Optical coordinate measuring machine KNM X

for aeronauticsCNC

According to customer-specific requirements, the KNM X series can be either designed as a stationary machine for medium and larger sized gears, or as a docking station. For this purpose, any size of the machine base can be combined with a rotary table and a transportable 3-axes measuring device. The KNM X machines boast high-precision mechanics with optimal accessibility, laser-based safety equipment, large bearing clearances and generously dimensioned guiding cross-sections. Linear motors are used in all linear axes. High-precision rotary tables with air or hydrostatic bearing (diameter of 500 to 1,800 mm) feature direct drives / through-holes. Controlled air spring elements underneath the base plates safely shield from jolts and vibrations. No separate foundations are required. The use of drives close to the centre of gravity ensures a low level of dynamic distortions.
