The 3D Profile Unit enables the calculation of several individual profiles of scanCONTROL 30xx sensors in a common coordinate system. This is how a composite 2D profile or a composite 3D point cloud can be generated. So the detection of various geometries, the extension of measuring ranges and the performance of thickness measurements is possible. The exact assignment of the position of the sensor to the position of the measurement object can be carried out via the integrated encoder inputs.
The evaluation of the data and the parameterization of the system can be implemented in the 3DInspect software. The 3D Profile Unit controller has an integrated evaluation feature in conjunction with the Industrial Ethernet connection, enabling the application to be controlled and measured values to be output to a PLC. Alternatively, the 3D Profile Unit controller can also be integrated into common image processing programs via GigE Vision and acts as a raw data provider.
