1 / 2Pages

CHECKBOX - Smart Factory Inspection System (SFIS) API, recognizing manufacturing industry’s increasing demand for part measurement automation, with a higher degree of accuracy, has developed its Smart Factory Inspection System with true 6DoF real-time 3D robotic measurement incorporating its proven metrology technology and calibration components. SFIS can be delivered as a customized integrated solution or as a standard production inspection cell. The standard API SFIS CheckBoxTM is an optical 3D measuring solution developed for the inspection of production parts and installation integral with manufacturing operations. Modular in design, and scalable in size, CheckBox utilizes a 6 axis industrial robot with realtime encoded robot position using the benchmark API 6DoF RADIAN Pro laser tracker. Real time enhanced robot accuracy completely eliminates any requirement for problematic stickers used by photogrammetric robotic measuring systems and provides comparable horizontal-arm CMM accuracy. For larger part inspection the robot is mounted on a linear rail. CHECKBOX MODEL INTERNAL DIMENSIONS • A turn-key solution that unifies the strengths of Laser Tracker and 3D Area Scanner for unmatched global accuracy • Intelligent run-time software is a backbone of the system • API’s Radian and RapidScan are metrology tools • Robotic Arm is used as manipulator for large scale me

API's RapidScan ultra-high dynamic range, 3.2 mega-pixel, stereo imaging, hybrid optical sensor captures a 3D point cloud of the part within its large field of view. Capable of measuring highly reflective and composite surfaces RapidScan completely eliminates the need for impractical production part spraying. With sub pixel edge detection, the (hybrid pattern) optical projection generates a highly accurate dense point cloud. The systems metrology evaluation software provides point cloud geometry extraction and surface topology creation providing direct comparison with part digital model....
