Leakage Tester

Yes, and it is standard capability rather than a paid add-on. The host software provides multiple interfaces: TCP sockets, Modbus TCP and discrete I/O handshaking for PLCs, and REST APIs or direct database access for MES, ERP and QMS. Work orders, serial numbers, measurement results, verdicts and reject reasons can all be exchanged bidirectionally. The process is: agree on the interface and field mapping, commission in a test environment, validate with real work orders, then switch over on site. If the counterpart system only supports file exchange (CSV/XML), polling a shared folder is also supported.

Four conditions should be confirmed before installation: the machine footprint plus service access, allowing maintenance clearance around the unit; table load capacity and levelness, with precision equipment placed on a separate foundation or vibration-isolated table away from presses and compressors; power, typically single-phase 220V with a stabilized or isolated supply and reliable earthing; and environment, avoiding direct sunlight and air-conditioner drafts because temperature and humidity swings directly affect repeatability. With a formal quotation we provide the installation conditions checklist and a site layout drawing for preparation.

It depends on part geometry and locating requirements. Regular, flat, orientation-independent parts usually need only a simple locating block, which is cheap and quick to change over. Irregular or rolling parts, parts needing multi-face measurement, and cases where repeat locating accuracy must approach the equipment's own repeatability call for a dedicated fixture, otherwise locating error eats directly into the measurement margin. Fixtures can be built in-house or designed and manufactured by us; determine this during the trial stage so you do not discover handling problems only after the machine arrives.

Yes. Measurement programs are stored as product configuration files, so changeover means calling up the right program, usually taking seconds to tens of seconds depending on whether the fixture changes. The system can store an unlimited number of product programs and call them automatically by work order, barcode or PLC signal, avoiding manual program selection errors. With barcode scanning, an operator simply scans the part or work order to switch both program and acceptance criteria. This is one reason we use a configuration-driven architecture: adding a product requires only a new or adjusted configuration, not a code change.

Single-shot capture with parallel computation is what gives the speed advantage: per-part measurement typically falls in the sub-second to several-second range, depending on the number of features, image-processing complexity, and whether multiple exposures or viewing angles are needed. Distinguish pure measurement time (from trigger to result) from line takt (including loading, locating and unloading), since the latter is the real capacity constraint. For high-speed lines, effective throughput can be raised with multi-station parallelism, robot-mounted on-the-fly measurement, or line-synchronized triggering. Give us your feature count and target takt for measured data.

The effects are real and are among the most common on-site issues in precision measurement, so they should be addressed at the design stage. Ambient light: use an enclosed measuring chamber or light shield, keeping direct sunlight and flickering sources out of the field of view. Vibration: physically isolate the machine from presses and compressors, using a vibration-isolated table or separate foundation if necessary, because vibration directly destabilizes edge extraction. Temperature: both part and machine expand thermally, and a 1°C change can produce observable dimensional drift over hundreds of millimetres, so a temperature-controlled shop or temperature-compensated calibration is recommended. The installation conditions checklist states the environmental requirements for each model.
