The fastest and most accurate profile metrology system available for long parts or multiple short parts. The P4K's strongest feature is the ease of use by line operators -- it is able to scan multiple single parts or one long part in one operation.
Conventional methods measuring long components to a high degree of precision require high magnification vision systems and precision stages that require a fair amount of programming and are not suited for the factory floor.
On the P4K, parts are simply clamped in a fixture and scanned with a mouse click. It has the ability to scan multiple single parts or one long part in one operation. By pulling the product through a laser gauge using a high precision linear stage, and matching diameter and length readings in real time at a rate of 10,000 readings per second, we are able to produce an astounding data set, where we gather a diameter and length reading every 30 millionths of an inch.
Reporting, lot control, and data aggregation for SPC analysis are standard features. However, the P4K's strongest feature is the ease of use by line operators.
The best way to determine that the P4K will meet and exceed your measurement needs is to have us perform a Gauge R&R study using your actual parts! Please contact Glebar for further information.
Remote Connectivity 
By pulling the product through a laser gauge using a high precision linear stage and matching diameter and length readings in real time at a rate of 10,000 readings per second, the P4K can provide diameter and length readings every 30 millionths of an inch, resulting in superior gauge repeatability and reliability.
On the GT-610 CNC machine, the P4K serves as a setup reduction device while providing feedback of the entire component geometry for all parts in a cycle to automatically correct the grinding wheel dress shape (correcting the wheel dress shape from any measurement device is patent-pending). For other compatible Glebar machines, (GT-610, GT-610 SD, CAM.2 and GT-9AC) the P4K serves as a closed-loop quality control device that feeds back diameter to the control system for automatic size compensation.
The GO/NO GO result is derived automatically as the system locates transition points on the scan.Using an optical micrometer with no moving parts ensures stable calibration and no deterioration of diameter readings over time, the P4K is configured for long-term, worry-free operation. Designing a template for inspection is as simple as picking points on a graph. The GO/NO GO result is derived automatically as the system locates transition points on the scan.
Remote connectivity simplifies troubleshooting and maintenance.
Glebar prides itself on selling precision grinding machine system solutions, tailored to your specific needs. Below is a small subset of applications, performed on this machine, that Glebar has provided solutions for over the years.
Challenge: Lack of a clear, simple method to inspect the geometric profile of many components, including titanium aerospace fasteners. Existing systems are slow, unreliable, and complex to operate.
