Components
HOMMEL-ETAMIC provides components for customized measuring solutions, including sensors, transducers, and evaluation software.
Pneumatic Measurement Technology
Pneumatic measurement offers high resolution and robustness, suitable for tough manufacturing conditions, adhering to DIN 2271 standards. It is ideal for precision parts measurement, offering high precision (<0.1 µm), repeatability (<0.05 µm), and non-contact measurement.
Standard and Custom Air Tooling
Standard air tooling uses pneumatic air jets for I.D. and O.D. measurements, while custom air tooling is engineered for specific part features and can include multiple measurement circuits.
Pneumo-Electronic Transducers
These transducers convert air pressure into digital signals for data acquisition and machine compensation, operating on a comparison-based concept using calibrated standards.
Tactile Measurement Components
Tactile sensors, including LVDT sensors, are used for quick multi-point measurements, suitable for large tolerance ranges and rough surfaces, offering reliability and robustness.
Measurement and Evaluation Software
Tolaris Premium and Tolaris Expert software provide solutions for dimensional and geometric measurements, offering multilingual interfaces, customizable reports, and various data export options. Tolaris Premium supports extensive sensor management, while Tolaris Expert is tailored for up to 32 probes and multiple test plans.
Industrial Measuring Computers
Sirius and Vega computers, combined with Tolaris software, offer flexible solutions for production process control, featuring user-friendly interfaces and compatibility with various sensors and interfaces.
