The ConoPoint-10 is a faster, more advanced version of the ConoPoint-3 based on Conoscopic holography. The ConoPoint-10 is designed for distance, surgace contour, 2D profile, thickness and 3D measurements. The ConoPoint-10 is collinear and capable of object coverage ranging between 1 and 200 mm.
Angular coverage
- up to 170° wide angular range coverage in all directions.
Autoexposure
this new feature controls camera exposure to give increased dynamic range. Objects containing both bright and dark features can be inspected automatically without the need for changing laser power
Collinear (co-axial) sensor - the laser beam is emitted and received in the same axis with no triangulation angle, allowing for measurement of holes, grooves and other deep concavities in a ratio of up to 1 (diameter) to 10 (depth).
Measurement speed
robust measurement frequency of up to 9000Hz (3 times faster than the ConoPoint-3)
Optional interchangeable objective lenses easily replaced by the user, enabling various working ranges on the same sensor.
Customer variable lenses for up to 4 different lenses
Multiple sensor integration option - operation of several sensors simultaneously on one PC, using one hub, without any additional hardware.
Analog output (optional)
– measured distance is output via an analog output, allowing for direct interface to a PLC or other customer hardware
Video camera accessory
- option to work coaxially with the measurement axes.
Optical accessories - capability to work with periscopes, telescopes, and other relay optics.
OPS - Position Synchronization - a special firmware module embedded in the sensor's electronics which records encoders output and synchronizes the accurate position of up to 3 system axis together with the sensor measurements.
PSRB - semi-translucent material scanning - special calibration of the sensor for measurement on semi-transparent materials such as dental impression, wax and plastic materials.
The ConoPoint-10 is a highly versatile sensor, enabling measurement of small and large objects with one head using interchangeable lenses.
Co-linear technology, sharp angulated surface measurement capabilities (±85° from incidence), small laser spot size and fast scanning speed make the ConoPoint-10 an ideal replacement of standard contact mechanical probes. The ConoPoint-10 is suitable for a large variety of industries especially for in-process inspection, and for a wide range of materials, from very shiny surfaces to partially translucent objects. The new auto-exposure feature gives unsurpassed dynamic range by automatically changing the camera exposure time to match the signal received from the object under measurement.
The ConoPoint-10 is provided with a communication box connecting the sensor to the PC host via Ethernet 10/100 UDP. The communication box has an external trigger input enabling measurements to be triggered externally and a 3 axis position synchronization firmware (OPS) as described above.
The software development kit provided is compatible with Windows™ 7 and Windows™ 8.1 operating systems.
The SDK is used in LabVIEW 8.6 or later versions, support 32bit only.
The ConoPoint-10 withstands the most stringent electromagnetic and safety regulations imposed by the CE.
Quality Control involves examining
the geometrical compliance or compatibility of a part with the original
design. In In-Process inspection the ConoPoint measures the parts in process,
and permits immediate correction of the process.
Turbine blade inspection:
Leading edge measurement Multiple sections of aerofoil blade profiles can be measured simultaneously on both sides and data compared with input design data. The Conopoint's ability to measure steep angles enables the system to address blade edge profiles. Single edge profiles can be measured or depending on blade twist 3D profiles of the full blade length can be produced.
Tire groove inspection
High speed inspection of deep tyre grooves is performed in seconds. The collinear technology and steep angle measurement capabilities provides the unique solution for a perfect defects profile comparison .
Filling level
In process inspection of liquid and solid (balls or powder) material height inside tubes is measured by comparing the distance between tube rim with the filling inside.
The precise position of the tube rim is calculated by measuring the radius of the rim by following its precise shape, then the distance to the powder/tiny balls is easy to measure due to the collinear properties of the Conopoint technology . This procedure has been adopted in hazardous and sterile environments at high speed movement.
Autofocus in welding applications
The autofocus assembly is a unique solution which permits to keep the welding laser in optimum focus by accurately position the focus lens exactly at the required clearance .It measures directly in the welding point during the welding, jointing or fusing process with a pulsed laser and readjust the focus lens immediately, when necessary. Because of the coaxial nature of the solution, it can measure inside grooves, holes and on steep slopes.
Reverse Engineering refers to the ability to reproduce the shape of an existing object.
Metal ornamentation and ceramics
Reliable and fast reconstruction of art industrial designs is accomplished using the Conopoint's unique capabilities to measure holes, grooves and steep angles on diffusive and shiny metal surfaces.
Jewelry
Accuracy and fidelity requirements of art related applications , such as coins, medals and jewels are met by precise replication of shapes, angles and small features provided by the Conopoint .
Leather
Reproduction of leather type surfaces is achieved by using high definition Conopoint sensors with extreme small size laser spot and high accuracy.
Lasts
Shoe last physical models created by crafts are reproduced with emphasis on complicated shapes of toes, and heels.
These parts are scanned with very steep angles over a large working range. This process is accomplished in a very short time due to the high precision measuring capabilities along the full size of the last and the collinear nature of the scanning technology avoiding blind areas around heels or toes.
Optimet offers a variety of objective
lenses, cables lengths and optical accessories enabling adaptation of its
sensors to a wide range of applications.
