Gear Inspection
Gear Inspection - Start Here
Overview CMM-Manager’s Gear Inspection package provides comprehensive involute gear measurement and reporting capabilities for DCC CMMs. It allows users to perform gear inspections using an existing CMM equipped with a touch probe, eliminating the ...
Topography Check
Topography Check Once a gear is defined and the reference frame has been established, we can configure and teach a Topography Check into the program database. Unlike other gear check items that can evaluate up to 4 teeth in one item, this tool will ...
Spacing/Runout Check
Spacing/Runout Check Once a gear is defined and the reference frame has been established, we can configure and teach a Spacing/Runout Check into the program database. This gear check item will give the user options for 5 evaluations relating to ...
Profile Check
Profile Check Once a gear is defined and the reference frame has been established, we can configure and teach a Profile Check into the program database. The Profile Check will evaluate a gear tooth's involute profile by measuring points along the ...
Lead Check
Lead Check Once a gear is defined and the reference frame has been established, we can configure and teach a Lead Check into the program database. The Lead Check will evaluate a gear lead by measuring points in a line along the face width at a ...
Gear Ref. Frame
Before CMM-Manager can perform various gear-related measurements and reporting, the Gear Reference Frame must be established. This affects target point location and nominals, thus it is critical to be defined at the expected position with respect to ...
Calibrate Gear Tip
Calibrate Gear Tips will generate necessary tips (if they don't exist already) as well as calibrate them. These tips are specifically for the gear measurement and have different naming convention (GEAR_PA#_###). Please ensure that the reference tip ...
Define Gear
Any gear that CMM-Manager will inspect must first be defined. Various parameters about the gear's size, number of teeth, and tooth profile are required; these parameters are stored in a gear parameter file. You can also define DCC motion parameters ...
