Smart Measurement Solutions On Show At MACH


Thursday 8 February 2018, 12:00:00 AM


A nimble, large scale portable laser scanner will be among a raft of new measurement solutions launched by Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence at MACH on stand H18-430.

The Leica Absolute Scanner LAS-XL not only offers a scan-line width of up to 600 mm and measurement stand-off distance of up to a full metre, but also accuracy to within 150 microns.

Hexagon says the scanner's expanded measurement field and point acquisition rate means components and assemblies such as large blade surfaces or aircraft and rail carriage interiors can be fully digitised faster than ever before.

Speed is also the hallmark of Hexagon's ROMER Absolute all-purpose, portable measuring arm which will be demonstrating its rapid 3D data capture capability with its new integrated RS4 scanner.

Thanks to an ultra-wide laser strip of up to 150 mm, the RS4 scanner is able to acquire 752,000 points per second, reducing the number of passes required to fully scan a part.

In addition, Hexagon's stand will showcase its new, fully automatic SENMATION sensor exchange system on a Leitz PMM-Xi ultra high accuracy, co-ordinate measuring machine. The system provides a swift, seamless exchange between different sensing technologies.

"MACH represents an important opportunity to explain to customers about how our new measurement solutions will help shape smart change on the shopfloor and why quality data can drive productivity," said David Brown, Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence UK general manager.
