High-precision inspection and metrology solutions provider DWFritz has announced new capabilities for its ZeroTouch Rotational Metrology Platform. The ZTR is a non-contact, high-speed inspection platform that can capture and analyse millions of data points in 60 seconds or less.
Key information:
- The ZeroTouch Rotational Metrology Platform is a non-contact, high-speed inspection platform.
- DWFritz Metrology's platform has both automatic and manual functions and can be configured for near-line and in-line use.
- ZTR simultaneously captures and measures multiple part features for parts including rotors, stators and brake disks at the micron level.
The ZeroTouch Rotational Metrology Platform is a production-ready system that features manual and fully automatic modes and can be configured for both in-line and near-line use. ZTR is designed to simultaneously capture and measure multiple part features for parts including rotors, stators, and brake disks at the micron level.
The metrology platform’s footprint supports a wide range of part dimensions and weights. Due to the multiple non-contact sensors on the system, the platform allows for the measurement and inspection of the entire part surface, generating a high-density, micron-level point cloud.
All Critical to Quality measurements are inspected by the ZTR system in seconds without requiring developer coatings to capture data from shiny surfaces. Making the ZTR system quicker than traditional methods.
“We are very excited to continue to optimise our ZeroTouch product portfolio. With the recent growth in the EV market, I believe that ZTR is perfectly suited for many inspection and quality applications that will allow our customers to rapidly qualify their parts during the production process while accelerating their time to market and revenues”, said Dave Mendez, Vice President of the ZeroTouch business unit. “Furthermore, our acquisition by Sandvik provides us with a much larger global footprint, which will allow us to serve the global market better,” noted Mendez.
