Enhanced Analytical Gear Inspection Systems



Gleason Corporation's 300GMS Analytical Gear Inspection System is designed to enable faster complete inspection of automotive, aerospace and other smaller gears, as well as gear cutting tools and non-gear parts. The latest addition to the GMS Series (with models available for gears up to 3,000 mm in diameter) includes features such as surface finish measurement and prismatic feature measurement.

"The 300GMS is the first GMS system to feature the Windows 7-based Gleason GAMA 3.0 applications software suite which, like its GAMA 2.0 predecessor, offers users a highly intuitive user interface and simple input screens for programming of workpieces and cutting tool data," said a company spokesperson. Gama 3.0 also includes tutorial information on the gear features with verbiage, pictures and videos that are user editable. Those features, combined with ease of set-up, a state of the art remote I/O controls system and improved movement optimization, significantly reduce the cycle times required for the complete inspection of almost any gear or gear tool as compared to other gear measurement systems on the market."

The 300 GMS also features a new generation Renishaw 3D scanning probe head to provide accuracy and flexibility for the complete inspection of all kinds of gears and gear cutting tools and, in particular, finer pitch gears.

The 300GMS is equipped with an ergonomically mounted operator workstation and an advanced operator interface - both designed to improve the operator's effectiveness at every stage of the inspection process.

The advanced operator interface features tools such as an environmental monitoring station to record temperature and humidity as well as video telephony, note pad and voice mail messaging capability, Gleason Connect for enhanced remote diagnostic support, creation of standard work instructions, online training tools, multi-lingual communication and more.
