The GMT CMM

The GMT Co-ordinate Measuring Machine is the culmination of decades of experience in metrology and machine tools. GMT CMM's combine accuracy with functionality and practicality. GMT CMM's are the ideal measurement systems for small-to-medium sized general mechanic and prismatic components. A wide variety of state-of-the-art accessories are provided with GMT bridge-type Co-ordinate Measuring Machines to suit all dimensional inspection tasks and needs. All GMT 3D CMM's are designed and manufactured with proven technology and air bearings for frictionless travel. GMT constantly researches new materials such as composites to incorporate in its machines to achieve the required dynamic performance.

Type:

Bridge type CMM with stationary table and moving bridge placed on an ergonomically designed machine table. Machine base, cross beam and Z-axis are made of rigid granite. All axis with friction free air bearings. The drive unit and scale of the X and Y-axis are protected by a bellow. The GMT Manual CMM can be easily upgraded to the CNC version at a later date as user needs change and inspection demands increase. Individual axis locking system is provided for Manual CMM's.

Structure Accurate to 5 micron

Air Bearings:

air bearings support all linear movements Designed for maximum stability and minimum consumption of air.
Measuring scales:

Machine Structural Components:

Self adhesive tape scale and non-contact digital read head offers greater repeatability and accuracy.

GMT diabase wear-resistant black Indian

granite, precision lapped to grade 00 as per IS-7327-1991. More rigid, vibration resistant and temperature stable than steel. Threaded stainless steel inserts provided on granite base for easy clamping of components and fixtures.
Bridge design:

Servo system:

Accurate, versatile, precision, low power and low heat dissipation DC motors with integral tachometers. Friction drives on all axis. Motor gets disengaged on air supply failure.
Vibration dampers:

Hollow granite structure design used in the bridge provides greater rigidity and stability. Optimized bearing design assures optimum stability of bridge for precise volumetric measuring accuracy.
Z axis:

Vibrations absorbing leveling mount and steel base for added stability & rigidity.

Standard for calibration: In general, GMT tests and evaluates CMM products using the international standard, ISO 10360-2. It is possible to provide certificates according to other standards upon customer request at the time of placing the order.

Hollow granite square section. Failsafe brake and pneumatic

balance. Pneumatic brake for Z-axis to protect against air supply failure.

Sophisticated calibration equipment traceable to international standard

This ensures the necessary accuracy and allows the Koba Step Gauge to be placed in any position with different supports. The GUKS analysis software verifies and documents the results. The Koba Step Gauge is certified by DKD (the German National Calibration Authority) and its user-friendly software interfaces with the CMM's own hardware for data management and file storage.
Renishaw Laser Systems: Laser systems

CMM Calibration Facilities

Fully equipped with precision calibration equipment like Koba Step Gauges and Renishaw Laser Interferometer, GMT ensures that all CMM's are calibrated prior to despatch.
KOBA-step Gauge

The ultimate in precision machine performance measurement and calibration of CMM's, the Renishaw laser system & software provides the capability for static and dynamic measurement of a CMM for linear, angular, straightness, squareness & flatness errors.
Features

Koba Step Gauges have a castellated configuration, with a large number of gauge faces on a single line of measurement. A CMM can be easily calibrated in a single setup. A unique feature of the Koba Step Gauge is its special construction wherein all the points of measurement are on a neutral axis, which enables exact measurement even with the slight bending that takes place at the point of support.

automatic data capture dynamic measurement universal error compensation new report standards.

Calibration service provided on an ongoing basis
