SD-500 Volumetric Calibration

Product catalog summary
Overview
The document describes the OPTODYNE SD-500 Volumetric Calibration Package, an add-on to the MCV-500 Linear-Machine Calibration System. This system is designed to measure and improve the volumetric accuracy of CNC machine tools and Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs) using Laser Doppler Displacement Meter (LDDM™) technology and the 'Vector' measurement technique.
Specifications
The system measures volumetric errors, including three displacement errors, six straightness errors, and three squareness errors. It features a laser stability of ±0.05 PPM and a linear accuracy resolution of ±0.5 microinch (0.005µm) over a measuring range of 40”x40”x40” (1 cubic meter), with larger ranges available.
Features and Benefits
  • Easy setup and operation.
  • Measures linear, straightness, and squareness errors quickly and efficiently.
  • High accuracy and repeatability with N.I.S.T. traceable laser accuracy.
  • Includes Windows™ software for data collection and analysis.
  • Automatic environmental compensation.
  • Compact and portable design.
Applications
  • Calibration of CNC machine tools and CMMs.
  • Assessment of machine axes squareness.
  • Quality control maintenance.
  • Quick checks of volumetric accuracy and error source identification.
Unique Properties
The MCV-500 system features a single aperture optical arrangement allowing for 'Vector' measurement, which can measure all linear error components. This is achieved with a flat-mirror target, enabling large lateral displacements that conventional interferometers cannot handle.

OPTODYNE’s SD-500 Volumetric Calibration Package, (Patent Pending) is an add-on package to OPTODYNE’s MCV-500, Linear-Machine Calibration System. The combined system provides a rapid and efficient way of measuring a machine’s volumetric accuracy over the working volume. The system can be used to calibrate CNC machine tools, and CMM’s (Coordinate Measuring Machines). Based on the Laser Doppler Displacement Meter (LDDM™) technology, and the “Vector” measurement technique, the volumetric errors including three displacement errors, six straightness errors, and three squareness errors can be measured...

SD-500 Volumetric Calibration-3

Specifications The unique property of the MCV-500 Laser Calibration System is the single aperture optical arrangement. With the “Vector” measurement method the laser beam direction is not parallel to the direction of movement, hence all linear error components can be measured. The lateral displacement tolerance of a conventional interferometer is too small to perform the “Vector” measurement. But with Optodyne’s MCV-500 and a flat-mirror as the target, large lateral displacements of the “Vector” measurement are possible. Measured Volumetric Errors
