Application examplesFrom gear to series measurement Page 4-11

Product catalogFrom adapter plates to accessories Page 12-33

ThermoFit® Pro is a unique modular system for assembling

stylus systems for ZEISS coordinate easuring machines.

You can create stylus systems suitable for series production

with just a few components which are perfectly tailored to

each other. Increase the productivity of your coordinate

measuring machines with our innovative technology.

Rotary angle piece

We prepare prefabricated angle blanks

made of a high-grade titanium alloy

for you quickly and precisely. As an

alternative, you can manufacture the

angle pieces yourself using our blanks.

Each angle piece can be clearly identified

via an engraved item number.

Rotary star piece M3 XXT

You can quickly assemble star styli with

star end pieces. It is easy to align them in

our zero-play cone receivers. In order to

assemble exceptionally small star styli, up

to five M3 XXT styli can be inserted in the

star piece shown here.

Extensions

ThermoFit® Pro extensions are provided

with two index pins and are fixed to the

adapter plate with no risk of twisting.

Even if the extensions are repeatedly

assembled and disassembled, the angular

alignment on the cube the same.

Cone receiver

Each ThermoFit® Pro extension has

a fixed-mounted cone receiver. This

enables adjustable end pieces, e.g.

angles, stars or cubes, to be

accommodated.

Stylus systems

for series measurements

Stylus systems must remain stable and aligned at all times in series

measurements, in order to guarantee accurate measuring results. Our

innovative ThermoFit® Pro system for ZEISS VAST® stylus systems

accomplishes this task. In ThermoFit® Pro, extensions are inserted in

the cube of the adapter plate, so that they cannot twist, and are then

screwed into place. They are equipped with a fixed-mounted rotary

piece receiver. You can insert angle or star pieces directly in this rotary

receiver and align them precisely. This is easily done and saves time.

In addition to this, you save on components, because an extra rotary

piece is not required.

We have a complete range of different end pieces in stock, so that

almost any requirement can be met with our sturdy precision elements.

For for production use, we fix the alignment of the rotary pieces for

you, e.g. by laser welding. This prevents unwanted detachment during

operation or when styli are exchanged.

We prepare prefabricated angle and spatial angle blanks made of a

high-grade titanium alloy for you quickly and precisely. Or you can

manufacture the angle pieces yourself using our blanks. We will be

happy to assist you.

Application examples

Index holes

The ThermoFit® Pro system comes with

index holes. These enable twist-proof

accommodation of extensions and spatial

angle pieces with high angle accuracy.

Styli

From ruby to diamond: We offer

standard and special styli in every

conceivable design. Enter the desired

parameters in our online shop at

www.probes.zeiss.com and select

the appropriate stylus.

Spatial angles

Obliquely arranged holes require spatial angle pieces on the stylus

system. The preparation of complex spatial angle pieces – also referred

to as ball heads -- is simple with our blanks.The connection to the adapter

plate is twist-proof due to of the ThermoFit® Pro connection system with

2-pin plug-in connection. A precision manufactured spatial angle piece

can therefore be installed without alignment. As a result, you save time

when making preparations for the measurement.

Several spatial angle pieces can be attached to adapter plates with a

double cube. This helps save you the trouble of a time-intensive stylus

change.

Each spatial angle piece is marked with its unique item number and the

two installed angles. This allows you to exchange individual spatial angle

pieces, even locally and without additional alignment aids being required.

Spatial angles

The fixed spatial angle pieces are

manufactured from blanks by ZEISS.

Simply fill out the request form and order

directly from us. You can also obtain

blanks for your own production locally.

Application examples

Spatial angle pieces, long

The fixed spatial angle pieces (available

in long and short execution) are

manufactured from blanks by ZEISS.

Simply fill out the request form and order

directly from us. you can also obtain

blanks for your own production locally.

Multiple holder

You can assemble star styli and complex

stylus systems easily and quickly without

alignment with our ThermoFit® Pro

multiple holders. Index holes ensure that

there is no risk of twisting.

Multiple holders

with spatial angles

Have you ever assembled and manually aligned stylus systems with several

rotary and knuckle joints? If so, you will appreciate our multiple holders

with fixed spatial angle pieces. They eliminate the need for setup work,

and the stylus system can still be equipped with new angle pieces if

changes are required. If a number of obliquely arranged drilled holes or

other features are to be measured with a stylus system, multiple holders

with the ThermoFit® Pro interface are extremely practical. The spatial angle

pieces and extensions can be quickly and easily attached to the eightfold

holder shown on the left in such a way that they cannot twist.

