Weld Seam Inspection

Using laser triangulation, machine vision lasers precisely inspect weld seams on curved surfaces. This allows seams to be checked for weak points, ensures quality, and increases efficiency in the welding process.

Machine Vision Lasers

Inspection of Formed Parts

With laser projectors, bent parts can be inspected quickly and accurately through precise contour projection. Deviations become immediately visible, reducing waste and increasing process reliability in metalworking.

Possible Product Areas

Laser Projectors

Metal Cutting Saws

In metalworking, positioning lasers play an important role, especially in sawing systems. They ensure precise positioning of metal parts, which significantly accelerates the machining process. As a result, they optimize production, increase efficiency, and contribute to higher overall productivity.

Possible Product Areas

Positioning Lasers

Alignment of Rolled Sheets / Plates

Rolled metal plates must be precisely aligned after rolling for the next processing step, such as on a roller conveyor, in order to avoid waste.

Nesting & Part Sorting

The use of laser projectors makes sorting cut metal parts easier. Employees can then remove each highlighted part in the specified order and continue processing.

Possible Product Areas

Laser Projectors

Bin Picking

Triangulation sensors scan the inside of randomly loaded mesh containers before each pick and recalculate the arrangement of the parts inside. This information is passed on to the robot, which can then pick the next part. A laser projector also reliably displays the corresponding pick compartment as well as additional information such as quantity.

Displaying Measuring Points & Parts

When using a laser projector for measuring and inspection tasks, individual test steps are projected in a user-friendly way and in the predefined sequence. To select the correct measuring tool, the projector highlights it in the tool magazine with an arrow or frame. This ensures high-quality inspection results.

Setting up Tools, Systems, & Machines

During the setup of individual operations, a laser projector assists employees by guiding them through the setup process with easy-to-understand projections. It clearly displays the positions of supports, clamping devices, and components in detail.

Cold & Hot Hydraulic Forming

In hydraulic presses, the laser ensures repeatable precision when placing the component into the press.

Positioning Lasers

Drilling & Stamping

A cross line laser assists both in the correct placement of the metal plate/sheet and in the precise execution of drillings or punchings.

Positioning Lasers

Sheet Metal Bending & Folding

In so-called ‘free bending’ of sheets without back gauges, the use of a laser is necessary to achieve precise results.

Possible Product Areas

Positioning Lasers

Welding

Accurate positioning is a key factor for achieving clean results, not only in the production of complex 3D frame and structural parts. This step is made significantly easier with the use of laser projectors, which display the exact target position when tacking components.

Waterjet, Thermal & Laser Cutting

A positioning laser marks the exact point on the material where flame, waterjet, or laser cutting systems must be applied to cut the desired shape with millimeter precision.

Possible Product Areas

Positioning Lasers

Sawing & Cutting Operations

Line and positioning lasers make all types of sawing and cutting machines highly efficient to use. The laser is particularly helpful when no mechanical stop is available or when slabs and long sheets need to be cut.
