Product catalog summary
Overview
The document describes the ZeroTouch 3D Brake Inspection System, a non-contact metrology solution designed to measure brake rotors with high accuracy and speed. It is developed by DWFritz Metrology, a subsidiary of DWFritz Automation, which specializes in high-speed, non-contact inspection platforms for advanced manufacturing.
Specifications
  • External Ring Diameter: 300 mm (typical)
  • Inspection Speed: Approximately 20 seconds per cycle
  • Surface Defect Detection: Minimum defect size of 50μm
  • System Dimensions: 2,000 x 1,000 x 2,000 mm (W x D x H)
  • System Weight: 1,500 kg (3,300 lbs)
  • Multiple Non-contact Sensors
Performance and Capabilities
  • ZeroTouch measures the entire part surface, generating a high-density, micron-level point cloud.
  • It executes the inspection plan in 20 seconds, significantly faster than traditional tactile methods.
  • The system measures all surfaces in 3D and identifies defects, enhancing accuracy and throughput in production.
Key Measurements
  • Bore Diameter: 0.09 μm
  • Flatness: 0.17 μm
  • Runout: 0.13 μm
  • Parallelism between Friction Surfaces: 0.10 μm
  • Friction Surfaces Thickness Variation: 0.09 μm and 0.10 μm
Applications
The system is suitable for precision manufacturing and the automotive industry, providing real-time geometry measurement and defect detection for brake rotors.

ZeroTouch® Application Notes: Brake Inspection-1

NON-CONTACT 3D BRAKE INSPECTION SYSTEM Our client sought a new solution that would accurately measure geometry and detect defects for all of the brake rotors produced in real time. • ZeroTouch measured the entire part surface, generating a high-density, micron-level point cloud. • ZeroTouch executed the inspection plan in just 20 seconds versus the tactile methods, which took 1 minute. • ZeroTouch measured all surfaces in 3D and identified defects too. Increases Accuracy Point Cloud Increases Throughput Advances Production Bore diameter Flatness Runout Parallelism between friction surfaces Friction surfaces thickness variation Friction surfaces thickness variation
