Subject: Cement is manufactured in a so-called turn-tube oven. Before the raw material gets into the turn-tube oven it is prepared in the most visible parts of a cement factory, the heat exchanger towers. Here the raw material is pre-heated in cyclones - steel cylinders with a diameter of 4 to 6 m - by hot exhaust gases up to about 1000 °C and partly calcined, i.e. de-acidified. After this preparation the material is transferred directly into the turn-tube oven where the actual burning-process takes place. The oven itself is a about 50 to 70 m long, slightly tilted steel tube with a diameter of 4 to 5 m which turns around its longitudinal axis (max. 20 rpm). Here the oven flour minerals, converted with this chemical process at 1450 °C, will be converted into a sintered clinker mi...

The TomoScope® S Plus and Werth longlife transmission sources with X-ray voltages of up to 240 kV enable fast measurements with high resolution.X-ray voltages of up to 240 kV allow even large and thick-walled battery cells to be penetrated. The Werth ClearCT ensures low-artifact measurements in a short time. As the principle eliminates cone beam and ring artifacts, the measurement errors are also correspondingly lower. This means that battery cells of any mold can be measured, including prismatic cells, button and pouch batteries in addition to the cylindrical cells shown.With the unique Werth contour image processing, image, contour and element filters are available for the measurement of all geometrical characteristics in the volume section. In addition to overhangs or coating ...

Since the early 1990s, our robust and compact entry-level devices from the ScopeCheck® series and the highly accurate VideoCheck® series have been continuously developed. Now the new VideoCheck® S MZ offers even greater flexibility with up to three independent sensor axes and a new rotary/tilt axis. For example, opposing bores can be measured in the identical coordinate measuring system without reclamping.The compact ScopeCheck® S series is the perfect introduction to 3D CNC multi-sensor systems. The rigid granite construction with protected components and temperature compensation enables economical measurements in the production environment. The potential of highly accurate sensors can be fully exploited with the machines in the Werth VideoCheck...
Explanation:
Measuring machines for continuous blood glucose monitoring use an application system to place a needle sensor that must penetrate three layers of tissue of different densities on the patient. To test the application system, the entire blood glucose meter is captured with the TomoScope® S Plus. In particular, the mold, position and penetration depth of the needle sensor in artificial tissue are measured. The position and geometrical characteristics of the mechanical and electronic components are also determined.The Werth longlife transmission source enables fast measurements with high structural resolution. With the help of Werth contour image processing, needle sensor and tissue layers can be measured in any cutting edge in the digital workpiece volume. For the first time, MultiM...

Fulcrum Manual CMM CMM Case StudyFrom concept, design, and production through to assembly, Oberon Performance has gained a reputation for manufacturing “high class” aftermarket motorcycle parts and accessories that are sold throughout the world. Since its conception in 2000, Oberon Performance has been fiercely proud of the fact that they control all aspects of the design and manufacturing process. From the original concept sketch to the completed product, they use this in-house philosophy to bring fantastic motorcycle products to the market.As all the parts made must fit on the OEM motorcycle, Oberon Performance needed a way to accurately measure and re-engineer the original OEM part and the mating part on the bike. Steve Evans, technical director explains: “Before the Fulcrum, we used a ...

CT Application Examples from the Plastics Industry – Replacement of Conventional Measuring Equipment 3D coordinate measuring machines with sensor Computed tomography are now widely used in the plastics industry and are increasingly replacing standard measuring equipment. Precision in measurement coupled with a speed that is unattainable for conventional measuring instruments are particularly characteristic of the TomoScope® XS Plus systems with integrated workpiece changer. Today, the devices are used in production monitoring, quality assurance and in the development of injection molding tools, for example, to calculate tool corrections directly with the FormCorrect software package in the WinWerth® measurement software.Smaller plastic gears can also be inspected in a p...
