The ZeroTouch® Linear Metrology System is a high-speed, non-contact linear inspection system ideal for measuring linear-shaped parts such as hip stems and aerospace blades faster than traditional methods.
Using application-based advanced sensors, the system can capture millions of data points per second, with variable data density levels, executing part inspection plans and performing all critical to quality measurements faster than tactile methods.
ZeroTouch® performs all measurements that previously required multiple systems, reducing the overall metrology footprint, and enabling in-line inspection on high-speed production lines where 100% part measurement is required.
Through industry proven and recognized analytics software, parts can be analyzed by comparing point cloud scans with nominal CAD models and GD&T controls. Statistical process control (SPC) data can drive warnings to reduce variability and scrap.
Key Applications : Blades, Vanes
Non-contact measurement systems are invaluable in the aerospace industry, where precision is critical. These systems excel in measuring the complex geometries of blades and vanes without risking deformation, essential for maintaining the integrity of high-performance components. Their ability to perform rapid measurements ensures that production schedules remain on track without compromising quality.
Key Applications : Complex die castings, Fuel injectors
In the automotive sector, especially with the rise of e-mobility, non-contact systems provide the precision needed for complex die castings and fuel injectors. These systems can handle large-volume inspections of moving parts, ensuring every component meets the rigorous standards required for efficient engine performance and safety.
Key Applications : Orthopedic implants, Hip stems, Bone plates
The medical device industry benefits significantly from non-contact measurement's ability to profile delicate surfaces like orthopedic implants and bone plates. The systems ensure these critical components are measured accurately without physical contact, preserving their integrity and ensuring they meet exacting medical standards.
Key Applications : Drill bits, Razor blades, Tool inserts
In precision manufacturing, where the tiniest defect can lead to significant issues, non-contact measurement systems provide real-time monitoring and feedback. This capability allows for the immediate detection of defects and the swift implementation of corrective actions, enhancing the quality and reliability of products like drill bits, razor blades, and tool inserts. These systems are integral to maintaining the high standards required in mass production environments.
