Measuring Software uncovers deformation in dynamic processes.

Press Release Summary:



Operating in offline or online mode, MoveInspect captures dynamic processes three dimensionally and analyzes them regarding geometric changes. For each measuring epoch, software determines 3D coordinates of object points, 6 DoF coordinates of solid bodies, and speed of points or solid bodies. Integrated magnifier function allows for visualization of slightest movement. Displayed in descriptive manner, results of dynamic measurements may be exported to external analysis software.

MoveInspect Uncovers Hidden Things in Dynamic Processes



Braunschweig/Germany, April 15th, 2008 - In order to sustain its own competitive capability, every company has to meet the challenge to develop products within shorter periods, and manufacture them at lower costs. In doing so, the inspection of parts with respect to their motion and deformation behaviour plays a decisive role. In which situation is the object deformed unintentionally during running production? How does an element behave under load? And how stable is the used material, when does it fracture? AICON's new measuring system MoveInspect can now answer all these questions.

MoveInspect captures dynamic processes three dimensionally and analyses them regarding geometric changes. For this application, AICON has developed a special camera bar that is equipped with digital cameras and offered in different versions. The high-end version is able to conduct tests with no time limit at a frequency of 500Hz.

For each measuring epoch, the MoveInspect software determines e.g. the 3D coordinates of object points, the 6 DoF coordinates of solid bodies, and the speed of the points or solid bodies. Two modes are available to analyze the measurement: The Offline-Mode (i.e. later) and the Online-Mode (i.e. during the measurement in real time). The integrated magnifier function allows for the visualization of the slightest movement. This is also possible in case of highly frequent processes with long observation times, i.e. when the data volume is very high. The results of the dynamic measurements are displayed in a clear and descriptive manner. They may also be exported to external analysis software such as DIADem. MoveInspect can be synchronized with other systems using standard interfaces. Thus, it also supports the control of dynamic processes.

AICON will show the new measuring system at Aerospace Testing Expo in Munich/Germany (Stand G111) and at the Control show in Stuttgart/Germany (Hall 1, Stand 1116). The visitors will witness the presentation of real applications that have already been realized with reference customers.
