CLM-LSR – LASER-BASED MACHINING SYSTEM

Closed Loop Manufacturing (CLM) systems from EDM Intelligent Solutions pair some of the best high-precision laser ablation machine tools with fully integrated multisensor 3D metrology and tactile inspection technologies, all in one machine. This adaptive manufacturing system brings self-guided production into reality by allowing the machine tool to continuously inspect and adjust its processes in order to meet the ever-shrinking tolerances on high precision workpieces in even the hardest materials. Closed-Loop Manufacturing offers a state-of-the-art, self-optimizing manufacturing intelligence and adaptive machining method for the production of precision components in a variety of overall size ranges.
