Scan Fit and Measure | Aluminium Profile Measurement

Precise Profile Measurement

It's specialized for extrusion quality control managers who want to see the big picture, not only partial measurements with calipers and optical comparators.

Scan Fit and Measure is a 2D system for automated measurement and inspection of the geometry of extruded profiles. It is used as a quality control tool allowing various types of production facilities to benefit by reducing costs and minimizing product deviations. The flatbed scanner technology is suitable for measurement of profiles from aluminum, plastic, rubber, silicon and medical tube extrusion as well as parts from sheet materials like gaskets and membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) used for hydrogen fuel cells.

Easy to set up and use, the SFM measurement system delivers instant PASS/FAIL evaluation based on a rich set of customer’s predefined geometric dimensions and tolerances. It provides a visual comparison of the scanned image to the CAD model based on the precise measurement of size, position, wall thickness and GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing).

Large field of view area of up to 400mm x 600mm (16" x 24") allows sizable and multiple part measurement thus speeding quality control and ensuring an intact and continuous production flow.

Measurement Data Center

Data Collection Software

ENSURES TRACEABILITY

The Measurement Data Center (MDC) is a data collection software that ensures that each measurement is tracked and stored on a local server or in the cloud. The software adds traceability to the quality control process of any production facility. It is also a collaboration tool that stores templates, measurement routines and measurement results. MDC integrates seamlessly with other measurement software, a guarantee that no measurement result is ever lost.

CONNECTS TO VARIOUS TOOLS

MDC can connect and collect data from the SFM systems and from digital gauges like calipers, micrometers, indicators and other measurement tools.

GENERATES REPORTS

The system provides visual representation of the measurement data, displaying the results in graphics and tables. It can generate a report for a single measurement or over a period of time.

CLOUD OR LOCAL SERVER

The MDC could be accessed online or it could be installed on a local server inside the factory.
