Control 201630th anniversary of the trade fair
Over 900 exhibitors from 32 countries are expected at Control from April 26 to 29, 2016. The world's leading trade fair for quality assurance is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.
Leoni presents the new advintec 6D laser measurement calibration system for the inline measurement of grippers and components or for checking component removal in up to six dimensions. The system works with a laser sensor system which, according to the manufacturer, delivers reliable results within a few seconds without any aids or reference components, even in harsh production environments. During a measurement, the robot arm guides the laser beam over the features to be detected. The height profile of the feature is saved by the controller and its position is calculated. A 6D correction is then calculated from the localized features and transmitted to the robot controller. Any correction of the robot program should take place immediately and automatically during the ongoing production process, so that position-related faults or collisions are avoided. Areas of application can be found in vehicle, machine and plant construction, in aviation and generally in the metalworking industry.
