Here is a case study of comparative measurement of truck molds conducted in Aichi Prefecture. In the comparison measurement of the truck mold with CAD data using a laser tracker, it is a large mold approximately 2 meters square. Since it is a large mold, there may be instances where it falls outside of tolerance, but in such cases, we immediately explain the situation and proceed with corrections. One of our strengths in measurement is that we also have knowledge related to processing, allowing us to determine how to make the necessary corrections. 【Overview】 ■ Location: Aichi Prefecture ■ Content: Measurement of truck molds using a laser tracker ■ Measurement Method: Comparative measurement with CAD data * The CAD provided is for reference, and the actual product may differ from the image. * For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of bathtub mold measurement conducted in Aichi Prefecture. This measurement involves comparing the bathtub mold with CAD using a laser tracker, and the mold is about 1 square meter in size. While this type of measurement is relatively common, we are mindful to conduct it more quickly than the last time, and to discuss any points that differ from the usual process. 【Overview】 ■ Location: Aichi Prefecture ■ Content: Measurement of bathtub mold using a laser tracker ■ Measurement Method: Comparison measurement with CAD data *Please note that the image is for reference purposes, and the actual product may differ from what is shown. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Here is a case study of a business trip for measurements at a major company T located in Nagoya. The calibration of large equipment was conducted using a laser tracker, where a measurement sphere was placed at the tip of the spindle to measure its position before and after movement. Due to the size of the equipment, it took some time to position the laser tracker in a location where the laser could reach the entire setup, but we were able to finish significantly earlier than the scheduled time. This measurement is requested once a year and is very important for ensuring the accuracy of large equipment.

In "Comparison Measurement with CAD Data," the origin on the CAD and the origin of the measured object can be aligned, allowing for fitting on the software. As the measurement sphere is slid along the shape, the values in the watch window change in real-time, enabling error verification. The values displayed are based on the CAD data set to zero, making it easier to assess errors. In this measurement, we conduct everything from proposals to corrections while viewing the measurement results in real-time. 【Features of Sawatec】 ■ Track Record: Over 150 measurements per year (including numerous in aviation, automotive, heavy industry, railways, shipbuilding, etc.) ■ Flexibility: Able to accommodate additions and changes to measurement locations on-site ■ Proposals: Understanding the trends of the measured objects and making suggestions to customers ■ Experience: Many staff members with extensive on-site experience *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

General "reverse engineering" can be performed anywhere as long as the necessary equipment is available. However, the generated IGES data has limitations such as poor reproducibility, uneven surfaces, and cannot be used for design or analysis purposes. At Sawatec, we leverage our extensive experience and knowledge in design and processing to provide data that meets customer needs in ways that other companies cannot. 【Features of Sawatec】 ■ Track Record: Over 150 measurements per year (including numerous in aerospace, automotive, heavy industry, railways, and shipbuilding) ■ Flexibility: Able to accommodate additional or changed measurement locations on-site ■ Proposals: Understanding the trends of the measured objects and making suggestions to customers ■ Experience: Many staff members with rich on-site experience *For more details, please refer to our catalog or feel free to contact us.

Wear on the plate mounting surface of a press machine inevitably occurs after years of use. Relying on the manufacturer for equipment repairs can often be very costly and time-consuming. Therefore, our proposal is to create a plate that matches the worn shape. We can take portable measurements to capture the worn shape inside the press machine and create a plate that fits perfectly. 【Issues and Solutions】 ■ Examples of Problems - Defective products are produced - Plate mounting bolts break easily - Maintenance is difficult ■ Examples of Solutions - On-site workers make shim adjustments - Craftsmen perform fitting - Adjustments are made until a good product is achieved *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Processing CFRP is said to be very difficult due to severe tool wear, which can lead to burrs, delamination, and fiber remnants (delamination) when the cutting tool becomes dull. Our company has developed CFRP processing technology that eliminates burrs and interlayer delamination by optimizing tool selection and processing conditions. Please leave the machining of CFRP to Sawatec Co., Ltd. 【Processing Example (Surface)】 ■ Material: T700 (Thermosetting CFRP) ■ Dimensions: A 75mm B 100mm t 10mm ■ Drilling: φ6.375, Pocket machining 3mm, Trim machining 10mm ■ Even the corners, which are prone to delamination and delamination, can be processed beautifully. *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.
