CNC Machine Calibration Services

Precision Tuning for Optimal Performance

At Hogan Technical Solutions, we understand that the accuracy of your CNC machines directly impacts the quality of your output. Our expert calibration services ensure your machines maintain the highest levels of precision, resulting in superior product quality, reduced waste, and increased productivity.

Why Calibration Matters

  1. Enhanced Accuracy: Properly calibrated machines produce parts with tighter tolerances.
  2. Consistency: Ensure uniform quality across all parts and batches.
  3. Reduced Scrap: Minimize waste due to out-of-spec parts.
  4. Increased Productivity: Well-calibrated machines operate more efficiently.
  5. Extended Machine Life: Proper calibration reduces wear and tear on machine components.
  6. Compliance: Meet industry standards and customer requirements for precision.

Our Comprehensive Calibration Approach

Advanced Measurement Techniques

We utilize state-of-the-art tools and methods:

  • Laser interferometry for linear axis calibration
  • Electronic levels for rotary axis calibration
  • Ball bar testing for circular interpolation accuracy
  • Spindle analysis tools for runout and alignment checks
  • Volumetric compensation techniques for large machines

Motion Control Calibration

Fine-tuning of:

  • Servo motor and drive systems
  • Acceleration and deceleration profiles
  • Velocity and position loop gains

Workholding System Calibration

Verification of:

  • Fixture plate flatness and parallelism
  • Pallet change repeatability
  • Rotary table accuracy and backlash

Geometric Calibration

We meticulously check and adjust:

  • Straightness and squareness of axes
  • Parallelism of spindles and tables
  • Backlash and pitch error compensation
  • Rotary axis centerline alignment

Initial Assessment

  • Evaluate current machine performance
  • Review historical data and past issues
  • Discuss your specific accuracy requirements

Tooling System Calibration

  • Tool length measurement systems
  • Tool change repeatability
  • ATC (Automatic Tool Changer) alignment

Software Compensation

Implementation of:

  • Volumetric error compensation
  • Thermal growth compensation
  • Axis reversal error compensation

Our Calibration Process

  1. Pre-Calibration Analysis: We assess the current state of your machine and identify areas needing attention.
  2. Environmental Control: We ensure stable conditions for accurate calibration.
  3. Systematic Calibration: We methodically work through each system, making precise adjustments.
  4. Post-Calibration Testing: We perform comprehensive tests to verify improvements.
  5. Documentation: We provide detailed reports of all measurements and adjustments.
  6. Operator Training: We offer guidance on maintaining calibration between service visits.
