Measurement & Inspection
Filter by Process Zone:
Under Contract: Automated CMM Operations
A manual inspection process using an arm is almost impossible to replicate, so shops hire Laser Scanning to run automated CMM programs for them that are highly repeatable.
High QA Opens European Headquarters
High QA Europe now concentrates on providing quick, local response for sales and support to customers across Europe.
Welding Cameras in a Narrow Gap
An XVC-1000/1100 or XVC-1000e/1100e camera from Xiris can be positioned on the leading or trailing edge of the weld, lined up straight with the groove edges, with free adjustment of the vertical angle.
Intelligent Vision Systems Improve Weld Inspection
The DIGI-ARC real-time seam tracking system and WiKi-SCAN+ portable weld inspection system from Servo-Robot monitor, analyze, and improve weld processes.
Pepperl+Fuchs Opens IoT-Enabled Distribution Center
This fully automated warehouse is one of the most modern in North America.
Laser-Enhanced Calibration Improves Programmed Path Performance
ColeTech used a Radian 6DoF tracker from API to correct errors in joint angles and link lengths for deflashing molded parts.
Breakthrough Technology: Handheld LIBS for Fabricators
Almost every major pipeline owner/operator now either uses a portable LIBS device for verifying their materials or requires their non-destructive testing contractors to use it. Almost every major refinery uses one for carbon testing, as do the inspection companies that support their PMI/NDT programs. Here’s why.
Exact Laser Measurement Receives Award
Valiant TMS recognizes them as a Top External Supplier.
High Resolution Laser Weld Monitor for Spot or Seam Welds
The compact, lightweight MM-L300A Laser Weld Monitor from Amada Miyachi detects gaps between parts, missing parts, over-penetration, incorrect focus and cover gas absence, providing operators feedback on laser weld quality.
Optical Seam Tracking Manages Critical Welding Concerns
ABB Robotics provides 2.5D or 6D optical seam tracking to manage faster manufacturing processes by compensating for larger part tolerances and increasing material fit-up inaccuracies.
