With improved specifications and additional size availability, the new Leitz CMM from Hexagon Metrology Inc. is used for high precision inspection of extremely large components such as gears used in the windpower industry.
Unlike some gear inspection products, the PMM-G does not require a rotary table, which should aid in part loading and unloading. It also allows a maximum part weight of 15 metric tons, large enough for most any windpower gear. This system is ideal for the extremely large gears used in the windpower industry, for power generation, and power transfer products.
The PMM-G is a custom configured product, which is built at Hexagon Metrology GmbH in Wetzlar, Germany and installed at the customer site. It is available in 55 standard measuring sizes ranging from 3000 mm x 2000 mm x 1200 mm to 7000 mm x 4000 mm x 3000 mm. Gear types included in its inspection scope include spur gears, helical gears, internal and external spline gears, and more. The PMM-G also includes straight, spiral and hypoid bevel and crown gears. Gears can be evaluated to all major standards including DIN, ISO, AGMA, ANSI, JIS, CNOMO and CAT.
