With the aim of facilitating access to automation, Creaform unveils the latest version of its VXscan-R software module, which includes innovative features guaranteed to offer the best operational and budgetary flexibility.
Creaform, an Ametek business unit and world leader in portable 3D measurement solutions and engineering services, today announced the launch of its new VXscan-R software module for the VXelements 10 platform. This latest version now offers advanced compatibility with a wider range of robots, including collaborative robots, taking simplicity and ease-of-use to a new level, and increasing quality control productivity.
VXscan-R software is an integral part of the renowned R-SeriesTM. It is the optimum automated 3D scanning solution for production line applications, whether as turnkey solutions or customizable layouts. VXscan-R offers a reliable and accurate digital twin environment for program preparation, scan simulations and execution. Used in conjunction with the MetraSCAN 3D-RTM, a robot-mounted optical CMM scanner, the R-Series is designed for companies that want to find defects faster and ensure that all parts are measured correctly, without human influence or subjectivity.
Discover the accessibility of the R-Series with VXscan-R and the many benefits of integrating it into your manufacturing and quality processes.
- Compatibility: This new version of VXscan-R is now compatible with collaborative robots (Fanuc CRX) as well as a variety of new industrial robots, making it suitable for all workflows, from large production lines to small and medium-sized companies.
- Simple deployment: Thanks to its lightweight, compact design, the new R-Series collaborative robots can be deployed quickly and easily, whatever the user's level of expertise or experience.
- Powerful: The MetraScan 3D-R offers high-performance optics, blue laser technology and 360° target coverage, delivering optimal measurement accuracy, speed, versatility and operational simplicity for any quality control task. It's exactly what you need to effectively solve productivity problems and improve product quality.
- Seamless integration: R-Series solutions are fully integrated with VXscan-R software, and whether as a customized layout or a turnkey solution, they fit seamlessly into any automated quality control process.
- Safety: Collaborative is not just a word. It means that the robot expects to work with and around employees. Safety functions, such as automatic shutdown in the event of resistance, are therefore essential to maintaining a safe working environment.
" By adding collaborative robots to the R-Series offering, and supporting more industrial robots, we can ensure that the best digitizing technology powered by offline programming software is available to companies of all sizes. explains Jérôme-Alexandre Lavoie, Product Manager at Creaform. The truth is, harnessing the power of automation has never been easier. "
