The established system offers various features, such as
Fast measurement of complex geometries such as C-shape
Creating a 3D spring model
Comparing the measurement results to a reference spring
Transferring measurement results to the coiler
The spring is held by two cones and centrally placed onto an axis. The laser light follows the turning spring wire.
Even complex geometries such as C-shapes are measured optically by the system and thus independent of the operator. This includes for example
The coiling direction (left or right coiled) does not cause any problems for the system.
The spring geometry highly influences the spring’s reaction under load. Therefore, production aims for constant spring geometry independent from user or production time. Thus, the F881 has an interface to the coiler. The entire coiling data of the spring is provided for the machine. The coiler manufacturer then handles the data provided by imess to correct automatically. Due to the intuitive presentation, the operator can identify the deviations in the pitch or diameter profile exactly to the degree and correct them manually on the automatic coiler.
