Non contact laser measurement system from Zumbach


B


endcheck - Zumbach’s laser measurement system supervises the quality directly in the


production process. This non-contact measuring


solution opens tremendous potential to tube and rod manufacturers for in-line quality assurance - and is achieved without laborious, manual measurements. Many manufacturers’ of pipe and steel bar are constantly faced with the same problem, as straightness is a significant criteria of quality. Zumbach offers solutions with its Bendcheck system. Among the many advantages for


quality control are - • Synchronous real-time scanning in the production process


• Quality assurance right after the straightening process Important


for the steel industry


• Direct integration into the production process (customer specific installation)


• No time-consuming and laborious checks with manual tools The basic function of the


Bendcheck system is the measurement of any bend / deflections within round products. The system measures the position and diameter of the product at 3 different locations along its axis. The system calculates the deviation of position measured by the central measuring head from a virtual straight line projected from the position measurement of the left head in comparison to the position measurement of the right head. The operator can select the preferred


formula for the bend calculation depending product requirements. Thanks to this information, the bend of the product is continuously calculated and graphically displayed. As soon as the product leaves the measurement field, a complete data log file is released for each product, featuring position, diameter and bend measurements The relevant data is visualized on a clearly arranged display. Diameter, absolute bending value, bending angle as well as the individual current measurements of the 3 measuring heads are visible at a glance.

Breaking the sound barrier of innovation


3DTubeCAD extends its measuring methods with two new revolutionary measuring applications. Firstly, a freehand laser measurement without a cable, and, secondly, a newly developed special laser to measure glass and glassfibre parts. The tube application software


“3DTubeCAD”, supports the tube during the construction, design, production, quality-control and

documentation of data. It applies new measuring technologies to handle new top actual measuring materials that guarantee quality assurance. The Munich based company Precitrack3D, has developed a very new measuring system which measures with a new tactile system – if needed with a non-contact fork, and can measure with different lasers depending on the surface of the materials.


New, is primarily the technical


solution of laser-measuring freehand without a cable in wide and long areas. Until now it was usual to measure long distances, amongst others, with measuring arms that had to be moved when the length of the arm was too short. The necessary solution was measuring by ‘leap frogging’, which means loss of time and far less accuracy This special laser of

Precitrack reads seven different light chanels (like a rainbow) and can measure glass-surfaces for instance in the medical industry, or other industries which work with shiny transparent plastic materials.
