The demands of the customer William Hughes Ltd send out millions of parts a year, and all of them have to be right. Different types of product need to be right in different ways, sometimes a vernier calliper, 1:1 drawing or a gauge can be enough and sometimes it takes more advanced equipment. Below, you can see the main kinds of product that we make, and the machines available to measure them:
Wireforms & Assemblies - CMM's When you are making 3D wireforms, sometimes a gauge or 1:1 cannot measure the level of accuracy the customer wants, so a CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) will have to be used. You can use a CMM to meausure the cylinders of wire between the bends, and create a 3D map of intersection points, that is extremely accurate. Shown to the right are the 2 CMM's at William Hughes.
