Measuring Systems

Optical 3D coordinate measuring machines are replacing tactile measuring systems and gages in many areas of industry. They capture more detailed and more easily interpretable quality information of an object with significantly shorter measuring times. Whereas mechanical measuring systems capture data in a point-based or linear manner, optical measuring systems return full-field data about deviations between the actual 3D coordinates and the CAD data. As this measuring data contains all the object information, in addition to the surface deviations from the CAD, the software also automatically derives detailed information such as GD&T, trimming or hole positions.

Technology

Triple Scan Prinzip

Precise fringe patterns are projected onto the surface of the object and are recorded by two cameras, based on the stereo camera principle. As the beam paths of both cameras and the projector are calibrated in advance, 3D surface points from three different ray intersections can be calculated. The result is complete measuring point distributions without holes or erratic points.

Blue Light Technology

GOM projection technology works with narrow-band blue light, which means that interfering ambient light during image acquisition can be filtered out. The light sources are so powerful that short measuring times can be achieved even on uncooperative surfaces. In addition, they have a life expectancy of well over 10,000 hours.

High image resolution and measuring speed

The ATOS sensors return full-field distributed 3D coordinates for each individual measurement. Up to 12 million independent measuring points are captured within 1 to 2 seconds. The measuringdata is characterized by very high detailed reproduction, thus also enabling very small component features to be measured.

Self-monitoring System

ATOS systems are self-monitoring. The sensor recognizes changing ambient conditions during operation and is able to compensate these changes. To do so, the software of the sensor is continuously monitoring the calibration status, the transformation accuracy, environmental changes and part movements to ensure the quality of the measuring data.

Live Tracking

The online measurement is used for the selective alignment and positioning of components to the CAD. For example, components can be aligned in their nominal position in such a way that online positioning is possible within the assembly.

Metrology Systems

ATOS

The ATOS series of industrial optical 3D scanners provide accurate scans with detailed resolution at high speeds. ATOS delivers three-dimensional measurement data and analysis for industrial components such as sheet metal parts, tools and dies, turbine blades, prototypes, injection molded parts, castings, and more.
