Hollywood, for example, used it for the film “The Core”. In sports, “core training” means the training of the central body part, in physics “core” is the most important part of a nuclear reactor in which the chain reaction takes place.

Granite as Foundation for High Accuracy Measurement

The use of granite in 3D coordinate metrology has already proven itself for many years. No other material fits with its´ natural properties as well as granite to the requirements of metrology. The requirements of measuring systems regarding temperature stability and durability are high. They have to be used in a production-related environment and be robust. Long-term downtimes caused by maintenance and repair would significantly impair production. For that reason, WENZEL uses granite for all important components of measuring machines. (Image 1)
