Case study: NC Service - Wireless QC20-W ballbar loses cable and gains support (pdf)

Peter Jönsson, Managing Director of NC Service, Gothenburg, Sweden, has used the Renishaw QC10 ballbar (and Renishaw laser calibration systems) for years, and is convinced of the benefits, but is delighted to take delivery of the new QC20-W wireless ballbar. As he comments, “QC10 has been one of our most important tools, and 100% reliable, since 2004 – we will continue to use it for some jobs. However, most machines must be run with the doors shut, and with large test radii on bridge machines the cable can become a problem – QC20 makes it much easier. I’m also looking forward to using the ‘volumetric analysis’ function.”
