By equipping a Keyence handheld probe on a robot, it is possible to automate manual tasks, facilitate data exchange, create jigs, and perform setup.
We will automate the measurement of shapes such as board thickness, hole diameter, step differences, and gaps. Comparison with CAD data is also possible. We provide support as a SIr, including the design and production of jigs and clamps for measurement, as well as teaching. By automating and digitizing manual measurements using calipers and inspection tools, we contribute to our customers' digital transformation (DX). When acquiring and measuring 3D data, we can choose various methods and equipment based on factors such as the size, shape, tolerance, surface condition, and cycle time of the workpiece being measured. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, but our product can measure with higher precision than non-contact methods without human intervention. It is also advantageous that a system can be built not only in measurement rooms but also in manufacturing process sites, and the cost is kept lower compared to other systems. It is expected to be used in many fields such as automotive, motorcycle, home appliance parts, aerospace parts, and industrial equipment parts.

basic information
The Keyence 3D measurement probe system, which allows for simple measurements to be made manually, has been adapted for automatic measurement and inspection by mounting the probe on the end of an industrial robot and using teaching to make contact with the measurement points without human intervention. Each probing contact position is detected by a camera and automatically registered, judged, and exported as 3D coordinate data to the PC. It is possible to select a model of industrial robot that is suitable for the operational range of the workpiece. Because it is a contact measurement method, the accuracy is higher compared to non-contact measurements using lasers, and there is no concern about glare. Since the probe position is read by a separately installed camera, there is no influence from errors on the robot side.
