50% faster turbine blade inspection

February 2018

Checking critical dimensions of complex, high-volume parts can be difficult and time consuming, particularly when it's necessary to conduct checks on 100% of parts manufactured.

At Europea Microfusioni Aerospaziali – a turbine blade manufacturing company based in Morra De Sanctis near Avellino, Italy, these checks are now performed using Renishaw's PH20 5-axis probe head. Compared to using a 3-axis system, cycle times have been reduced by up to 50%.
