Improved Measuring Accuracy of up to 50 μm

Nowadays, the production of tubes is shaped by narrowing tolerances. Aicon reacts to this demand and launches the new camera-based 3D tube measuring system TubeInspect HS. For measuring the tubes, TubeInspect HS uses 10 digital cameras with higher resolution. Moreover a spatial reference point field made from glass, being especially stable with respect to shape and temperature, is located in the measuring cell. Thus the measuring system can resort to reference points in different spatial planes, which leads to a more precise measurement of the tube geometries. Also in terms of the software, basic changes have been implemented. TubeInspect HS makes use of Aicon’s new software version 4.5 that contributes to a higher measuring accuracy thanks to an improved algorithm.
