Extrusion International USA 5-2021

35 Extrusion International 5/2021 AllRounDia Dual Vision (DV) is based on PIXARGUS’ suc- cessful and proven Pro fi lControl-7 technology. Adapted and further optimized for themeasurement of plain round shapes, the new system expands the limits of round prod- uct inspection. It combines high-performance technology with an extremely compact design. The camera frequency is software-controlled. Therefore, the system no longer needs an external encoder. This makes AllRounDia DV more fl exible to use, as it can be easily switched between lines. The system comes with a straightforward and intui- tive HMI. It can be operated either directly via its display or remotely via a tablet PC. High-performance lighting concept detects high-contrast defects down to 0.1 mm The Two-in-One system uses “real” LED light for surface inspection, unlike conventional systems which work on laser-light basis. Due to the newly developed lighting concept, the fi eld of vision and the measuring fi eld are always perfectly lit. Precisely for this reason, even dif fi cult to detect irregularities and fl aws in the material, such as fi ssures, inclusions, fl ecks and other high-contrast defects from a size down to 0.1 mm, can be reliably detected. Gapless 360-degrees inspection of products with round and oval contours The camera-based dimension measurement uses laser tri- angulation. This makes it the fi rst ever system capable of measuring products with round and oval contours gap- lessly around their complete circumference. While con- ventional axis-based measurements using the shadowing method cover only six single points, the optical sensors of AllRounDia DV can capture 4 million pixels. This enables them to dependably detect even smallest topographic fl aws. As a Windows-based system, AllRounDia DV comes with all common interface ports and is easily integrated into corporate network structures.

A display shows the measured data in real time. Thus, fl aws can be detected immediately and process control adapted accordingly in a swift and ef fi cient manner MEASURING SYSTEMS FOR ROUND PRODUCTS For everything round: AllRounDia DualVision canmeasure diameters and ovality and inspect the complete surfaces of round products of a wide range of materials AllRounDia DualVision – the fi rst ever system combining complete 360° contour measurement and surface inspection of round products within one simultaneous process. Further performance-enhancing features of the system are its intuitive HMI and the ease of being integrated into the production line
