measuring surface roughness on workpieces directly in the CNC manufacturing machine. For this purpose, the MarSurf MC 510 measuring instrument is completely integrated into the tool holder, where it measures using a vibration-resistant, tactile skidless probe system - in accordance with standards and with high precision down to Rz 1 μm.
he MarSurf MC 510 is quickly and conveniently available in the machine tool: If a roughness measurement is to be carried out, the machine tool automatically inserts the measuring instrument from the tool magazine into the spindle like a regular machine tool. Various tool holders are available as interfaces, including types SK 40 and HSK-A 63. As soon as the measuring instrument is ready, the user can easily align it using the software-controlled, flexible swivel joint. The measuring movement is carried out by the integrated feed drive, with the CNC machine positioning the device at the measuring point.
Advantages:
• Automated process for fast measurement of surface parameters
• Precisely reproducible measurements without operator influence
• Indication of tool wear and thus reduction of tool costs
• Protected against dirt thanks to robust design
• Flexible production processes thanks to direct control and measuring data output in NC code
• Wireless communication with Edge PC
• OPC UA interface and closed-loop-ready
• Fully automatic and reliable documentation of surface parameters without expert knowledge
