Scancontrol

The idiamCONTROL sensor system precisely measures the inner diameter of bore holes such as in extruders in order to determine the wear. The idiamCONTROL is guided into the bore hole and determines the bore hole diameter while being pulled out. Wear-based tolerance violations are automatically displayed and can be output via USB.

Application examples are often found where the standard versions of the sensors and the controller are performing at their limits. For these special tasks, the measurement systems can be modified according to the customer’s individual requirements. Changes requested include, for example, modified designs, target calibration, mounting options, individual cable lengths, modified measuring ranges or sensors with integrated controller.

The high-precision surfaceCONTROL 3D 3500 snapshot sensor is used for automated optical inspection of geometry, shape and surfaces on diffusely reflecting surfaces. The surfaceCONTROL 3D 3500 is characterized by its compact design and high measurement accuracy combined with high speed data processing. With a z-axis repeatability of up to 0.4 µm, the sensor sets new standards in high-precision inline 3D measurement technology. It reliably detects the smallest flatness deviations and height differences. Two models cover different measuring fields.

The new generation of Micro-Epsilon’s 3D sensors impresses with high accuracy during measurement and assessment of components and surfaces. The surfaceCONTROL and reflectCONTROL inspection systems from Micro-Epsilon are intended for matt and shiny surfaces respectively. The 3D snapshots are recorded in a short time and provide detailed 3D point clouds. These 3D sensors are used, e.g., for geometric component testing, position determination, presence checks and the measurement of flatness or planarity. Thanks to their high performance, the sensors are used for inline applications, on robots and also for offline inspection.
