Measurement wear of crushing knifes
Objective measure of wear
Shredding or cutting blades are worn out through use and must be replaced regularly.
In order to be able to assess this wear not only qualitatively, but also to obtain a concrete numerical value, the blades were measured in detail before and after the use of LCM.
With the 3D profilometer, it is possible to measure the geometry quickly and precisely and automatically calculate the differential volume in mm³, which is a direct measure of the material removed by wear.
Requirements
- High-precision measurement of the cutting geometry
- Comparison of measurements before and after use in the machine
- Measurement from different views
- Objective (numerical) measurement of wear
- Flexible project handling and billing according to the number of measured components
Solution
- Measurement with 3D profilometer
- Graphical representation of the contour line
- Numerical evaluation of the wear (difference volume) in mm³
