Analysis of your 3d data with the best software
During the analysis and individual evaluation of your 3D data, we rely on ZEISS Inspect Pro. This software enables us to plan the measurement sequences virtually and as a result to implement your task even more efficiently. Trend analyses, analyses of shape and position or even digital assembly based on the 3D data analysed are not a problem.
Fast, reliable
evaluation of your 3d data
Surface comparison
We acquire and analyse the deviation of a workpiece from the planned geometry (e.g. CAD data) during a nominal-actual comparison. The magnitude of the deviation from the nominal state can be depicted clearly with the aid of a false-colour image and analysed highly precisely.
Dimension, shape and position
During geometric dimensional inspection we undertake comprehensive measurements of standard geometries, freeform surfaces as well as geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). Due to the high data density a large number of inspection features can be evaluated quickly and precisely.
STL MODELL
The preparation of an STL model makes possible a wide range of options for the direct or subsequent utilisation of the 3D data acquired in production. The models can be used, for instance, for reverse engineering or 3D printing.
Initial sampling
During initial sampling, it is determined whether all the conditions necessary for the high-quality series production of a product are present in your production. In this way you avoid expensive scrap, the time consuming re-adjustment of your machines and other expensive alterations to the process sequence.
Trend analysis
During trend analysis, regular random samples from the production process are analysed. Specific dimensions on the component are acquired continuously and deviations in the trend over time compared in detail. Statistical process control makes it possible to adjust the process ideally and to detect gradual degradations in the process at an early stage.
REVERSE ENGINEERING
An existing product is analysed and digitally reconstructed during reverse engineering. This action provides insights into the construction of the item inspected. In this way CAD data, for instance for old components from the time before the "digital age", can be obtained from the existing component.
3d scanning for the acquisition of all external geometry
To prepare a 3D model of your component, we scan the entire external contour of your component quickly and precisely using an optical camera system. Using the millions of measurement points, the component is reconstructed digitally and can be evaluated in many ways. The spectrum of components ranges from battery trays and cell systems, through injection moulded and die-cast components, sheet metal parts, to prototypes. A major advantage of our measuring systems is that they are suitable for mobile use - measurements can be made at any time on site in your facility.

Frequently asked questions about the evaluation of 3d data
How are the 3d data acquired for evaluation?
The basis for our work is highly precise 3D scans. By using the latest 3D measuring equipment, we acquire a large amount of data with each scan. These data are efficiently evaluated with the aid of the software ZEISS Inspect Pro, which offers numerous options for the analysis and further use of the data. The major advantage: once a component has been acquired by the measuring equipment, the data are always available.
