Three coordinate measuring machine for measuring car body

Three coordinate measuring machine as the main equipment to support the automobile manufacturing industry and a step important body is an essential part of every car, regardless of its internal structure and external structure, are among the most highly valued automobile manufacturers. This is because the customer is not only to see the body from the aesthetic point of view to see whether it is beautiful, but also consider the anti-collision safety device, fuel saving, comfort, low noise operation, security and other factors. All these factors are related to the overall integrity and quality of the car body. Car body manufacturing involves some plastic processing large workpiece and sheet materials, so the error strictly maintain the size of the components in the tolerance range, to ensure the quality of body, is more difficult than the small parts manufacturing engine needs.

Mitutoyo has long been engaged in the production and marketing of three coordinate measuring machines for automotive bodies and their body measurements, and its sales have reached a record high. (see Figure 1)

(6) before measuring, there is no need to locate the workpiece and there is no need to place the target identification near the workpiece. When measuring geometric elements, contact sensors are still widely used because of their high measurement accuracy, and the operators are more accustomed to using them. But with the advent of new types of non-contact sensors, they are bound to be used more and more widely in the field of measurement. (see Figure 3.)

We expect that the measurement tasks now completed by the contact sensors mounted on the measuring machine will be increasingly replaced by contactless sensors in the future.

Contactless sensors have a revolutionary improvement in stability, enabling measurements from millions of measuring points. This is very useful for evaluating multiple surfaces, evaluating material thickness, or performing reverse analysis. (see Figure 4) non-contact sensors have been widely used in the assessment of the overall shape, shape changes such as the assessment module for measuring surface embedded operation, or to assess the stamping parts or components, the shape of the casting resin (including the comparison with 3D CAD data). They can also be used to measure virtual assembly demonstrations of body parts.
