reflectCONTROL for 3D measurement and inspection of shiny surfaces

Resolution in the nanometer range

3D sensor for the measurement and inspection of shiny surfaces

reflectCONTROL sensors offer an innovative solution for defect detection on highly reflective and transparent surfaces. These sensors use phase-measuring deflectometry and enable full-surface measurement. In contrast to conventional visual inspection by humans, which involves a great deal of manpower and working time, the reflectCONTROL sensor delivers precise measurement results that allow a detailed analysis of the surface quality. Powerful software packages are available for evaluation and parameterization, which significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of surface inspection.

Deflectometry sensor for 3D measurements of shiny surfaces: RCS 130-160 3D HLP

Three-dimensional measurement of shiny surfaces

Features:

  • Measuring field 170 x 160 mm
  • For the measurement of highly reflecting, flat surfaces
  • Output of 2D base intensity, amplitude and curvature images
  • Output of 3D point clouds for high precision height measurement

The RCS130-160 3D HLP is intended for shape measurements of shiny objects. This sensor displays a striped pattern which is mirrored by the surface of the measuring object into the sensor cameras. The sensor provides a 3D image of the surface which allows for the topology of the components (e.g. flatness, deflection, curvature) to be determined. The RCS130 model is specially optimized for measurement and inspection tasks, e.g., in production lines. Moreover, the sensor has a GigE Vision interface that offers GenICam compliant data.

Surface inspection of shiny components: RCS 110-245 2D

Surface inspection of shiny components

Features:

  • Measuring field 110 x 245 mm
  • For the measurement of highly reflecting, flat surfaces
  • Output of 2D base intensity, amplitude and curvature images

The reflectCONTROL RCS110-245 2D with integrated controller is designed for stationary measurements or integration into machines. This compact sensor detects anomalies on shiny surfaces which are processed and displayed as reflectivity and curvature image by software. GigE Vision enables the transfer of surface images to a wide range of image processing software packages for further analyses.

Of course, all the functionalities of the RCS110-245 2D are also included in the reflectCONTROL RCS130-160 3D HLP. Both sensors therefore offer powerful solutions for surface inspection and enable seamless integration into existing systems.

Software integration via Micro-Epsilon’s 3D-SDK

reflectCONTROL is equipped with an easy-to-integrate SDK (Software Development Kit). The SDK is based on the GigE Vision and GenICam industry standards including the following function blocks:

  • Network configuration and sensor connection
  • Comprehensive sensor control
  • Control of image transfer
  • Management of user-defined parameter sets
  • C++ example programs and documentation

Accessing the sensor via GigE Vision is also possible without SDK if you have a GenICam client.
