Accurate measurements for transmissions

Jiangyin Hongguan Machinery Co., Ltd. has the coordinate measuring machine (CMG) in cooperation with WENZEL LHRT 1512 introduced with turntable. This innovative solution combines gear measurement and coordinate measurement in a single machine and sets a new standard for quality improvements in the transmission industry.

As essential components in mechanical engineering, the quality of transmissions directly influences the performance and lifetime of the entire equipment. The requirements for their inspection are correspondingly high, as even the smallest errors can have serious consequences. Traditional measurement methods often reach their limits when it comes to precision and efficiency requirements. Hongguan Machinery has risen to this challenge and has continuously optimized both its technical expertise and quality assurance system. German precision equipment, including a tooth flank grinding machine and the coordinate measuring machine imported by WENZEL, forms the basis for the outstanding quality of Hongguan Machinery.

Against this background, Hongguan Machinery decided to work with WENZEL and implemented the LH RT 1512 KMG, which is equipped with a high-precision air storage table. This technology ensures exceptional measurement accuracy and stability. Thanks to the high measurement speed and precise results, Hongguan Machinery is able to record the product parameters quickly and precisely and thus ensure that the gears produced meet the high standards and strict requirements of customers.

As part of the selection process, Hongguan Machinery has comprehensively evaluated several renowned companies. WENZEL impressed with outstanding functionality, precision, excellent service and a convincing price-performance ratio. The introduction of WENZEL coordinate measurement technology not only solved the problem of long inspection cycles and poor adherence to schedules, but also increased inspection efficiency and significantly optimized process quality.

The introduction of WENZEL coordinate measurement technology has significantly advanced Hongguan Machinery in the transmission sector and solved numerous complex measurement problems. Before WENZEL LHRT KMG was introduced, the products had to be sent to the customer for inspection, which led to long turnaround times and delays in the production schedule. This was a significant obstacle to the goal of ensuring highly efficient and high-quality production.

The WENZEL LHRT CMG enables precise 4-axis measurements of rotating parts as well as reliable measurements of conventional components. This allows Hongguan Machinery to carry out multiple measurements with just one workpiece tension, which significantly increases measurement accuracy and efficiency. One example: Large gears, which require lifting tools to load and unload, previously had to be measured with two separate machines. This led to numerous unnecessary work steps and reduced measurement performance. The new WENZEL measuring machine makes it possible to carry out both shape and position tolerances as well as gear measurements in the same coordinate system. This increases measurement accuracy, reduces errors and increases efficiency. In addition, the use of a single machine saves costs for purchase, operation and maintenance.

The successful implementation of WENZEL KMG brought Hongguan Machinery significant benefits:

Efficient measurements

A machine supports both the measurement of shape and position tolerances as well as the gear measurement, which saves manpower and time.

‍
Accurate measurements‍

A one-time tension of the workpiece enables multiple measurements. The air storage table ensures maximum accuracy and improves product quality.

‍
cost savings‍

Reducing machine requirements and maintenance costs increases the profitability of the company.

In a fast-paced world such as today, service plays a decisive role. WENZEL not only provides Hongguan Machinery with first-class products, but also professional and timely service, which strengthens customer trust and loyalty. This customer-oriented service philosophy is the key to WENZEL's success in a highly competitive market. Quality manager Cheng Chen emphasizes: “The professional support provided by the WENZEL team in case of technical problems has enabled us to always operate our production line efficiently and thus significantly increase production efficiency and product quality.” The WENZEL machine is much more than just a measuring device; it is a decisive guarantee of high-quality production at Hongguan Machinery.

Looking ahead, Cheng Chen has great expectations of WENZEL: “I am convinced that WENZEL will continue to expand its technological advantages to provide even better and more efficient inspection solutions for Hongguan Machinery. At the same time, I am looking forward to further deepening the cooperation between Hongguan Machinery and WENZEL in order to jointly drive technological progress and quality improvement in the mechanical engineering industry. ”
