Utilità Chooses Vicivision as its Perfect Partner

Summary

“Utilità is so lucky to be dealing with the most important thing in the world: people," said Stefano Castegnaro, operation manager. "We work with the aviation and aeronautics industry, as well as supplying dental, orthopedic and maxillofacial implants. Technology is definitely one of our allies, it’s an essential support system our daily work."

The importance of an optical measuring maching to check tool wear

Nicola Zamberlan, CTO & Founder of Utilità, said, “We make about 1.5 million pieces a year, broken down in 2,500 orders, so we are able to produce extremely complex parts. An optical measuring machine is so important for understanding tool wear that might occur during processing."

“In 2004 we purchased our first Vicivision machine," Andrea Zamberlan, CTO & Founder of Utilità, said. "If a program has been created well, all we have to do is position a clean part, press start and Vici does the rest. We check all the measurements, both in terms of shape and positioning, because Vici machines enable us to check the position of certain processes carried out on the part."

The operator-friendly measuring machine

“The Vici machine enables me to check both the diametrical measurements and all the incisions along the length of the part, so in a single scan… with a good program, we can check all the external dimensions in one go," said Zamberlan. "That’s where a great machine, like a Vici, makes the difference, it helps us speed up the process, but above all, it facilitates the operator’s work. We went to Vici to do the first measurement tests and we were pleasantly surprised with the results.”
