Machine Tool Calibration and Condition Reporting
The quality of every component produced on a CNC machine is highly dependent on the machine’s performance. Problems with a machine inevitably result in inspection failures, scrapped components and unexpected downtime.
All too frequently, quality and inspection procedures identify problems after components have been produced. However, this is often too late to rectify any of the incurred scrap and down-time costs.
For this reason it is essential that your machine performance is checked professionally.
A complete machine performance check and laser test calibration by WD Engineering can increase productivity, improve component quality and cut down on expensive rejects. It will also help to maintain and look after your valuable machine tools.
New installation
Continuous component accuracy
Set higher standards
Plan better with predictive maintenance
Compliance

Faster and more thorough
Accurate, and stable at all temperatures and pressures

For compensation of tool point errors on 5 axis machines, WD Engineering use this to apply offset corrections to the controller.
UKAS Calibration and Certification
For customer requiring independent UKAS Calibration and Certification to confirm their machine accuracy performance, WD Engineering work closely with CD Measurements who perform the final calibrations and issue UKAS calibration certificates. Their measuring uncertainties and experience in this field is probably the best available in the uk. Their UKAS Schedule is shown.
Complimentary software solutions
Software packages for tasks such as the calibration of flatness of items such as surface plates and tables complements and enhances our calibration systems for outstanding accuracy.
Accurate, and stable at all temperatures and pressures
Our patented ball bar testing system - Contisure - which benefits from our wide experience of machine tool error assessment provides a versatile machine tool condition monitoring system.
