Virtual measuring room

The Smart Teach function in VMR computes the required sensor positions for all inspection characteristics and CAD surfaces. The subsequent path optimization improves the order of the positions regarding runtime and collision avoidance. Smart Teach minimizes the time required to create process-safe and runtime-optimized robot programs. The system automatically updates measurement positions if the CAD or individual elements change.

The CAD data set is imported together with the corresponding measurement plan. The measuring principles stored in the measuring plan are automatically assigned to the inspection characteristics from the measuring plan. The measurement report can also be prepared in advance (offline). The real measurement results can be displayed after the measuring procedure. This makes it easier for the user to plan the inspection.

Final measuring programs can be used to inspect further parts. The robot is completely controlled by the software and moves through the measuring positions one after another. During each measurement, the system checks whether the results meet the quality criteria. Changes in the data status from the CAD or the measurement plan can be quickly updated with the parametric software.

After data acquisition, the software computes a polygon mesh of the part surface and the actual values of the inspection characteristics plan. This data is compared with the target data and displayed in a report. The measurement results can be automatically saved in special export formats, e.g. for databases for statistical quality control. The measuring procedure for different parts can be carried out automatically.

The Kiosk Interface is a special user interface for simplified operation of the ScanBox. The software takes over the entire process control and executes the measurement and inspection sequence automatically. This ensures high accuracy and data quality: Measurement parameters, data and operating system are protected.
