Diversity and flexibility characterize our complete line of

dimensional metrology products. Our aim is to provide

the optimum solution for the measuring task, the degree

of automation, and the machine design. It‘s here that you

profit from our years of experience and broad knowledge

base in the development of standard and customized

metrology solutions.

Pneumatic - highest precision, extreme robustness. For di-

mensional, geometric, position, and form measurements.

Tactile - classic multi-point measurement with LVDT

probes, fast capture of measurement parameters. For

dimensional, form, and position measurements.

Optical - fast measurement, highest flexibility. For dimen-

sional, contour, form, and position measurements.

Hommel-Etamic, the Industrial Metrology Division of the

Jenoptik Group, is a leading manufacturer and system

provider of high-precision, tactile and non-tactile produc-

tion metrology.

Our range of products includes solutions for a wide range

of measurement tasks such as testing surfaces, form, and

determining dimensional tolerances – throughout all pha-

ses of the production process, for final inspection or in a

metrology lab. Our product portfolio is rounded off by a

wide range of services in consulting, training and service,

including long-term maintenance contracts.

Dynamic measurements and statistical process control

(SPC) are possible, as well as 100% inspection with in-

terlinked semi- and fully automatic gaging machines that

can be integrated into the production line.

Dimensional measurement is often only one of the tasks

specified for our gaging machines. Weighing, grading,

marking and sorting can also be an integral part of the

gaging system.

For statistical process data analysis, the measuring

systems can be equipped with a AQDEF certified qs-STAT

interface.

In-process measurement.

High reliablity as well as easy mechanical and electrical in-

tegration are conditions that we take into account when

designing our measuring control systems for machine

tools. Our modular concept guarantees a high degree of

flexibility that can be easily adapted to a variety of measu-

ring tasks.

Hommel-Movomatic manufactures in-process measure-

ment systems for simple or complex grinding applications

(e.g. grinding or superfinishing). These systems measure

during the actual grinding process, helping to eliminate

tolerance variations due to wear of the grinding wheels,

thermal fluctuation of the workpiece and coolant, and

the instability of the machine related to all of the above

factors.

The measuring systems are also used for pre- and post-

process applications (quality surveillance, SPC) as well as

match grinding.

Handheld measuring instruments.

8 9valvescan

Our handheld measuring instruments and manual gaging

benches are designed to assess the dimensional work-

piece characteristics by part sampling, or through 100%

inspection. These benches utilize tactile and pneumatic

tooling (for dynamic or static measurements), control

systems for visualization and evaluation of the measure-

ment results as well as statistical analysis.

Thanks to their robust design, these benches are ideally

suited for use in production environments.

Examples of applications

Air plugs for inner diameters•

Air snaps and rings for outer diameters•

Custom gaging fixtures designed for a full range of •

dimensional and geometric measurements

The gaging fixtures are custom-assembled from a variety

of measuring components and are therefore always opti-

mized for your workpiece and measuring task.

Plug gage for cylinder head

Fully automatic gaging machines.

Our gaging machines utilize both tactile and pneumatic

measurement tooling, made of wear-resistant, dirt-

repellent materials (i.e. carbide, TCIN coating, etc) that

precisely capture the dimensions of the workpiece.

Our product range includes machines for final inspection

all the way up to fully automated interlinked measure-

ment stations for 100% control of the production line. In-

line and offline gaging machines and fixtures, with semi-

or fully automatic measuring runs as well as workpiece

specific multi-point fixtures, are all a part of our product

portfolio.

Fast measuring rates as well as part classification, mar-

king, and sorting are key abilities of our gaging machines.

Optionally, optical sensors for surface inspection can be

integrated into our machines, saving time and making

your production cost-effective.

Optical measuring systems.

Thanks to fast measuring cycles and easy handling, our

optical measuring systems are extremely flexible for use in

production and may be used throughout all phases of the

production process.

Optical measuring systems are used for flexible interme-

diate inspection as well as final inspection. Applications

range from SPC measuring systems up to fully automa-

ted, interlinked post-process gaging machines for 100%

inspection.

Optical measuring principles, combined with our award

winning design, guarantee fast conversion between a

huge variety of different workpieces. Standard systems

are ideally suited for measurement of all common shafts.

Some optical measuring systems can be optionally equip-

ped with a tactile scanning system for length and axial

face run-outs.

Our automated surface inspection systems utilize special

360° optical sensors that are capable of 100% control.

The sensor can be integrated directly into the production

line, where the high scanning rate of the ring sensor de-

livers consistent high quality measurement results in the

shortest possible cycle times.

For the inspection of cylinder bores a special and unique

measurement technology is used. Simultaneous forward

advancing of the inspection sensor into the bore and

circular scanning, allow the generation of an undistorted

image of the inner surface of the bore.

Surface defects such as blow holes, scratches or poro-

sities, are completely and automatically checked and

classified. Error and defect boundaries are also automati-

cally detected.
