Data is knowledge – important process knowledge that you can use effectively to optimise your production. The IMS surcon 3D surface inspection system provides insights for the first time that have not been possible in this form and at these process stages before. It reliably detects various types of surface defects. Thanks to the three-dimensional approach, exact information on the depth of the defects becomes known. This means it can be evaluated and classified objectively. Responsible use of the resources available to us is becoming more and more fundamental for our environment. An important approach to solving this problem is to start quality control as early as possible. Our systems deliver results immediately – even in a hot state. Long cooling times for manual inspections are therefore no longer necessary.

Optical Measuring Systems | surcon 3D Surface Inspection of Heavy Plate 4/6 IMS Technology Enables 3D Inspection PIONEER IN MEASURING TECHNOLOGY SINCE 1980 IMS develops high-precision measuring systems for use in even the most difficult environmental conditions. Double-walled, water-cooled stainless steel housings, heat shields and special glasses protect the sensitive electronics and measuring equipment. The service life of our measuring systems, with consistently reliable performance, confirms our decades of expertise – for the quality of your products! It is not only the enormous heat radiation that presents the systems with great challenges. Heated air causes flickering. Powerful and individually adapted blowers and air guides ensure a controlled air column and thus guarantee a stable height measurement. Integrated online 3D calibration 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN LASER CONTOUR MEASUREMENT Increasing demands on the accuracy of radiometric thickness measurement meant that the positional influence of the material could no longer be neglected. For this reason, IMS has been using laser contour measurement for more than 20 years for exact position detection and thus provides optimal measurement results. WE KEEP UP WITH YOUR PACE By using the most powerful 3D sensors currently available, there is no need to slow down the production process. Our cameras easily keep pace with your process line speed and capture images in full resolution. SELF-DEVELOPED LASER TECHNOLOGY The quality of the laser lines has a decisive influence on the 3D images generated by the measurement. Line width, brightness distribution and focus must be matched optimally to this measurement task. To guarantee this, IMS has been using self-developed line lasers for 3D surface inspection exclusively since 2016.

Optical Measuring Systems | surcon 3D Surface Inspection of Heavy Plate 5/6 Get the Best Out of Your Data! SURFACES COME ALIVE A powerful and intuitive interface ensures that the most important results are always at hand. View the entire surface of current or past plates seamlessly. Zoom into any surface area and inspect defects in highest resolution. Views individually adapted to your requirements offer every user the most meaningful visual representation – from operator through quality engineer to research & development. Have the inspection results at hand at all times! With the help of our Mobile Inspector App (available for iOS and Android), you can compare the detected surface defects and the actual surface directly. Add your own images quickly and easily to complete your report. FROM IMAGE TO QUALITY DECISION Sophisticated algorithms and a powerful artificial intelligence scan the surfaces fully automatically for anomalies and surface defects. Periodic defects indicate roll damage – a serious problem as it also leaves an imprint on every subsequent plate. Our algorithms detect such periodic occurrences online and notify you immediately. An integrated quality evaluation module allows you to specify user-defined rules for evaluation of the plates and for alarm generation. Get immediate feedback on the quality of your product. MIA Mobile Inspector App UNLEASH THE FULL POTENTIAL Simple export and reporting functions allow you easy access to and use of surface inspection results for further analysis. The system offers you excellent support for your decision making. Nevertheless, you can customise everything from detection settings to quality classification. You have complete control.
