CNC - Gear Measuring Center KLINGELNBERG P 40

The KLINGELNBERG P 40 is a fully automatic CNC-controlled gear measuring center with a compact machine design. It was specifically designed for the lower workpiece diameter range up to 400 mm and is suitable for the precise inspection of a wide variety of rotationally symmetrical components.

The measuring center can be used, among other applications, for the inspection of spur gears, shaving cutters, gear cutting tools, worms and worm wheels, hobs, and bevel gears. In addition, the machine is also suitable for general dimensional, form, and position measurements as well as for the inspection of camshafts, rotors, and similar workpieces.

The P 40 features a rigid mechanical structure with machine bed, workpiece rotary drive, column with tailstock, and horizontal, vertical, and tangential measuring axes. In combination with a 3D probe system, a 4-axis path control, and an evaluation computer, the machine enables highly accurate and automated measuring processes.

Operation is practical and efficient. After switching on the machine, the reference points of the individual measuring axes are approached automatically. Once the measuring program and workpiece data have been transferred from the evaluation computer to the machine control, the measuring center is ready for operation.

For new workpieces, a corresponding measuring program is first created via the evaluation computer. For recurring inspection tasks, stored measuring programs can be conveniently called up by entering the respective workpiece number.

Extensive software functions are available for evaluating the measuring results, allowing detailed analysis and documentation of the measured data.
