Measurement Equipment
Ogihara America uses conventional checking fixtures, datamytes, coordinate measuring machines (CMM's), and Optigo (white light scanning systems), both manually and fully automated to ensure the highest quality parts.
OAC utilizes a dedicated checking fixtures approved by the customer to verify dimensional integrity. These checking fixtures are well maintained and used throughout the life of the part.
Ogihara America utilizes a non-contact white light 3D optical system for dimensional measurement as well. This system is faster than traditional CMMs and provides complete surface dimensional data. Following many succesful applications of the manual Optigo equipment, Ogihara America fully automated the system for production use.
Ogihara America uses this system for measuring point data for the production part approval process (PPAP), virtual assembly, analyzing production parts, and reverse engineering of parts. The benefit of this system includes:
- Faster data acquisition
- Full 3-D inspection
- Timely problem resolution
- Operator independent measurement results
- Full view of the product’s dimensional quality
Ogihara America utilizes an SMM system for dimensional measurement. It has a 50-ton capacity.
- Drive-on/Drive-off isolation foundation
- Reverse engineering capability
- Total CAD integrated software
- Statistical process control/reporting software
- Laser scanning capability
