Marposs Introduces Software Package for Precision Probing

Marposs introduce on Dec. 18, 2019 its Mida Hyper Probing—a software package compatible with Marposs probes. It calculates the best cycle time for machines by users entering repeatability range and workpiece positioning tolerance. This software can achieve an 80% reduction in cycle time, ensuring fast and precise probing, according to the company.

Hyper Probing can operate any compatible machine to its maximum production capacity. Its key functions include Smart Calibration, Smart Approach, and Smart Retraction, which optimize cycle time and guarantee system repeatability. With Smart Calibration, Hyper Probing calculates and customizes machine performance using an Auto-Learning algorithm, intended to optimize cycle time and productivity.  

Smart Approach provides single or double touch measuring strategies and maintains the required repeatability threshold, allowing the system to independently choose the fastest touch solution.

Smart Retraction is used with the double touch algorithm, ensuring the probe exits the workpiece and returns to the idle position. This allows measurements to be made during axes acceleration ramps and avoids useless probe open alarms.

Overall benefits include:

• Maximization of good/reject workpiece ratio
• Minimization of cycle time for each workpiece
• Up to an 80% reduction in measuring cycle time
• Required repeatability threshold guaranteed
• Machine limits observed, guaranteeing maximum productivity
