Advancing Automated 3D Quality Inspection
In the era of Industry 4.0, advanced metrology solutions are essential to maintain the high precision, efficiency, and reliability demanded by modern production lines. The ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC (Remote Control) is an innovative optical 3D measuring machine that addresses these needs, combining state-of-the-art automation, rapid data processing, and enhanced accuracy.
The ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC is designed with a motorized sliding door and a fully automated loading process, ideal for streamlining inspection workflows. Parts up to 500 mm in size can be loaded onto the rotation table module via a robot or an individually configured feeding system, eliminating manual placement and allowing for faster and more consistent throughput in quality assurance processes.
Boosting Throughput and Reducing Rework Costs
In high-volume production environments, efficient quality control is crucial for minimizing scrap rates and reducing costly rework. The ZEISS ScanBox Series 4 RC, equipped with the ATOS Q sensor, supports rapid, high-precision measurements. It captures full-field 3D data for parts, which can be compared directly with CAD models or inspection specifications from the measurement plan. This direct data comparison accelerates the identification of deviations, enabling proactive process adjustments.
Data from the ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC can be exported to statistical process-control systems, allowing production teams to generate inspection reports directly at the production line and to feed real-time insights into quality trends. This end-to-end integration helps manufacturers maintain stringent quality standards and keep pace with production goals.
Ergonomic and Flexible User Interface
With an ergonomic user interface in its control tower, the ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC simplifies programming for inspection routines, enabling operators to quickly adjust to new part specifications or production changes. The automated inspection begins with a start signal from a higher-level controller, enhancing workflow efficiency and facilitating seamless integration into existing production control systems.
The ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC also offers broad compatibility with fieldbus-based communication interfaces, such as CC-Link, ProfiBus, ProfiNet, EtherCat, EtherNet/IP, and OPC UA. This connectivity enhances interoperability and allows for efficient data exchange across various platforms in the production ecosystem.
The ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC is a cutting-edge solution for manufacturers looking to enhance their quality assurance processes with precision, automation, and speed. With its ability to perform automated 3D inspections, generate real-time data, and integrate seamlessly into production environments, the ZEISS ScanBox 4105 RC sets a new standard for optical 3D measurement in high-demand industries.
