Measuring machines, general
KNM 7C
The machine has been optimally adapted for the determination of geometrical errors at bearing rings, slewing rings and cylinder-sha-ped workpieces. The CNC-controlled 4-axis structure allows for the expansion to a significantly larger component range, such as gears or 3D-measurement tasks on prismatic workpieces. All machines of the KNM C series are equipped with state-of-the-art drive techno-logy (linear motors), and feature generously dimensioned guiding cross-sections and large bearing clearances.The base plate, vertical columns and axes are made of granite. This ensures stable thermal behaviour. Air spring elements un-derneath the base plate safely shield from jolts and vibrations. The raised Y-guide and a drive close to the centre of gravity reducethe dynamic distortions to a minimum. Measurement uncertain-ties are at MPEE? 0.6 ?m + L/400 | MPETHP? 0.8 ?m. Reliablesoftware is available for fully automated measurement cycles.

Measuring machine for roundness and linearity measurement
KAPP GmbH & Co. KG
Measuring machines for roundness and linearity measurement
The KNM 2X / 4X / 6X / 9X analytical measuring machines are designed for high-precision measurements of gears, gear tools and rotationally symmetric workpieces.
All guides and base plates made of granite are extremely stable in the long-term and have identically low expansion coefficients. Air bearings with emergency operation properties ensure perfect and wear-free guides without short-term errors. Air spring elements underneath the base plates safely shield from jolts and vibrations. Separate bases are not required.
Non-ferrous linear and torque motors of the rotary tables ensure ultimate position precisions and path accuracy. Despite the compact design, spacious travel ranges ensure a tangential generating motion towards the base circle for any profile. Based on the requirements, different scanning touch probe systems can be used. The control cabinet can be arranged freely.

Measuring machine for roundness and linearity measurement
KAPP GmbH & Co. KG
Measuring machines for roundness and linearity measurement
The equipment of the KNM P series has been optimally adap-ted directly to the production machine according to the specific customer requirements regarding the autonomous measurement of gears, ring-shaped workpieces such as bearing rings, housings etc. The combination of base plate and rotary table in a customi-sed design (docking station) forms a full-featured 4-axis measu-ring device. Measurements can even be carried out without rota-ry table directly in the workshop area. In the KNM P machines, specially designed high-precision mechanics add to optimal ac-cessibility with state-of-the-art drive technology (linear motors). The CNC-controlled 3-axis structure allows for checking all gear parameters or general workpiece profiles. Arbitrary workpiece diameters and easy transport are especially worth emphasising. The measuring equipment is placed on a sturdy base connected directly to the production machine or foundation.

Measuring machine for roundness and linearity measurement
KAPP GmbH & Co. KG
Measuring machines for roundness and linearity measurement
According to customer-specific requirements, the KNM X se-ries can be either designed as a stationary machine for medium and larger sized gears, or as a docking station. For this purpo-se, any size of the machine base can be combined with a ro-tary table and a transportable 3-axes measuring device. The KNM X machines boast high-precision mechanics with opti-mal accessibility, laser-based safety equipment, large bearing clearances and generously dimensioned guiding cross-sections. Linear motors are used in all linear axes. High-precision rota-ry tables with air or hydrostatic bearing (diameter of 500 to 1,800 mm) feature direct drives / through-holes. Controlled air spring elements underneath the base plates safely shield from jolts and vibrations. No special foundations are required. The use of drives close to the centre of gravity ensures a low level of dynamic distortions.
