Speed and Accuracy in Point Cloud Capture



Optiscan, a structured light sensor, allows users to obtain high precision 3-D digitalization for reverse engineering applications, virtual metrology, automated inspection and robot guidance. "Optiscan has become an essential complement to achieve intelligent manufacturing and zero-defect manufacturing," said a company spokesperson.

Optiscan works with all types of parts, including plastic parts with shiny surfaces or dark colors, without the need to use sprays on them, put stickers or make any modification on the part.

The laser design, optics and electronics provide enhanced synchronization with the machine (CMM, CNC, robot, portable arm) for increased accuracy and repeatability.

The Optiscan optical sensors offer a new way to inspect the production quality by obtaining a digital copy of the parts with the automation of both dimensional measurements and comparisons against the CAD. Optiscan captures high definition 3-D point clouds of parts and is suitable for the automotive, aeronautical, rail, wind, electronics and consumer industries.

Combined with the M3 measurement software, Innovalia Metrology has simplified the process of reading and measuring parts. Optiscan obtains accurate information about the part without touching it, then it analyzes the information with M3 Software, a software created to acquire and process data to create digital copies of parts. "This means we can measure them repeatedly in any place or time, leading us to talk about digital metrology and approaching the concept of zero defect, digital and connected manufacturing," said the spokesperson.
