Damage and wear to tooling is sometimes unavoidable and can lead to poor parts, so it is essential to check for this during the manufacturing process, especially in applications where surface quality is of paramount importance.
On-machine scanning with SPRINT™ technology can identify common surface defects such as excessive waviness from worn tooling and step mismatch from different tools – allowing corrective action to be taken whilst the component is still in the machine.
