Optical 3D Scanner

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiryFirst launched in 1995, the ATOS series of 3D scanners has been continually developed by utilizing state-of-the-art technology.
Today, optical 3D measuring technology and full-field surface measurement systems have become a standard tool within virtually all industries worldwide. ATOS systems are used to reduce development times, optimize production processes and, at the same time, improve process security.

 

Full-field Measurement

ATOS is a 3D coordinate measuring machine. The fast, non-contact, optical 3D scanners deliver a high-resolution point cloud which precisely describes free-form surfaces and primitives regardless of part sizes, surfaces, finishes, and geometries. ATOS provides three-dimensional measurement data and analysis for industrial components such as sheet metal parts, tools and dies, turbine blades, prototypes, injection molded parts, castings, and more.

 

Self-monitoring Systems

The high-resolution 3D scanners from the ATOS product line guarantee high process security. The proven stereo camera setup allows a completely self-monitoring system. Calibration and sensor movements are checked continuously preventing measuring errors and thus delivering accurate and reliable measuring data. The projection unit‘s narrowband Blue Light Technology enables precise measurements regardless of ambient light conditions.
Used in conjunction with GOM‘s professional inspection software, ATOS supplies full-field deviations from CAD, complete shape & dimension analyses, and comprehensive measurement & inspection reports.
ATOS 3D scanners are key elements of the entire process chain, from construction through to production and maintenance including shorter research and development times, faster production processes, and improved quality assurance within the entire lifecycle of the product.
Preset sensor models for different resolutions and measurement field sizes can be exchanged quickly and reliably. After the change, there is no need for re-calibration.
The projection technology developed by GOM operates with narrowband blue LED light. As a result, accurate measurements can be taken independently of ambient light conditions.
In ATOS Core, the two cameras are combined with the projector to capture three views of an object in a single measurement process. This requires fewer scans and delivers higher quality data – even on shiny and complex objects.
Thanks to the proven stereo camera setup, ATOS Core monitors its own activities. Calibration, transformation accuracy and component movements are subject to continuous control. This guarantees that the system generates reliable and precise measurement data.
Different software packages are available for ATOS Core. In GOM Scan, the focus is on 3D meshes, while ATOS Professional offers a broad range of functions for parametric inspection.
To enable quick and accurate component and fixture referencing, ATOS Core can be extended to include a photogrammetry option – with TRITOP for manual or ATOS Plus for automated applications.

Measuring System for Optical 3D Deformation Analysis

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiry

Optical 3D Deformation Analysis

OMA Company’s ARAMIS helps users to better understand material and component behavior and is ideally suited for monitoring experiments with high temporal and local resolution. ARAMIS is a non-contact and material independent measuring system providing 3D surface coordinates, 3D displacements and velocities, surface strain values, and strain rates.
Unlike other techniques, ARAMIS is a robust solution for full-field analysis of small specimens (mm) and up to large components (multiple 10 m). Measurements are carried out independently from geometry and temperature without timeconsuming and expensive specimen preparation.
ARAMIS is the solution for determination of material properties, component analysis, verification of finite element analysis, and real-time controlling of testing devices.

 

Sub-pixel accurate image processing for 3D surface, displacement and strain measurement

ARAMIS evaluates high-resolution images recorded from any test object during loading. With the help of adjustment computations, a precise mathematical calibration model of the sensor setup is calculated including camera positions and lens distortion parameters.
The image processing is based on the principle of digital image correlation. Gray value distributions are calculated for a large amount of small subsets in each camera image and provide sub-pixel accurate positions about corresponding points between all images.
The mathematical model of the sensor setup, the digital image correlation method and a triangulation calculation are combined to derive highly accurate 3D coordinates. Subtracting the surface information in all loading stages in 3D space provides precise X,Y and Z displacement values.
Strains are calculated considering the component‘s geometry and plasticity theory. As the image acquisition is time-based, 3D velocities and strain rates are automatically achieved.
ARAMIS provides the measurement results as full-field 3D coordinates, displacement strains, fine resolution 3D mesh, plain strain tensor, and object contour based visualization.

High-definition Visual Inspection System

https://korean-electronics.com//inquiryVisual inspection, magnifying glasses, and microscopes are generally used as product inspection methods in industrial sites. Such methods, however, require a long time of inspections and thus lead to the sharp decline of productivity by causing fatigue increase, declining sight, and lack of motivation for workers.
As a result, many workers in industrial sites are reluctantly choosing to leave their work, causing greater loss to businesses.
Accordingly, the high definition visual inspection system developed by Dae Duk Image Corporation is strongly recommended. If workers can use this system, they can be definitely free from being exposed to fatigue increase, declining sight, and lack of motivation for works. This product can thus provide a better working environment to workers and increase the operation efficiency significantly.
This visual inspection system is largely used for production-related inspection in all areas of industries. Currently Dae Duk Image largely manufactures three models of high definition visual inspection system – FPCB230, FPCB430, and FPCB320.
These models, having much in common in functional features, can directly store the high-definition image at a camera and measure the targeted object by using non-complicated measuring software without a computer. These models’ shutters can be operated manually. The image size to be stored is 1920 x 1080x 240 bit. The pixel of the image to be stored is 2.75 x 2.75 um. The exposure of the three models can be adjusted both automatically and manually.
Established in 1999, Dae Duk Image Corporation is a professional image and analysis equipment company that supplies image interpretation and analysis equipment including visual inspection equipment, microscope system, industrial X-Ray inspection equipment, EDS, etc.
Dae Duk Image has made ceaseless efforts for improvement of service technology and customer satisfaction and it is thus considered a highly trusted company by its clients based upon its high-level technology, honesty, and sincerity.
Since Dae Duk Image’s products are medium-and low level priced industrial inspection equipment, its equipment’s manufacturing can be customized according to each client company’s specific requirements in the manufacturing process.
