Geometrical control
Our expert technicians test your machine’s geometries against ISO 230-1 specifications, then provide a comprehensive report with practical recommendations to sharpen its precision.
As your needs evolve, this service remains applicable throughout your machine’s lifecycle.
Calibration by laser interferometer
Get spot-on linear-axis positioning. Our calibration specialists verify the precision and repeatability of your machine’s operations, then fine-tune your axis correction tables in accordance with VDI 3441 / ISO 230-2 standards – eliminating deviations for reliable, high-quality performance every time.
Circularity test with ballbar gauge
Our team compares your machine’s actual toolpath with the programmed one, spotting any divergence. When misalignments arise, we propose a tailored recovery plan – whether through geometrical adjustments, laser recalibration, or component replacement.
Report cube
The report cube assesses your machine’s geometrical performance, determined by axial alignment and lens calibration. Any deviations over time can then be adjusted for higher results.
