Perceptron Awarded Large Helix 3D Scanning Sensor Order in China
PLYMOUTH, MI — Perceptron Inc., a global provider of 3D automated metrology solutions and coordinate measuring machines, announced that a German automotive manufacturer selected Perceptron gauging and robot guidance for their manufacturing facility in China.
The project includes six stations in total: four in-line gauging, one in-line robot guidance for form and pierce, and one near-line closure panel gauging. All stations feature Helix sensors, including both structure-mounted and robot-mounted, to measure features such as threaded studs, hemmed edges and complex holes. Perceptron’s measurement algorithms allow measurement of non-standard hole shapes, which are increasingly used by manufacturers to error-proof their build process.
