Robust 3D surface measurement of machining tools

Robust 3D surface measurement of machining tools

High cutting speed, extended tool life and short machining time ensure leading edge milling, drilling, turning, parting and grooving operations of cutting tools. The point at which a cutting tool deteriorates is a critical factor in understanding when machining tool decreases. This can be assessed by InfiniteFocus that enables non destructive measurement of cutting edges’ and radii, most crucial surface geometries that highly influence durability and speed rates of the tool.


CERATIZIT, market leader in selected industrial fields provides consistently innovative hard material products and successfully uses the optical 3D measurement device InfiniteFocus to increase quality assurance throughout accurate optical surface measurement. Particularly the robust measurements of crucial geometries such as specific angles and radii accurately provide a major benefit. Accurate comparison between the specified dimensions and realities is easily achieved.

InfiniteFocus provides robust data from all surfaces whether they are flat, curved or angled. Even at steep flanks and highly reflective surface properties robust surface metrology is provided.
