For the past few years, with the increasing of competition in the auto industry, the quality and accuracy become the new focus of automobile companies.

There are many Auto Parts with complex shapes, numerous detailed hole sites and complicated framework, which require inspection method with high accuracy, high efficiency as well as intuitional inspection result.

SCANTECH optical 3D measuring technology has well-developed application in the automobile industry. In the next part, we will take example of some different components to show how SCANTECH helps with the production of auto parts.

Inner Trim Inspection

Inner trim includes dashboard, seat, ac system and many other components, which means inner trim producers need a multifunction device to fulfill the inspection mission for all kinds of auto parts. SCANTECH KSCAN Composite 3D Scanner is a perfect choice of that device. KSCAN scanner has a Scanning accuracy of 0.020mm and scanning area of 1440mm * 860mm, it also has built-in photogrammetry system as well as multiply scanning mode such as speed scanning, detailed scanning, deep hole scanning, so it can be adapted to the accurate scanning under all kinds of production conditions.

Rear Axis Inspection

The measurement of surface deviation and angles makes it difficult to inspect the rear axis. Traditional checking fixtures are unable to reflect the accurate deviation, but it won’t be a problem for KSCAN Composite 3D Scanner. KSCAN can perform non-contact scanning with a few markers and provide complete data including details of all angles within 10 minutes. The whole process does no harm to the object.

Rear Mirror Inspection

SCANTECH TRACKSCAN Tracking 3D Scanner are free of markers, it can ensure the accuracy of 0.025mm. The whole process costs less than 3 minutes. The data from scanning can be compared with CAD model, generating intuitional inspection report and identifying the size deviation for quality control and producing craft improvement.
