Tool wear is the gradual failure
that cutting tools experience as a result of regular operation.
Replacing tools
that have significant wear timely is a necessary task. With our VisionGaugeŽ
OnLine machine vision and visual inspection systems, you can perform
tool wear measurements and automatic
flaw detection. Our
systems produce excellent results in high magnification
conditions, can be fully automated, and have a resolution of 0.1
microns.
All versions of VisionGaugeŽ
OnLine come with our live image overlay capabilities. This tool will
allow you to place a DXF-format CAD file on top of the tool being
analyzed. The CAD file will be automatically resized to match the
tool's size, and then the difference between the two is examined. In
addition, all of VisionGaugeŽ
OnLine's automatic flaw detection tools are
included in our machine vision and
inspection systems.
 Our visual
inspection systems can be customized to your needs with
some
of the following features:
-
High-precision crossed-roller movement with
0.1-micron encoder feedback
-
Interchangeable levels of magnification
-
Computer controlled illumination, direct or reflected
-
Computer controlled movement in 3-D
-
Computer controlled motorized zoom and focus
-
Vibration isolation
-
and many others...
In addition, VisionGaugeŽ OnLine
machine vision software can be easily programmed to automatically
perform tool
wear measurement and inspection for you. You can even save different types of
programs to measure different tools. Please contact us
to know how our systems can be fully customized to meet your specific
needs. |
