Touch-and-Scan Robotic Inspection Cell
July 1, 2015
Kreon has announced the full integration of its range of 3D laser scanners together with Metrolog X4 i-Robot designed for inline robotic inspection.
Kreon's 3D laser scanners are easily interchanged and mounted on portable arms, machine tools, manual and DCC CMMs, and now Kreon laser scanners are fully integrated with the Metrolog X4 i-Robot software and can be used on any kind of robots, according to the company.
"This is a great solution for a completely new market - a better way to automate inline quality control," said Thierry Rebillard, President of Kreon Technologies. "Kreon in partnership with Metrologic has created a completely new solution combining non-contact (high-speed laser scanners) and contact (touch probes) measurement technologies. Using an optical tracking camera system, the accuracy is totally independent of the robot's positioning precision. This fully automated solution is based on the Zephyr II Blue 3D laser scanner high-level technology."
According to the company, some of the benefits of this new technology include:
- Fast scanning of any type of surface
- Combining touch-and-scan measurements in the same sensor
- Easily switch from scanning to probing
- Ready for all geometrical and free form analysis
- Programming and reporting integrated.
