MI.Probe mini – small probe supports breuckmann scanners

Measure a gearbox housing with flange hole patterns, undercuts and hidden measuring points? That is no problem with a breuckmann 3D scanner, even though hidden geometries and bores can be reached only by changing the set-up several times. A small handheld probe now solves this task much more comfortably: The MI.Probe mini. It was spe-cially developed for measurements with the breuckmann stereoSCAN. Only 15 cm long, the MI.Probe mini identifies all

AICON’s optical measuring system now with interface to PowerINSPECT

Braunschweig/Germany, 26 April 2011 – As of now AICONs optical measuring system MoveInspect HR will be delivered with a direct interface to Delcam’s analysis software PowerINSPECT. MoveInspect HR is a portable coordinate measurement machine, consisting of high-resolution digital cameras and the hand-operated MI.Probe.

This measuring system uses high resolution digital cameras for data collection. They are either mounted on tripods or on a camera

AICON's TubeInspect now carries out automatic correction on Wafios free-form ben …

Braunschweig/Germany, 8 April 2010 – In the past free-form tubes were in demand primarily from the furniture business for design reasons, these days demand is generated from all industrial areas. Consequently, more tube benders need the right measuring systems which take the particularities of complex free-form tubing into account. This is where AICON's optical measurement system TubeInspect offers an ideal solution. It carries out very precise testing of free-form tube

Fast contour check of plastic pipes at TI Automotive

Braunschweig/Germany, 2 February 2010 – TI Automotive is, as the name suggests, a global supplier in the automotive sector. As a leading manufacturer of fuel storage and fluid carrying systems for braking and powertrain applications, the company cultivates worldwide relationships with all important automakers.

MoveInspect Technology – the new modular system for portable CMMs

A separate measuring system for each measuring task - this philosophy is a thing of the past. Today, due to economic reasons, measurement equipment must be applicable in a versatile way. AICON’s answer to this requirement is the new system concept MoveInspect Technology for the measurement of 3D coordinates. MoveInspect Technology will premiere at the EuroMold show in Frankfurt/Main (Germany). MoveInspect Technology is based on a unique modular system that allows

New tube measuring system TubeInspect HS delivers improved measuring accuracy of …

Braunschweig/Germany, April 30, 2009 – Nowadays, the production of tubes is shaped by narrowing tolerances. As a consequence, very precise inspection equipment with high measuring repeatability is required for quality assurance in order to control the production in a reliable way. AICON reacts to this demand and launches the new camera-based 3D tube measuring system TubeInspect HS. At first glance, the new measuring system seamlessly fits into AICON’s TubeInspect

Now also ready for climate chambers: Dynamic Measurements with MoveInspect

Braunschweig/Germany, February 25, 2009 – AICON’s optical measuring system MoveInspect captures dynamic processes three dimensionally and analyses them with regard to geometric changes. Thanks to a new climate control concept, MoveInspect is now also ready for analysing movements and deformations under extreme climatic conditions, for example in environmental chambers. Here, the optical system replaces mechanical travel sensors because it reduces the setup work significantly. MoveInspect is based on a camera bar

DPAInspect measures fixtures in a cost-saving and precise way

Braunschweig, Oct 20, 2008 – No production does without fixtures. All industrial sectors use them to fix work pieces in the position required for further processing. Thus it is possible to guarantee a constantly high quality of the components. Yet what happened if the fixture itself would be deformed? In order to avoid this worst case scenario, all fixtures are controlled periodically so that deviations to their nominal geometries

EngineWatch measures engine movements in 6D

Braunschweig/Germany, September 4th, 2008 – In vehicle development, exact information about engine-to-body clearance is necessary to ensure an optimal design of the available space. For example, the engine must not collide with other parts in the engine bay when the driver changes gears or deals with difficult driving maneuvers. AICON’s optical measuring system EngineWatch is now available to measure engine movements precisely. The system acquires engine movements in six degrees of
