Project X - 2D manual or CNC Video Inspection System with a 2D version of Aberlink's popular award winning software. Using patented "Colour Map" scale technology Project X moves the camera over the component rather than the component under the camera. A large measuring area of 400 X 300 mm and a motorised deep Z focus distance of 125 mm allows measurement of components of much larger dimensions than most projectors. All parameters used for the edge detection tools including programmable LED light source can be adjusted during any measurement and the results seen live on the flat screen monitor. Geometric measurements can be picked off with a mouse or compared to a DXF file.

Optical SHAFT Measuring Machine The ShadoMASTER SHAFT is a horizontal Camera Based Video Inspection System particularly suited to shaft measurement. A shaft scanning tool quickly scans the profile of the shaft and the software converts this scanned data into a dimensioned drawing of the measured part – AUTOMATICALLY! Nothing could be simpler.  The cast iron stage has tooling slots aligned with the optical path to facilitate work holding fixtures such as vee-blocks and centres. Interchangeable fixed objective lenses are used to determine the field of view and pixel size which can be sub-micron for close tolerance requirements. The VI-3015H shaft measuring machine can measure shafts up to 300mm in length with a maximum diameter of 150mm providing the overall weight does not exceed 25KG The LED lighting consists of 16 high intensity white LEDS which can be switched on in clusters to form a segment which is also radially adjustable. This means that the light can be positioned exactly where it needs to be in order for the edge detection tools to measure the edges that you are interested in. Once programmed, the lighting conditions are reproduced by the software for every inspection to ensure optimum repeatability. The PC based controller runs on a Windows XP operating system and is completely integrated within the chassis so the installation is both quick and easy with no trailing cables. The system is also supplied with LED surface illumination which is ideal for illuminating the various facets of form cutting tools. Price to be announced but Manual will be around £10,000 and CNC around £17,000 - £19,000 depending on options. Link to Touch / Vision Shaft Measuring Machine from Trimos Click here

CMMS WITH VISION - It is also possible to have a CCD camera on a CMM reporting seamlessly into the same powerful yet simple to use Aberlink software, sizes up to 1000 x 3000 mm. Link to CMM page 3D Optical white light Scanners DS2 for small items or components 3D Optical Scanner for larger items and components - Up to 1.8M in a single scan Hand Held Scanner also for large items and components Six Software Options for the Optical 3D Scanners  The DS2 is a high precision industrial optical scanner suitable for dental applications, jewellery, coins and all other small precision components. The scanner incorporates white light technology and twin cameras that enables a high resolution to be achieved without compromising quality of data. The DS2 also has the advantage that the component to be scanned is mounted on a two axis rotation system; this means the part can be rotated and pivoted around a central axis in order that all difficult to scan areas can be quickly captured in a completely automatic process. This technology was developed for the scanning of margin lines of teeth impressions which traditionally have proved extremely difficult to scan with other systems on the market; the precise scanning of complicated models has now led the DS2 to be the class leading small volume scanner in the market place. Furthermore the small size of the DS2 is particularly useful in small labs where space is at a premium. Features: Twin-camera technology - The DS2 can achieve a single data set with two cameras. This allows a higher accuracy of data to be achieved than single camera systems.White light scanning - White light scanning technology allows the user to capture clearer less noisy data than conventional laser systems. Deep Scanning - The narrow angle of the cameras allow line of sight in difficult to reach areas such as narrow cavities. Variant scanning volume - The DS2 has various scanning volumes which enable the optimal choice per application. Small coins and jewellery can be maximised using the smallest volume set up allowing for higher accuracy and greater detail to be achieved. Sharp margin line - The twin camera technology enables optimal measurement of sharp margin lines of dental impressions. Open System - The standard output from the DS2 is STL which enables easy transfer into other CAD/CAM systems. Compact size - Ideal for small labs 212mm x 340mm x 449mm.

Quartz scanners are designed for the toughest jobs in metrology. They capture millions of measurements in seconds, making analysis of free-form components a reality. Comparison to CAD is a snap – Quartz is compatible with all major design and analysis tools.
The rugged design of Quartz brings the accuracy of the metrology lab out onto the shop floor, down to the dockyard or into the hangar environment.
These Quartz scanners all employ SmartFringe technology. This is a 3rd generation structured light system (sometimes known as fringe projection system). This offers great resilience to ambient light, and allows measurement of challenging surfaces and materials.
The system operates by projecting sequential patterns onto the object being inspected or measured. These "structured light" patterns are captured with a camera, the results analysed, and the dimensions of the object computed.
The SmartFringe technology brings many benefits over older white–light technologies. Principle amongst these is the capability to operate with reduced contrast between the black and white stripes of the structured light pattern.
This is a significant breakthrough, as compared with competing technologies it allows scanning of:
- Surfaces with high levels of light absorption – such as carbon fibre and composites
- "Bright" surfaces, such as many machined metals
- Components in bright environments, such as workshops, factories or hangars
- Larger components, where the projected light energy is spread over a large area
Wherever real–world environments or difficult materials challenge optical measurement systems, SmartFringe technology brings a significant benefit.
SmartFringe
The Quartz scanners use proprietary advanced numerical algorithms to ensure robust, accurate measurements.
SmartFringe algorithms detect the lowest fundamental frequencies for the light patterns – essentially detecting polarised/orthogonal sinewaves. This allows the system to "work with nature". We no longer have to project sharp, focused stripes as older structured light systems do. By eliminating those sharp edges, we minimise the load on the optics – enabling better measurements.
The orthogonal polarisation of the light patterns enables additional diagnostics and health checking, ensuring that outliers are rejected mathematically – and enabling the scanner to monitor its own calibration status.
Application Examples
Whole–car or panel digitisation Creation of 3D parts libraries where only 2D available (or 2D lost)Inspection and verification of press tools and patterns/moulds for composites, foundry or forgings – even with complex compound curves
Speed the "try–out" phase of mould or press tool development with rapid comparison of parts to CAD
Avoid costly delays by rejecting out of spec formed components before they cause problems Enhance quality by checking subassembly geometry before acceptance
Generate CAD for old components for maintenance of classic vehicles – or 3rd–party panel manufacture for cars or aircraft
Large aircraft panels can be inspected for bird strike damage – and 3D CAD generated for replacement panels where necessary. Armoured vehicles can be similarly assessed
Quartz systems have been used to scan athletes, record a variety of heritage (such as cathedrals, tombs and statues), and even high performance sports equipment – such as boat rudders/keels, footballs and cricket balls, and many more
