Surfacecontrol 3d 3200

surfaceCONTROL sensors are used for 3D measurements and surface inspections. The sensors use the fringe projection principle to detect diffuse reflecting surface and to generate a 3D point cloud. This point cloud is subsequently evaluated in order to recognize geometry, extremely small defects and discontinuities on the surface. Sensors with different measurement areas are available. This enables the inspection of the finest of structures on components as well as form deviations on large-area attachments. Powerful software packages are available for evaluation and parameter setting.

The surfaceCONTROL 3D 2500 snapshot sensor is used in 3D measurements for geometry, shape and surface inspection on diffuse reflecting surfaces. The sensor can be used in both automated in-line and at-line inspections as well as in the metrology room. The fringe light projection allows direct 3D measurement. The sensor is characterized by its large measuring field as well as a high measuring range depth of up to 300 mm with a repeatability of up to 3.0 µm. The captured images are transferred to the external controller where they are processed into 3D data. Three models cover different measuring fields.

The Industrial Performance Unit is a powerful computing platform for the efficient commissioning of Micro-Epsilon 3D sensors. The fully compatible controller is ideally suited to inline processes in 3D measurement tasks. The intuitive 3DInspect software with Valid3D technology enables simple and fast sensor parameter setting, which allows measurements to start immediately. The Industrial Performance Unit directly processes three-dimensional data, which is subsequently evaluated and assessed via the 3DInspect software. Results can be output via the integrated PROFINET, EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP interfaces.

3D sensors from Micro-Epsilon are equipped with an easy-to-integrate SDK (Software Development Kit). The SDK is based on the GigE Vision and GenICam industry standards including the following function blocks: Network configuration and sensor connection Extensive sensor control Transmission control of measurement images Management of user-defined parameter sets C++ sample programs and documentation Access to the sensor via GigE Vision is also possible without SDK using a GenICam client.
