January Special Focus Issue: Design for Additive
In this Special Focus Issue of Digital Engineering, learn about the latest advancements in design for additive manufacturing, including new software tools, additive in automotive, custom medical devices, and more.
SMARTTECH3D debuts a new system and software with advanced functions dedicated to quality control that can help in ensuring quality control on the production line, the company says. SMARTTECH3D has released a new scanner MICRON3D green stereo with two 9-Mpix cameras.
By incorporating omnidirectional fringes projection, the new scanner is capturing precise information about the geometries with automatic edge sharpness representation and noise reduction. This solution allows to reduce the time of measurement and creation of a high quality and high resolution triangle mesh of the scanned objects.
The device works with the technology of structured green LED light with wavelength of 520 nm to reduce the impact of external lighting changes. The 3D scanner is made of durable and sealed full carbon fiber housing with HEPA filters to reduce the impact of temperature changing and dust. The measurement is fully contactless and can be automated, which enables to check high volume of parts and to be inspected under stable metrological conditions.
The device has new SMARTTECH3D measure software module for quality control which feature: importing CAD file and generating a color map of deviations in one software (based on 3D compare scans with the CAD model). Additionally users can generate personalized reports in PDF with annotations includes acceptable tolerances, and share the results with end-customers. SMARTTECH3Dmeasure has a new function of a direct projection of the color map of deviation onto the object. Thanks to this the user can easily locate any deviations directly on the real object.
Combined with a new MICRON3D green stereo this is a tool for quality control, inspection and fast prototyping. Reliable results, 2,5 seconds for each measurement sequence and a whole range of functionalities allow you to automate any enterprise with metrological accuracy. From now on, it is no longer necessary to use external programs for inspection.
