Blum-Novotest Inc. introduces the FormControl X, a user-friendly measurement software for machining centers, designed for automated quality control of workpieces in individual and series production. It can enable maximum productivity and reduce scrap by monitoring measurements. The software can also enable automated monitoring of machining processes in line with the principle of statistical process control (SPC). The process is managed based on the recorded measured values and previously defined warning and control limits.

The FormControl X alignment function interacts with unmanned operation and in cooperation with robot solutions. This feature detects the current workpiece position and alignment right after clamping and automatically adjusts the reference points of the machining program to the actual position of the workpiece. This can make reliable, automated machining of parts with small allowances possible. FormControl X also prepares the recorded data in graphic format that can be visualized and evaluated by the operator using the web browsers of any end devices. The company says that FormControl X accelerates manufacturing processes, makes them more transparent, increases quality and optimizes manufacturing cost.
