Gear alignment automated with vision application from Radix
POSTED 04/03/2019
Radix Technology Solutions, a division of the AIS Technologies Group, is pleased to announce the release of a new vision application at the trade show & conference “Automate 2019”. This vision application, called Gear Tooth Alignment Analytics, is designed to automate the process of precisely aligning differential pinion & gears.
This configurable vision application inspects individual gear teeth (drive & coast), precisely calculating gear mesh contact patterns. With real-time feedback to the operator, this stand-alone application ensures the achievement of rapid & accurate pinion & gear alignment. Additional data provided by Gear Tooth Alignment Analytics includes length & width of pattern, position along the flank, total contact area, along with other metrics of value to gear analysis. An additional benefit to this product is that it requires only minimal rouging on each gear – a process and material savings of substantial value.