We supply our customers with stylus systems just as precisely: they are

completely assembled, aligned and provided with a clear article and serial

number. You will also receive the stylus documentation for the ZEISS Stylus

System Creator in the SSC file format free of charge.

You haven‘t heard of the ZEISS Stylus System Creator? You will find all

the information about this unique productivity tool in our webshop at

www.probes.zeiss.com. You can also read success stories about

renowned companies such as General Motors which successfully work

with this tool and reduce the time required for the design and

manufacture of stylus systems by up to 40%.

Adapter plates with extensions

We offer completely pre-configured

adapter plates with a variety of

extensions. You can attach angle pieces

and multiple holders which cannot twist.

Save time by appropriately combining

just a few elements.

Application examples

Cube M5

This ThermoFit® Pro cube M5 has an

integrated cone adapter which can be

inserted directly in the rotary end piece

of an extension. Up to five styli can be

mounted on cubes.

Stepped extension

The extensions of the ThermoFit® Pro

system that range from 20 to 11 mm

enable the stable assembly of very long

styli with easy accessibility. The

extensions have a rotary end piece

fitted at the end.

FixAssist®

A tried-and-tested alignment device for

VAST® stylus systems. Shaft collisions are

prevented during your measurements

with precisely aligned stylus systems and

angles.

Quick alignment

of large stylus systems

Large stylus systems with a large number of styli have to be aligned before

use. The time required for this is drastically reduced with ThermoFit® Pro.

Only three angles have to be set up on the stylus system in the photo on

the left: The M5 cube with integrated rotary piece and the two double

angle pieces with rotary piece. All the other angles are fixed, the extensions

are secured by means of the twist-proof ThermoFit® Pro pin connection.

We also offer laser welding of rotary joints for rough use in production.

As a result, the stylus systems remain stable throughout and cannot be

misaligned during exchange of the styli.

The FixAssist® alignment device for VAST® stylus systems is a useful tool for

adjusting all the angles on stylus systems with a high degree of accuracy.

the term FixAssist® in the Search field to obtain the product-specific

information.

Double angle piece

The angle piece blank is made of a

high-grade titanium alloy and can

accommodate up to two styli in the

desired angles We will prepare it for

you quickly and precisely.

Successful application of ThermoFit Pro with GMGM reduces inspection probe tooling design and manufacturing time by 40 percent.

GM Casting Engine and Transmission Center, located in Pontiac, Michigan,

had been successfully inspecting parts with ZEISS CMMs (coordinate

measuring machines) for several years and was now looking to accelerate

and globalize the design and manufacture of the custom probe tooling to

be used on the CMMs for a new project spanning across their facilities in

North America. Using the Stylus System Creator and the new ThermoFit Pro

components from ZEISS, GM entered into the era of advanced probe too-

ling using flexible stylus systems and stylus simulations.

For years, offline quality inspection programming has been a well-known

method of developing the launch of production processes. It frees up the

CMM for existing measurements and speeds up the programming process

on a dedicated offline station. But, the design and manufacturing of custom

probe tooling for CMM operation was still time consuming. It required CAD

modeling of many new components. These custom probe tools required a

CAD engineer and a significant amount of time for any last minute changes.

They were also difficult to document and often came with long delivery

terms.

The CMM and gage engineering group of the GM Casting Engine and

Transmission Center is a centralized team of about 10 CMM programmers

and engineers responsible for supporting all of the North American quality

inspection labs for their next generation of 4 cylinder V8 engines. There

are nearly 150 ZEISS CMMs dedicated to this project, mostly ACCURAs and

PRISMOs, at various production facilities in the US, Mexico and Canada.

This team designs CMM probe tooling and writes inspection programs

for this new project and wanted more control over the reproducibility of

components at all locations, reduced design and manufacturing time for

tooling, and simple and quick tooling modifications for product changes.

