ACCRETECH (Europe) GmbH and ZEISS are realigning their long-standing close partnership. As part of this, ACCRETECH (Europe) GmbH will take over sales and customer support of the “Form and Surface” product area from ZEISS in Germany from 1 April 2022. The team that previously supported the business at ZEISS is moving to ACCRETECH Europe – the contact persons for customers will thus remain the same.

At its Steyr site, ZF uses mobile surface measuring instruments from ACCRETECH’s HANDYSURF+ series for first part approval in metrology – Data is logged in the ZEISS Calypso metrology software together with dimensional measurement data of the components taken from ZEISS coordinate measuring machines. This End-to-end digital solution ensures convenient data management, traceability and process stability at ZF.

ACCRETECH’s new form measuring instruments of the RONDCOM NEX series have a modular design. This ensures that the instruments, which can measure form, diameter and surface simultaneously with high precision, are suitable for a wide range of measuring tasks and offer retrofitting capabilities.

Given the intense competition between engineering subcontractors it is often the businesses with unique selling points that stand out from the crowd. In addition to establishing a reputation for delivering on time and on budget, the main differentiator of RDS Precision Engineering is its highly developed quality ethos. To help ensure the premium quality of the company’s output, regular investments are made in high-precision inspection equipment such as the SURFCOM NEX 041.

The manual exchange and the associated repositioning of different workpieces or multiple measuring points generally take time. Such set-up times can be kept to a minimum with the right accessories. Unproductive machine times are therefore reduced, resulting in greater throughput.
