Taking measurement seriously

Blue Diamond, which specialises in the design and manufacture of custom-made mechanical components in metal, plastic and rubber, sets great store by its quality control procedures and the company’s ability to deliver a product which is consistently correct in every detail.

The Baty machine allows measurements obtained from the actual component to be compared with the dimensions and tolerances in the original engineering drawing, any inconsistencies being highlighted by the CNC programming.

The machine can also be used to create 2D engineering drawings by simply scanning an existing component – useful when a part has been re-engineered or if its original drawings have been lost or damaged.
