Barrel ID & OD measurement and 3D inspection
Including rifling, lands, grooves, flank angles, chambers, cross holes. Same instruments measures mandrels, reamers, and drills.
Industry: Defense, barrel manufacturers
NOVACAMTM 3D metrology systems for barrel inspection offer:
- Non-contact micron-precision measurements of barrel bores with IDs from 4 to 155 mm
- 3D geometry measurement:
- barrel bore ID & OD – diameter, roundness, cylindricity/conicity, straightness, runout, ID/OD concentricity, etc.
- chambers – body, shoulder(s), neck, freebore, lead
- rifling – lands and grooves, twist rate, variable twist rate, flank angles, etc.
- Defect inspection and measurement
- Roughness measurement
- High acquisition speed of up to 100,000 3D point measurements per second
The systems are easy to integrate in automated industrial inspection setups and provide comprehensive 3D measurement data for:
- Automated user-configurable reports
- SPC (statistical process control) monitoring of production
- Gaining manufacture process insight that leads to process improvement
This is a modal window.
