INB Vision is your reliable partner for measuring and inspection systems that are used equally by vehicle manufacturers and supplier companies. The measuring systems enable process stability, production reliability as well as quality. Thanks to the Micro-Epsilon Group's global network, INB Vision enables efficient project management on site.
The surfaceCONTROL 3D 2500 measuring system is used for defect detection on diffuse reflecting surfaces. In combination with robots, it is possible to use several surfaceCONTROL sensors for fully automatic defect detection on complete body shells. By means of a learning process (Digital Master), local form defects such as bumps, dents and waviness are reliably detected, while permissible deviations are tolerated.
The surfaceCONTROL systems consist of sensor, robot, computer and software and interface package. Depending on the requirements, different versions of the system are available, which are configured to customer specifications. The number of surfaceCONTROL sensors and robots required can be flexibly adapted to the necessary throughput.
The surfaceCONTROL systems have an integrated 6D offset correction that quickly compensates for position tolerances. The car body position in the space is calculated fully automatically. The measuring positions of the sensors are then adjusted, allowing the measurement to be carried out quickly, precisely and with repeat accuracy.
The requirements for attachments and interior parts made of different materials (aluminium, steel, plastic, leather, etc.) are just as high as for the actual bodywork. Depending on the size of the part to be inspected, surfaceCONTROL 3D 2500 or 3500 sensors are used for defect detection on such components or even on individual body parts. This enables the objective and reproducible detection and classification of defects.
The systems are used, for example, to inspect fuel filler flaps, bumpers and other attachments as well as to detect defects on cockpit elements or to inspect individual body parts in the press shop and body shop. The systems can be used inline, atline or for sample testing.
