QUALITY CONTROL SERVICES

We make measurements of our own and entrusted workpieces using advanced measuring tools and machines.

The metrology laboratory of EC Engineering offers geometry and deviation measurement services performed with use of contact and contactless (laser) methods (laser tracking for large size workpieces). Measurements are computer-aided to enable result integration into CAD models, performance of dimensional analysis and generation of measuring plans in form of .sat
and .igs -files. We measure workpieces in our own metrology laboratory equipped with a CMM Zeiss Contura G2 coordinate measuring machine; moreover, when making field measurements required by the Customer, a Leica AT410 mobile laser measuring device may be used.

The metrology laboratory has also the equipment to measure non-metallic coating thickness, workpiece thickness and hardness of materials (e.g.: steel, cast iron, aluminium, copper, red brass, zinc).

ZEISS CONTURA G2 Coordinate Measuring Machine

The CMM machine manufactured by ZEISS enables 3D measurements of complex workpieces. It assures high precision, wide measurement range and extensive package of measuring rods. The CMM machine guarantees very accurate and unbiased measurement results. One of the benefits offered by this measurement method is possibility to measure various objects of complex geometry with high accuracy and tight tolerances. We use this machine to measure the components for aviation applications, which require very precise fabrication.
