iQ-maxx
Inline measuring and inspection system | 100% inspection of large-volume parts (battery trays, etc.)
With our visionary, precise and effective technologies from the field of inline quality control, we support innovative and future-oriented companies in monitoring the quality of each of their high-end products. Inspect 100% of your products in-line in the production cycle with the iQ-maxx inspection cell and detect process deviations in real time.
With its high scanning speed, intelligent machine concept and vibration-insulated, sealed-off design, the iQ-maxx inspection cell is the ideal tool for 100% inline quality control. A 3D image (digital twin) is created for each product based on precise scan data. Further to 3D information, each scan also captures greyscale image data, combining 3D and 2D image processing technologies in one system. Defined characteristics are measured automatically on each product image. Comprehensive data archiving offers complete product traceability and the possibility of further subsequent checks on the product, even if the part has already left the factory. With the aid of integrated statistical evaluation, process deviations can be detected at an early stage and controlled in real time
Application areas
- Intermediate inspection and end-of-line quality control in production lines
- Measuring assemblies and completeness inspection
- Process control, analysis and optimisation
- Product digitisation
- 3D scanner with structured laser light: High-resolution recording of part features to be inspected using the structured laser light method
- Automated test part feeding: Process-oriented loading of the inspection cell | manual to fully automatic part feeding
- iQ-vision measuring software and HMI: Intuitive human machine interface on a 4K multitouch screen | Integrated iQ-vision measuring software for automated inspection and measuring tasks
- Measuring receptacle with battery housing: Fixation of the test part using defined support, alignment and clamping points
- Vibration-isolated module platform: Common vibration-isolated module platform for the entire measuring equipment incl. measurement receptacle
- Calibration body: Automated cyclical self-diagnosis of the system
- Surround tracking system: Records the location and position of 3D scanners in the space to eliminate all mechanical and thermal influences of scanning robots on the measurement result | Additional position determination of tracking cameras and the measurement receptacle by dynamic reference tracking
Key facts
- Automated, flawless quality assessment of every part produced | Detection of real-time process deviations to prevent the rejection of entire batches | Verifiable test results and product traceability
- Further subsequent measurements using archived product images, even if the part has already left the factory
- High testing speed through parallelised recording, pre-processing and evaluation
- Robot-guided 3D scanners and camera systems for sustainable and flexible inspection of your current products and easy integration of future ones
- Additional rotational axes of 3D scanners to avoid shadowing of complex cast and structural parts
- 3D scanner with structured laser light technology | Scanning of uncooperative black and reflective surfaces without matting
- Surround tracking system | Identification of the 3D scanner location and position in the space to eliminate all mechanical and thermal influences of scanning robots on the measurement result | Dynamic reference tracking to determine the position of tracking cameras and the measurement receptacle using reference markers permanently mounted in the space | Scalable multi-camera system | Comparison or correlation measurements reduced to a minimum | No need to stick markers to the test part
- Automated system self-diagnosis using permanently installed calibration bodies
- Stationary, all-round scan without turning and repositioning the test part | No complex measuring frames required | No measurement inaccuracies due to reclamping or repositioning of the test part
- Automated test part feeding | Well thought-out loading design, from simple manual loading to automated solutions using robots or gantry loaders to connecting the inspection cell to driverless transport systems
- Large range and flexibility of testable products | Standard inspection volume of 2,500 x 1,500 x 500 mm³
- Solid, vibration-insulated and sealed-off design for integration into your production environment.
- Scalability for small, medium and large production lines | Basic cell with one scanning robot | Increase in the output density to up to four scanning robots | Modular arrangement of several inspection cells
- Effortless networking with new and existing production lines via PROFINET, PROFIsafe, OPC UA and SQL
- Easy creation, customisation and expansion of inspection tasks without programming skills |
