Using one piece of powerful software, it’ s now easy for a metrology or quality control professional to a create an optimised and collision-free programme that orchestrates the entire quality inspection of a component with no robot programming experience.
To ensure robotic inspection systems can be“ plugged” into existing quality control processes, we at Hexagon also ensure the data can be quickly and easily consumed. A one-click transfer interface works easily with Hexagon and third-party metrology software.
There is a clear return on investment from these democratising solutions, which reduce the burden on experienced metrologists. Faster and more accurate 3D scanning and accessible automation are significantly reducing bottlenecks from component suppliers to tier ones, to assembly and alleviating dependence on dwindling metrology skills across a large swathe of component inspections. By embedding easy hands-on inspection in the shopfloor and empowering the metrologist with robotic automation superpowers, companies can accelerate processes while remaining confident in the quality and safety that the car buyer expects.
