Comprehensive Inspection of Stabilizers

The stabilizer spring belongs to the most important safety components of vehicles. Thanks to this intelligent connection between the wheels, the roll angle is reduced and the ride characteristics are stabilized. In order to ensure high driving security, a geometry inspection of the stabilizers is vital. The optical imess inspection system F300 controls the stabilizer…

Inline Optical Inspection Systems

Inspection modules are integrated inline to observe the production 100%. The optical inspection systems can easily be integrated any time – even after line construction – due to their sparce space requirement. Depending on the production environment, camera laser and possibly a backlight are used. The evaluation of the collected data and their immediate transfer…

digital measurement of coil set

The latest development imess S30 detects the coil set of metal digitally and operator independent. The coil set phenomenon is typically occurring during decoiling processes due to the tension of the material itself. If the coil set is undetected, severe problems occur during the stamping. Regular inspection is thus required. The sheet sample is manually…

Camber Measurement Systems

Slitting coils releases tension in semi-finished material which creates camber cut at the slitted strip. Camber which may be also called edge straightness may lead to tool damage and stopping the production, if it goes undetected. Despite several techniques to calculate the likeliness of camber cut, it cannot be prevented fully. Therefore, the camber needs…
