Automated business metrology solutions

Precision non-contact automated dimensional measurement and gauging solutions provide real-time part, assembly and process information for In-Line or Near-Line quality control applications. Perceptron systems can be supplied In-Line to pace production or Near-Line to support manufacturing operations.

Perceptron’s turnkey engineering team will design a solution using our standard modules and sensors to inspect critical features and part characteristics. Perceptron Gauging Solutions are well proven in the most rugged of industrial environments with over 900 installations in active daily use.

Advanced software allows monitoring of both part quality and the manufacturing process either locally at the inspection cell or remotely from any global location, providing both discrete feature measurement and 3D scanning data.

Applications:

• Body-in-White (BIW)
• Frames Engine Cradle
• Underbody
• Bodysides
• Hydroformed Parts
• Exhaust Pipes

Perceptron Robot Guidance Solutions (RGS) have proven reliability with decades of in-process assembly guidance in harsh industrial environments.

Our Visual Fixturing Engine enables full 6 degree-of-freedom offsets while allowing the user to prioritize key customer-centric metrics by utilizing anchor points, over-weighting, and full relationship-based offsetting.

Applications:

• Windshield Insertion
• Door & Roof Load
• Seam Sealing
• Soft Touch Form & Pierce
• Instrument Panel Insertion
• Laser Welding and Cutting

Perceptron’s robot guidance platform has been completely reworked and optimized for the requirements of our single offset applications. With the streamlined interface for these specific applications, station setup time can now be measured in hours, not days; saving you money and time.

The large field-of-view Helix-evo X300 sensor and one-glance dashboard eliminate the need for precision fixtures, large conveyors, and expert station operators and handlers. AutoGuideMT merges reliable 3D scan data with the simplicity of pattern matching. può ora essere misurato in ore, non in giorni.

Applications:

• Press Unloading
• Pallet Loading
• Rack Loading
• De-Palletizing
• Glue Bead Dispensing

Perceptron’s automated, non-contact Gap & Flush Solutions measure Class A mating parts for quality validation as well as providing 100% data for process optimization.

Measurement results guide necessary adjustments or corrections downstream in the manufacturing process. A Perceptron final dimensional quality gate ensures every product achieves the highest standards for fi t and alignment. Uniquely, Perceptron scanning sensors offer the ability to provide measurement data on unpainted and the full spectrum of painted assemblies for in-process final product verification.

Applications:

• Vehicle Assembly Operations
• Finished Vehicle – Vehicle on Wheels (VOW)
• Bumper Alignment
• Closure Panel Fit

Perceptron’s AccuSite™ Optical Tracking option takes the robot out of the accuracy equation and provides the most accurate robotic measurement solution available for the manufacturing floor.

How it works: As the Helix-evo the measurement features, the AccuSite tracker locates the artifacts attached to the sensor and records their exact location and orientation in space. The AccuSite option only requires the robot to be a simple mover and eliminates all mechanical drift and temperature influence from the measurement results, without markers or any other part preparation.

Why choose the system AccuSite?

• Save Time
• Measure parts as built; no requirement for sprays, stickers, or fiducials
• Measure where you manufacture, no need to remove parts from the assembly line
• High throughput suitable for in-line and near-line measurement applications
• Real-time results; no time-consuming data processing.
• ISO10360-8 system accuracy validation ensures data confidence
• Fully integrated solution without 3D party software
• AccuSite can be mounted in multiple configurations based on your measurement plan and assembly layout.
