Gear Shafts

3D Inspection for Gear Shafts with VisionCommander®

Overview

Raw cast gear shafts must endure extreme environments and meet exacting standards to perform effectively. Inspecting these complex, uneven parts quickly and reliably presents significant challenges. To address this, senswork introduced an advanced 3D inspection system powered by VisionCommander® software, designed to meet these requirements.

Application

senswork’s advanced 3D inspection system integrates multiple inspection technologies:

  1. 3D Laser Scanning: The shell surface of each gear shaft is meticulously scanned using high-precision lasers, capturing subtle irregularities and deviations.
  2. 3D Surface Sensors: Two specialized sensors inspect the end faces of the gear shafts, ensuring no imperfection goes unnoticed.
  3. VisionCommander® Software: The high-performance image processing software analyzes data from the sensors, delivering smooth and accurate evaluation within seconds.

The Results

This robust solution guarantees a comprehensive 360° inspection for every gear shaft, ensuring:

  • Detection of chipping, shape deviations, and diameter variations on all critical surfaces.
  • High-speed evaluation to maintain production efficiency.
  • Consistent performance even in harsh industrial environments.
