"In general any visual wear was very minimal and unmeasurable."
Report characteristics provided by Independent source "Dynamic Innovative Mold Building" a BIG thanks to them for allowing Maxx to show them the "Proofs in the pudding" ..my kids would call me a boomer...
- Test assumes the average electrode is cycled into a 3R-carbide chuck 5 times per week (260 times per year)
- Test Cycled one Maxx Tooling 50mm holder 2,844 times capturing offset data every 6th tool change
- Holder reference elements were noted to be out of square by .0005 prior to test, simulating potential worse case scenario
- Reference elements had thin layer of red marker applied prior to test to visually show any wear on bearing surfaces
- Before and after CMM results were taken to compare and verify offset data of the electrode
In general any visual wear was very minimal and unmeasurable
All offset data and CMM Data appear to be within an acceptable range
Assumptions
Test assumes the average electrode is cycled into a 3R-carbide chuck 5 times per week (260 times per year)
Test Cycled one Maxx Tooling 50mm holder 2,844 times capturing offset data every 6th tool change
In general any visual wear was very minimal and unmeasurable
All offset data and CMM Data appear to be within an acceptable range
Reference elements seat using corner like 3R, not on an angled surface
