Product:
Vulkan: Three-dimensional measuring machine that provides a wider effective measuring range

Vulkan is a three-dimensional high-precision and highly productive coordinate measuring machine (CMM) with a symmetrical design in order to provide a wider effective measuring range.

The Vulkan measuring machine is intended for part series verification, mainly in the motor industry. It is suitable for measuring high volumes and provides easy load access as a result of its surface design.

As for the automotive sector, VULKAN is to be assembled and commissioned in the Volkswagen plant in Buenos Aires (Argentina) for the measurement of the body of its new models.

VULKAN makes it possible to perform high-precision and high-speed measurements in production centres, as required by Volkswagen worldwide. It is used for carrying out the dimensional control of single and subassembled parts, as well as of finished products. It works as traditional contact equipment to which the latest non contact sensors in the market can be fitted.

The most remarkable difference with respect to traditional measuring systems is its movement speed, which makes it possible for the first time ever to incorporate this type of machinery and functionality into the production line.

With a completely improved mechanical engineering, the machine reaches much higher speeds than traditional equipment, which makes it possible to perform the series measurement, not having to submit samples of the series to a measurement laboratory.

Some of the technical specifications of Vulcan include its specific design for achieving a wider measuring range in as little space as possible, including a new duplex symmetric arrangement, with the horizontal travel drive located underground.

Moreover, some of its main specifications include:

 Horizontal arm machine architecture with high-rigidity body.
 Speed: 50 m/min.
 Acceleration: 2 m/s2.
 Main body manufactured in stabilised steel.
 Aluminium Y-axis with arm pyramidal section.
 Linear rails in all axes for high-precision guidance.
 Rack and pinion driving system in Y-axis and ball screw in Y-axis and Z-axis.
 Renishaw readheads and optical linear heads in all machine axes.
 PHS1 heads with up to 750-mm extensions.
 Equipped with DC engines, max. power 300 VA.
 Permissible ambient temperature: +15º C a +35º C (59º F a 95º F).
 Relative air humidity: 30% a 80%.
 Sound pressure: max. 80 dbA.

INTERNATIONALLY RENOWNED BASQUE INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS

The aforementioned product is part of a catalogue published by the Society for Industrial Promotion and Restructuring (S.P.R.I. in its Spanish acronym). The catalogue compiles the main industrial products from Basque companies that have become 'internationally renowned' and are 'global leaders within their sectors'.
The publication 'Basque Country, A World Class Industry' gathers the activities of a total of 121 Basque corporations and institutions.

This compilation, though tiny, is a quite significant example of the wide range of INTERNATIONALLY RENOWNED BASQUE INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS that corporations in this country design, develop and produce, and that comply with the expectations and needs of clients around the world.

The Sectorial Associations, the Basque Clusters and Euskalit have been in charge of selecting these internationally renowned products.
