Robot-assisted multi-recording
Automated component holder replaces mechanical clamping devices
The Poly Robot Automated Fixture System (PRAFS) automates the virtual clamping of ScanBox technology from Carl Zeiss GOM Metrology.
PRAFS replaces manual component positioning with robot-controlled holding technology. The universal robot-supported multi-support system was developed by measuring specialist Protos-3D Metrology. The system stores several thousand different setups (holding positions for components), which can be called up from the component list via a touch panel. Once a component has been selected, the robots move to the loading positions.
The part is inserted and the measuring process is started at the touch of a button. It takes less than a minute to switch between different component types. The measuring process is fast and reproducibility is high. PRAFS replaces mechanical clamping devices.