Carl Zeiss 3D Automation GmbH, part of the metrology division of Carl

Zeiss, first visited the GM Casting Engine and Transmission Center in 2009

and introduced new probe extensions with rotary joint systems. GM liked

the thermal stability and carbon tube design, but was looking for fixed

machined extensions for more control at their remote inspection labs. They

also wanted some interchangeability if a probe configuration change was

needed. For this next generation project, the CMMs they purchased were

specific to the lifecycle of a particular component. Since the lifecycle could

be 5, 10 or more years depending on the product line, they also wanted

durable probe systems that would last and that could potentially be reused

at the end of the project. After collaborating and testing probe tooling

samples with GM, ZEISS 3D Automation completed development of and

launched their next generation probe tooling, called ThermoFit Pro, in 2011.

With the SSC, the design of

stylus systems is as easy as

playing with building blocks.

Angle pieces from ZEISS have

part numbers and are marked

with their characteristics for

simple documentation.

Item

The GM Casting Engine and Transmission Center started using their first

ThermoFit Pro modules in June of 2011. The new product line enables

GM to build up even the most complex stylus system using the CALYPSO

stylus simulator without the need for typical custom designing in CAD.

Generic angle blocks can be modified in the software to the desired angle

by simply choosing the according angle values. The real angle blocks are

then quickly manufactured from semi-finished parts. The finished angle

blocks can be machined either by ZEISS or if desired by their own tool

shop, as the semi-finished parts are available from stock. Each piece gets

a ZEISS part number for easy documentation and reordering.

No CAD engineer or drawing is needed and everything can be done by

their own application engineer within the Stylus System Creator. “I‘m very

impressed with the development of the CALYPSO simulation and Stylus

System Creator using ThermoFit Pro modules,” says Craig Wegienka, seni-

or manufacturing engineer at GM Casting Engine & Transmission Center.

“I was able to use the Stylus System Creator to create the entire set of

block and head tooling for our project. I simulated each individual probe

configuration in CALYPSO to verify the tooling. The simulation proved that

all tooling would work correctly.”

The library of the Stylus System Creator contains more than 1,200 different

styli, extensions and connecting elements, plus additional tools to create

virtually every kind of custom probe tooling. With the help of different

sized cubes and bars, even the most complex system can be designed and

built quickly. ThermoFit Pro modules have plug-in connections instead of

threads to help avoid angle distortions when exchanging worn styli. Even

whole branches of the stylus systems can be exchanged without having

to readjust angles. GM has about 13 sets of ThermoFit Pro tooling, each

with approximately 15 different configurations. “All of these options and

the ease of use reduce our probe tooling design and manufacture time

by about 40 percent,” states Craig. “It saves us not only time, but also

money because we don’t have to scrap probe components when there

are changes.”

The task for GM to guarantee reproducibility of their products by having

the same quality results - regardless if the parts come from a plant in

Bangalore, Shanghai, Detroit or Sao Paolo - is a big challenge as varying

employee skill levels or the availability of spare parts can cause production

delays. And product design changes require program and probe tool

modifications along with documentation changes. GM can now rely on

the ThermoFit Pro modules and the CALYPSO Stylus System Creator to

globalize quality control programs, reduce product launch time, while also

quickly adapting to any product changes.

Reproducibility of the products

guaranteed by identical quality

levels.

The procurement of replacement styli for measurement rooms and the

production department is often a complicated process. The purchasing

transaction usually costs more than the stylus itself if individual styli are

ordered. We now have a practical solution to this problem: Pre-paid

budgets (a credit balance or „pick and mix“ concept). You pay in advance

and can then order individual styli from our webshop quickly and easily as

needed – and, above all, without starting a new purchasing process.

You purchase a specific amount of credit balance from us and pay in advance.

This is the only purchase transaction that you actually have to initiate. We then

set up this credit balance in our webshop for you. You only need a user account

and internet access. When needed, you select the required styli, put them in

your shopping cart, and go to the checkout, as for any other web purchase.

The special feature is that the pre-paid budget is available to you as a payment

option. The value of your shopping cart is deducted from your credit. You do

not receive another invoice.

You can also have more than one pre-paid budget. This means that you can

set up pre-paid budgets for different measurement rooms or departments

and allow users to order by themselves. This is a very easy way of budgeting

and enables you as a supervisor or buyer to implement comprehensive and

transparent consumption control.

With pre-paid budgets, you save on purchasing costs simply by reducing the

number of order transactions in your purchasing department. But we also offer

on our own cost advantages to you: receive a discount off the actual price

by using pre-paid budgets and we offer free shipping in Germany for orders

released from pre-paid budgets.
