inos iMS - Absolute Inline Metrology

Absolute measurement of features in body in white and assembly

Beside the usual measurement of gaps and flushes in body in white and final assembly there are a lot of applications, where feature positions have to be measured in absolute car coordinates. This shall not only be done for random samples via CMM but for 100% of the car bodies. Inos offers the iMS ABS systems, which delivers within seconds the measurement results of up to more than 100 measurement features at an accuracy like a CMM.

Measurement tunnel and measurement robot

Depending on the application installations are based on robots or on tunnel constructions. Both systems deliver the same accuracy in the range of +/-0,1mm absolute.

Example: Fixtures for a convertible top

Inos is measuring with a robot based solution the fixtures in a car body for the convertible top. In dependence of the measurement result metal sheets will repositioned for a best position for the welding process. The welding result will then be measured again for control and documentation purposes.. v Aside the measurement task also a quality insurance guidance application is performed within this application.

100% Control and protocol

By this you can measure 100% of the car bodies with an accuracy like a CMM and within seconds you get the result figures and a documentation for every measurement feature.
