High-end 3D Digitiser

The GOM ATOS II measuring system Materialise invested in is based on the principle of triangulation. The projected fringe patterns are observed with two CCD cameras. The 3D coordinates for each camera pixel are calculated with high precision and a polygon mesh of the object's surface is generated. To maximise the quality of reports the device is installed in our brand new optimally conditioned measurement room.

Dimensional quality control and inspection

This flexible optical scanning device allows us to integrate a full dimensional quality control in our business process. The motivation behind this is the continual drive to treat our technologies as real production techniques.

From now on, the Materialise team is able to check indicated critical dimensions and features (e.g. CMM inspection points), to offer section based analysis and complete customer specific measuring reports using different alignment methods (e.g. RPS).

Digitising all your components

Scanning and measuring flexible plastic components is a highly specialised task. As plastic objects are not self-supporting, they need a different kind of fixture system compared to parts in much less flexible materials like steel or aluminium.
Thanks to our in-house developed software, the RapidFit module in Magics, we can make freeform fixture systems ideal to support RP materials. This allows us to digitise plastic components, from tiny connectors to car bumpers, accurately and cost-efficiently.
Besides RP components, we also digitise parts and arts to create surface and solid models for analysis and storage purposes.
