Turnkey Structured Light 3D Measurement Cell from Hexagon
PartInspect L is the First Automated Measurement System Based on AICON Scanner Technology.
Today sees the worldwide launch of PartInspect L, the first automated 3D measurement cell product based on AICON scanner technology from Hexagon’s Manufacturing Intelligence division. Featuring a choice of structured-light scanning technology paired with a flexible robot arm and housed within a modular cell format, PartInspect L uses advanced automation expertise to meet increased demand for high-speed, high-quality part measurement and analysis.The system features interactive automated scan planning, as well as robot path generation and collision avoidance systems based on CAD data that deliver a truly automated 3D measurement experience, from planning and scanning through to analysis and reporting.
“This new measurement cell format for our AICON scanner technology makes their high-speed measurement capabilities more efficient and easier to deploy,” says Dr Dirk Rieke-Zapp, Commercial Product Manager for AICON Scanners and Automation at Hexagon. “With PartInspect L, high-speed quality control can be moved into the production space without the need for advanced training for all shop-floor users, offering significant productivity enhancement.”
Preassembled and configured in the factory, PartInspect L delivers ‘plug-and-play’ functionality that allows for set-up within less than two working days and requires no engineering work onsite. The cell will deliver full and fast 3D inspection results for parts measuring up 1.5 metres in diameter/height and weighing up to 2000 kilograms. PartInspect L can be used either offline, near-line or at-line to deliver full or statistical quality control as required.
The system is available in two configurations – Efficient or HiEnd – making use of the several options within the AICON Scanner range. The Efficient configuration features the entry-level AICON PrimeScan, while the HiEnd configuration features the top-of-the-range AICON StereoScan neo. Both configurations can be augmented with the DPA Online photogrammetry add-on for increased measurement accuracy and control.
PartInspect L is now available to order from local Hexagon representatives around the world, with the first units shipping in May 2019.
