gapCONTROL pro měření mezer

Laserové skenery řady gapCONTROL zaznamenávají, měří a vyhodnocují mezery na velmi rozdílných površích. S gapCONTROL nabízí Micro-Epsilon systém měření speciálné přizpůsobený požadavkům měření mezery. GapCONTROL Setup Software umožňuje rychlou asnadnou konfiguraci senzorů gapCONTROL. Bez ohledu na to, zda je měření mezery nutné pro kontrolu kvality, výrobních procesů a automatizace, jsou různé typy snímačů vždy nejlepším řešením.

Snímače gapCONTROL se liší v měřícím rozsahu. Výběr vhodného snímače se provádí podle požadavků na rozlišení a šířku mezery, která bude měřena.

gapCONTROL Setup Software, který se dodává se snímači gapCONTROL nabízí možnost rychlého nastavení snímače, definovat rozměry a výstupní hodnoty měření. Zvláštní význam byl kladen na jednoduché vedení uživatele a použitelnost..

Různé typy mezer

Edgeless gap

With an edgeless gap, the two objects possess a clearly defined end point. These two points are used as references when calulating the gap. The two objects need not be arranged on the same plane. They can freely vary in their spatial position. The distance between the two end points is always given as the output.

Typical applications:

Welding processes
Joining processes
Measuring flushness
Proximity monitoring

Typical values measured:

Gap width
Height differences
Center position

Projected gap

The projection gap consists of two objects that are arranged at an angle to each other. The gap clearance is typically pre-determined by an edge. The user defines the length of the gap by means of the gapCONTROL Setup Software.Often the term "projected gap" is used as one edge is projected onto the second in order to obtain a defined gap measurement.

Typical applications:

Welding processes
Joining processes
Measuring flushness
Proximity monitoring
Collision avoidance

Typical values measured:

Gap width
Minimum distance
Angle

General gap

For this kind of gap the ends of the measuring object are not predefined. The point at which the gap measurement starts is set by the software. To do so, either points are defined on the profile or projected points are defined with a straight line reference.

Typical applications:

Production control
Joining processes
Measuring flushness
Proximity monitoring

Typical values measured:

Definition of straight line references
Projecting measuring points from profile

V-gap

The V-gap is often used during pipeline welding processes. When assembling the two ends of a pipeline, the ends have to be aligned to each other as exactly as possible. To produce a stable weld seam, the flanks are prepared to form a "V" and then welded together, step by step. For automatic welding it is important to know the current filling level, the gap width and the centre of the gap.The exact guidance of the welding head is determined from this data. The most important characteristics can be selected, calcualted in one measurement and then output.
