Dimensional Inspection Using 3D Scanning Technology for Digital Twin and Quality 4.0
What is a Dimensional Inspection Report? • Inspection is a critical step during the product life cycle, from product development to production. • This process confirms that the product is within specifications and tolerance while also providing the insight needed to optimize the overall process. • Manufacturers generate dimensional inspection reports to analyze crucial geometric elements to optimize design, manufacturing, and production processes
These reports compare 3D data collected during the measurement process to the nominal CAD data. The information is collectively compiled into an inspection report to display a detailed digital twin 3D visualization of the resulting measurement (actual) data of the part or tooling compared to the nominal. • This 3D data visualization exposes deviations quickly, so manufacturers understand where the part or tooling is in or out of tolerance. Other important information such as sectional analysis, GD&T, trend/SPC analysis, surface defects, and CMM-type reports are also included. • These inspection reports are fully customizable, with the option to utilize a template to generate reports automatically.
Inspection Reports for Digital Twin and Quality 4.0 • Aerospace/Power Generation: Turbine Engine Airfoil Inspection • Automotive: Body in White (BIW) Metalforming and Digital Assembly • Automotive: Trunk Lid Metalforming
Aerospace/Power Generation: Turbine Engine Airfoil Inspection • GOM Software's airfoil features provide advanced industry-focused inspection evaluations for turbine engine components, including turbine blades, blisks, stators, and other parts requiring high accuracy. • ATOS 3D scanners complete measurement and inspection of these critical engine components rapidly, increasing throughput while retaining accuracy. • With these expanded inspection capabilities, manufacturers quickly examine turbine engine components in-depth, enabling them to focus on safety, expand design capabilities, and do more with their data in a comprehensive and reliable analysis. • This inspection report highlights the software's airfoil functionality, including inspection of profile mean line, profile centroid, and profile thickness of turbine blades based on 2D sections. The inspection report also highlights details such as leading and trailing edge, bow and sweep, and seven-point nest casting alignments.
Automotive: Body in White (BIW) Metal forming and Digital Assembly • Body in White (BIW) is the metal skeleton of a car welded together where other stamped parts, such as the doors and trunk lid, will be hung. Executing BIW inspection is challenging because the welded frame contains numerous features, such as holes, slots, studs, and trim edges. • The size of a BIW makes using a CMM for inspection challenging and time-consuming due to programming time. However, using an ATOS blue light 3D scanner for BIW inspection allows manufacturers to scan the entire body quickly, providing millions of accurate X-Y-Z data points. • With robotic ATOS technology, GOM's VMR (Virtual Measuring Room) software add-on module automatically programs the robot offline or online. The VMR also uses PMI/MBD CAD to create the inspection elements. Engineers simply import the CAD model, position it, and indicate the features that need to be measured..
Automotive: Trunk Lid Metal forming • The exact place to weld or grind is visible, clearly indicating how much to add or remove. Once the die is spotted, it can be scanned and benchmarked, so if the steel is broken or worn out, another piece can be cut to match the spotted piece. • After the die is in production, scanning it over time allows technicians to monitor the tool's wear. Companies often archive the digitized die scan data to use as reference in the future. • GOM's software enables digital assembly of the individual stamped parts that make up an entire assembly, allowing for further analysis in a centralized area regardless of the physical part's location. • This inspection report includes analysis of surface curve from edge, pass/fail surface comparison, surface point inspection, hole deviation analysis that visibly displays hole position showing the direction of deviation. The report also includes trim deviation analysis detailing continuous color deviation along edge curve and trim point inspection analysis, as well as slot deviation analysis.
