Measure complex geometry of a gun barrel and create drawing in order to provide information for fixture design.

Solution

We scanned the section in consideration with a hand-held Freescan Combo metrology scanner. Cleaned the mesh, exported stl. From the mesh data we reverse engineered CAD file by DesignX app. Finaly we created drawing, exported dxf, pdf and step data.

Adopt high pressure low volume pumps to specification.

Solution

Based on the given sample we simplified the design of the pump, decreased its total length and cut manufacturing costs while performance remained the same. We manufactured 3 pieces from this item for different labor equipment.

Demaged ball joint repair.

Solution

A damaged 3-piece ball joint was dismounted from a 35 t press. Parts were scanned, original actual geometry was measured by a laser scanner. Alignment errors were analyzed in 3D models revere engineered from point clouds. We created drawings for regulating the nests on CNC turning machines and redesigned the ball stud to ensure functionality and to elevate the upper dead-end position of press.

Mechanical concept, design and built of tester.

Solution

As a supplier of Omegabite Ltd. we were responsible for the mechanical part of this complex project. Starting from conceptual 2D sketch through detailed modelling, manufacturing and CE certification we tackled challenges. Project leading and electrical design belonged to Omegabite Ltd. During testing, installation and refinements we were the local team of OMB.

Turn conceptual design into manufacturing documentation.

Solution

As a contractor of AAT GmbH, we designed a portal lift capable of manipulating 600 kg payload in an automotive manufacturing facility. Manufacturing documentation was created according to specification issued by the manufacturer, AAT GmbH. Checking strength or lifetime of critical components was also part of this task.

Adopt best practice to requirements and create manufacturing documentation.

Solution

As a contractor of AAT GmbH, we designed a lifts capable of elevating 600 kg payload up to 11 m in an automotive manufacturing facilities. Manufacturing documentation was created according to specification issued by the manufacturer, AAT GmbH. Input was native CAD models from a similar project. Checking strength or lifetime of critical components was also part of this task.

Utilization of Freescan Combo metrology scanner with ControlX and DesignX software package.

Solution

By processing the point cloud obtained by a Freescan Combo laser scanner we can

• measure and issue QS reports about individual or serial products
• certify gauges for production purposes
• reverse engineering arbitrary parts
• create undocumented spare parts
• measure machine environment for designing new or modified components

Sample holding container for leak-off testing.

Solution

Oval shape moving plunger above sample to achieve prescribed shear length of testing fluid. Plunger position is indicated by an integrated micrometer dial gauge. Special sealing tube rim gripping development to minimize radially unloaded sample length. Sample is triaxially loaded at 150°C with 150 bars.
