HEIDENHAIN's New Verification Tool Increases Machine Accuracy
SCHAUMBURG, IL (June 2013) – As machine tool builders and end users continue to push the limit with speeds and feeds, they need a tool to evaluate the dynamic performance of their machine with the ultimate precision and accuracy. HEIDENHAIN’s new KGM 282 allows the user to precisely pinpoint the problem in the dynamics of the machine in order to increase its accuracy. Made with HEIDENHAIN’s two coordinate TITANID phase grating, the new KGM 282 has an exceptional accuracy of ±1 µm. The accuracy of the measure standard is maintained using a two-piece aluminum holder when the KGM 282 is
