Reproducible Clamping as the Basis for Precise Measurement Results

When developing a suitable measurement strategy, reproducible clamping of the workpiece plays a central role. Before the actual measurement process can be started in the ZEISS CALYPSO software, the component must be accessible and securely fixed on the measuring device without tension.

Important Questions Before Clamping

Clarify beforehand whether measurements should be function-related or production-related. This decision significantly influences the choice of clamping method and the overall measurement strategy.

Suitable Clamping Devices

Check the available tools for stable and reproducible clamping:

  • DK Clamping Devices – Flexible solution for various geometries
  • Three-jaw Chuck – Ideal for rotationally symmetrical components
  • Vice – Quick fixation for simple geometries
  • Alufix – Modular clamping system for complex clamping situations

Tip: Custom Clamping Fixture

For high volumes and complex geometries, designing a custom fixture is worthwhile. This ensures maximum reproducibility and significantly speeds up the measurement process.
