QC-500 One-day Quick Check Laser Calibration System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The QC-500 is a compact laser calibration system designed for quick one-day checks of machine tools, adhering to ASME B5.54 standards and ISO 9000 requirements. It utilizes patented Laser Doppler Displacement Meter (LDDM™) technology and offers comprehensive measurements of linear, volumetric, and contouring performance.
Key Features and Benefits:
  • Compact and lightweight design for easy transport and setup.
  • Automatic data collection with NIST traceable laser accuracy.
  • Operates without the need for a tripod or interferometer.
  • Includes Windows™ software and USB interface.
  • Supports VDI, ISO, and ASME B5.54 standards.
  • Measures displacement, straightness, and squareness errors in four simple setups.
  • Non-contact contouring measurements with variable radius.
Major Applications:
  • Automatically generates pitch and straightness error compensation files.
  • Measures absolute radius, feed-rate, and acceleration of circular contours.
Specifications:
  • Configuration includes a single aperture laser head, retro-reflector, magnetic base, flat-mirror target, and more.
  • Power requirements: 90 to 230 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz.
  • Laser stability: ±0.05 ppm; System accuracy: ±0.5 ppm.
  • Resolution: ±0.5 microinch (0.005 µm); Range: 50 ft. (15 meters).
  • Volumetric calibration range up to 40"x40"x40" (1 cubic meter).
  • Measures 3 displacement errors, 6 straightness errors, and 3 squareness errors.
  • Circular contouring test data rate: 1-1000 data/sec, max data points: 10,000, radius: 0.01" to 3".

Specifications The QC-500 One-day Quick-check Calibration System features single aperture optical arrangement. Using a flat-mirror as the target, it can perform the "Vector" m easurement to obtain the volumetric positioning e rrors. With the USB interface, it can perform the non-contact circular contouring measurement to obtain the dynamic positioning errors. For a CNC machine with a working volume of 1 cubic meter, both the static volumetric positioning errors and the dynamic circular contouring errors can be measured in one-day.
