The drive to propel growth through data-informed decisions has made coordinate measuring machines (CMM) with infinite 5-axis probe head positioning a fixture on the shop floor. AIMS Metrology will demonstrate its turnkey 5-axis CMM systems and single source software platforms at Booth #3251. The OEM’s Revolution Series Summit 10.10.10, LM and HB provide accurate, flexible three-dimensional inspection of small to large in-process and post-process parts on the shop floor, in the lab or in an automated cell.
“We’re a single source provider that builds and assembles our CMMs in the U.S.,” says Mark Gearding, AIMS co-owner and vice president. “We have an in-house service group and application team that allows us to customize the CMM to a job shop or fabricator’s needs. That includes programming, custom holding fixtures, tooling, automation, service and support.”
Raw material and labor shortages and the need to understand what is happening on the shop floor at any given moment, mean fabricators can’t afford to run 20 or 30 parts before the first part is inspected.
“We’re seeing more and more applications where a turnkey system from a support perspective is the best solution,” Gearding says. “Our 5-axis CMMs coupled with the right software package are helping job shops and fabricators implement an Industrial Internet of Things model where integrated measurement technology can effectively contribute to more efficient manufacturing processes through connectivity. Multisensor inspection requirements will continue to grow in order to adapt to ongoing product changes. We are one of the few OEMs that can provide a true shop floor turnkey package along with the service and support.”
About AIMS
AIMS’ Revolution Series 5-axis coordinate measuring machines (CMM) provide the metal fabrication market with multisensor inspection and intelligence-gathering tools. Exclusively supported by Renishaw’s 5-axis probe systems and open-source platform technology, AIMS’ LM, HB and Summit 10.10.10 deliver the power, accuracy and throughput companies need to meet critical production demands for small to large-sized in-process and post process parts. The single source supplier builds and assembles its machines in the U.S. An in-house service group and application team tailors each CMM to a job shop or fabricator’s needs, including programming, custom holding fixtures, tooling and automation. Software options including MODUS, CMM Manager and Verisurf, give companies additional flexibility to optimize data collection. AIMS’ aftermarket service and support technicians partner with manufacturers to help maintain uptime. Machine retrofits and refurbished equipment are also available. AIMS is ISO/IEC 17025:2017 certified for calibration services by the ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board.
