1 Koordinatenmessger te und Measuring machines and gear inspection centersLeitz Reference 600/700/900 Coordinate Measuring MachineThe machines of the Leitz Reference se-ries are economical scanning devices for solving complex Measuring tasks. They are equipped with the 3D probe system developed and manufactured by Hexagon Metrology GmbH in can execute both quick single-point probing for all typical Measuring tasks and High-Speed-Scanning for form and contour accuracy of the Measuring results and its universal applicability are decisively based on the 3D probe system. During every operation, it measures the surface of the workpiece in the X, Y and Z directions simultaneously and, hence, automatically in the direction of the surface without clamping the axes, this means that the probe system is positioned perpendicular to the surface of the work-piece the actual direction of the surface normal is determined for every Measuring point. Thus, the deflection of the probe can be calculated and Leitz Reference is not only a Coordinate Measuring machine.

2 In combination with QUINDOS software it can also be used as a gear inspection center. Over 30 packages, such as gears, bevel gears, worms, worm wheels, step gears, scroll and screw com-pressors are Coordinate Measuring machine for sophisticated applicationsPrecision in detail Particularly stiff all-aluminum frame The TRICISION bridge design offers an optimal stiffness-to-mass ratio of the bridge and, hence, unique precision and long-term stability. The heavy, stable granite table is insensi-tive to vibrations. The granite Measuring table is made from one piece. Patented dovetailed guideways are built-in with the highest possible precision. The optimized elastomer damping system with variable stiffness isolates vibra-tions coming from the surroundings. The position of the high-resolution steel scales close to the guideways ensures the best possible reproducibility. Patented weight compensation In view of the small footprint and minimal height, the Measuring machine can be set up even in small spaces.

3 Unrestricted access to the working air bearings on precision machined dovetailed guideways ensure optimal reproducibility and long system stability. The prestressed air bearings ensure precise guidance along the entire travel path of the belt drives with elliptical tooth profiles to reduce machine vibrations at high scanning precision and flexibility of the Leitz LSP-S2 probe system is unrivalledExcellent probing deviation according to DIN EN ISO 10360-2 makes it possible to measure any complex geometry, also with very narrow part probing frequency of 40 hits/min guarantees maximum high-speed scanning of known and unknown contours and Measuring with very long extensions characterize the probe control system for high acceleration and scanning speeds. Simple, proven design with 20% less parts than customary Measuring ma-chines. Consequently - higher reliability - less maintenance - more operating time - lower acquisition costs Based on computer-aided design engi-neering, such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Modal Analysis, the structure of the machine was optimized with regard to deflection, effects of vibrations and machine dynamics.

4 TRICISION technology lowers the machine s center of gravity and, at the same time, provides a greater distance between the air bearings than traditional technology. Consequently - better control of the axes motion and higher Measuring accuracy in space - better reproducibility - higher acceleration - higher Measuring speedThe machines are available in 600, 700 and 900 series, indicating the Measuring range of the technology Traditional technologyThe unique TRICISION technology, as compared to the traditional technology with triangular bridge cross-section, offers the best requisites for very high dynamics with a low center of gravity and reduced design, optimal performanceThe best technical features of several generations of Coordinate Measuring machines have been combined in the Reference 14001 ISO 9001:2000 VDA Leitz brand as part of Hexagon Metrology stands for high accuracy Coordinate Measuring machines, gear inspection centers and probes.
