The XTOP3D XTOM-TransForm-ROB automated blue-light 3D scanning and inspection system integrates a collaborative robot, a motorized rotary stage, and powerful software. To achieve full 360-degree measurement, the rotary stage features pre-configured mounting holes for fixtures and jigs; combined with the software's measurement grouping function, this enables seamless data acquisition—including the underside—and facilitates fully automated 360-degree 3D measurement. It is ideally suited for rapid, automated, and line-side inspection of small-to-medium-sized components (up to 500mm).
Simultaneous Gains in Accuracy and Efficiency
On standardized production lines, manual inspection often struggles to maintain consistent efficiency and repeatability, creating a need for automated 3D scanning and inspection solutions. The XTOM-TransForm-ROB system meets these requirements by integrating data acquisition with inspection analysis, delivering high measurement accuracy while significantly boosting scanning and inspection efficiency.
Product Features
Automated Blue-Light 3D Scanning and Inspection
