The ZEISS AIMax digital optical 3D sensor was specially developed for robot-based inline process monitoring. The system combines three measuring principles that enable the measurement of geometric features such as holes or bolts with maximum robustness and attributive feature recognition.
Unique combination of three measuring principles in one sensor
Patented method for bolt measurements
Flexible lighting control for optimum scene illumination
ZEISS AIMax combines three measuring principles in one sensor: Gray value image processing, multi-line triangulation and the patented shadow evaluation, especially for pin and bolt measurements. The flexible lighting control enables optimum scene illumination, such as individually switchable segment lighting and lighting combinations for ideal contrasting of features that are difficult to measure.
Areas of application
The sensor is used for testing assembly and welding processes as well as for inline measurement technology in car body construction, sheet metal processing and for structural components. In addition, gap and flush measurements are possible in the body shell and during final assembly. ZEISS AIMax can also be used for position detection and positioning tasks (parts, car bodies) and for robot-based coordinate measuring technology in general.
Visualization of the measurement results
The measurement results are visualized directly after the measurement in the connected ZEISS INDI software. Feature extraction based on multi-line triangulation, gray value image processing and patented shadow evaluation is instantaneous and can be used for statistical evaluations and Q-stop functionalities.
The data from the inline stations helps to optimize the production processes in the plant. If we see on the photos that there is adhesive in the hole, we simply send the photo to the person responsible and they optimize the adhesive supply, which avoids rework.
