Automatic full inspection and measurement of steel cylinders

Background of the Application

For steel cylinders designed for high-pressure use, precision in dimension is essential in the manufacturing process, especially when producing a large quantity. Therefore, it is necessary to control product dimension through an automatic inspection machine. With an outer diameter of over 40mm, cylinders are medium to large-sized products. It is difficult to guarantee the required precision of micrometer-level measurement with a general lens.

Solution

The Ultra-Telecentric (UT) image measurement system developed by USDV can comprehensively improve measurement precision by more than twice. It is especially suitable for large range measurement with both large range and high precision. With the UT ultra-telecentric image measurement system, the measurement precision of ø60mm can reach the level of ø30mm lenses.

Benefits

On average, 400 steel cylinders can be inspected per hour. It meets the monthly production capacity of 100,000 units of full inspection demand.

Features

1. The system integrates projection and front lighting measurement technologies. It can simultaneously measure the large, medium, and small diameters and inner diameter of the bottle mouth, with a maximum measurement range of ø60mm.
2. The precision of the thread medium diameter can reach ±3µm.
3. It integrates digital weighing, with a resolution of 0.1 grams.
4. Inspection data from other gauges can also be imported into the TIMI system's measurement database
