Dehumidifiers for Co-ordinate Measuring Machine (CMM).
A coordinate measuring machine is a high-precision measuring machine used to measure the geometry of physical objects by sensing discrete points on the surface of the object with a probe. Probes are of various types, mechanical, optical, laser and white light. (Definition Source: Wikipedia) Moisture in air causes condensation and corrosion on the parts of the control measuring machine, especially if the parts consist of iron. Additionally, control measuring machines have granite tables which are hygroscopic in nature, so humidity variations affect their dimensional stability and make them unsuitable for use in CMM’s of the highest grade. To understand corrosion effects on the control measuring machines better, pls find the below table: (Table Source: Environmental Effects on Coordinate Measuring Machine […]
