AVR300 Multi-Sensor Vision System

The L.S. Starrett Company has enhanced its AVR300 Multi-Sensor Vision System with a 0.14 magnification lens featuring the largest field of view to date for Starrett on the AVR Series at 2.36” x 1.90” (60 mm x 48 mm). For greater efficiency and accuracy, more of the part can be viewed in every image on the new AVR-FOV 0.14X system. Due to “superimage” technology, which allows multiple images to be stitched together to form one larger image, together with the system’s touch probe technology, the AVR-FOV 0.14X can accurately inspect a wide range of features on large or complex parts, as well as on multiple small parts.

The AVR-FOV 0.14X automated parts program deliver accurate results to the micron level in a matter of seconds with “Go/ No-Go” tolerance zones, and data are provided in one easy-to-interpret report. These features allow metrology users in manufacturing facilities or QC labs to produce accurate, fast and repeatable results.

Equipped with the M3 software package from MetLogix, a traditional mouse as well as a touch screen monitor make user interaction easy and intuitive. Auto part recognition enables creating a part measurement program that comprises the desired features of a part for inspection, which can automatically be saved in the system or to a network. Programmable light output options can be built into the program as defined steps, including being called up as the part recognition program initiates. Once the program is created, placing that part within the camera’s fieldof-view allows for the saved program to initiate and run the inspection. A Renishaw Touch Probe may also be utilized for quick acquisition of discreet points along a part’s profile as well as Z-axis measurements.

The AVR-FOV 0.14X has an X-Y-Z travel of 12” x 8” x 8” (300mm x 200mm x 200mm). The Starrett AVR-FOV 0.14X Multi-Sensor Vision System is made in the U.S.

PCR50 Rotary Parts Collector

HSI Machinery and FSI announce the addition of the new PCR50 Rotary Parts Collector. a

The PCR50 utilizes a rotating swing chute to collect springs, stampings, screws, bolts or other small parts into different cartons or bins.

Features of the PCR50 include automatic lot control for defective parts; scheduled bin changing by quantity or time (by weight is also possible); connection with the manufacturing machine for automatic operation; applications for springs, stamping, screws and plastic parts; and a swing chute that rotates 360 degrees to collect and load the parts into different cartons or bins.
