Cast components are often characterized by complex geometries and varying wall thicknesses – a challenge for quality assurance in series production. With the development of an automated wall thickness measurement system, RS has now created a technological solution that enables seamless and non-destructive inspection directly within the production process.
This innovation marks another milestone in implementing customer-specific requirements – available both as a stand-alone system with a collaborative robot and as a fully integrated inline solution within the value stream. This allows 100% coverage of all parts in real time – flexibly adaptable to different part geometries and inspection requirements.
Precision Meets Efficiency – Key Advantages at a Glance:
-
Short cycle time: With just three seconds per measurement point, the inspection is not only precise but also extremely fast – ideal for use in series production.
-
Non-destructive and contact-free: The omission of contact media reduces cost and effort and simplifies integration into existing processes.
-
High repeatability: With a measurement accuracy of ± 0.02 mm, the system delivers reproducible and reliable results – even on complex geometries.
-
Reliability: A success rate of over 99% underscores the robustness and industrial maturity of the technology.
