Electric vehicles are rapidly transforming the automotive landscape. EVs contribute to cleaner air by producing low or no emissions during operation. Unlike traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles that emit pollutants, EVs help combat air pollution and mitigate climate change. This shift from ICE vehicles to EVs presents unique challenges due to the fundamental differences
As the global warming crisis and the demand for clean, carbon-free electric power intensify, renewable energy sources such as wind power have experienced tremendous growth in adoption. Therefore, the demand for precise and high-quality components in wind power generating industry is on the rise. In the wind power industry, the stator frame plays a pivotal role as it secures
SURFACE SWEEP SCAN is a 5-axis CMM tactile scanning technique. It captures data points over a plane by utilizing a 5-axis drive system to sweep back and forth while the CMM drive system move is a singular vector direction under a constant speed. This minimizes the inherent inaccuracies of the CMM structure while scanning at high speeds.
Credits: Verisurf EDGE SCAN is a 5-axis CMM tactile scanning technique. It drives the CMM in a uniform direction to minimize the inherent inaccuracies of the CMM structure while the system adapts to the changing surface shape by controlling the contact pressure of the stylus. EDGE SCAN is well suited to the measurement of airfoil leading
Auto sheet metal stamping parts are essential components of modern vehicles, as they form the body shape and provide structural support.
