Fusion metrology software has been the foundation for Baty's camera based inspection systems for the last decade. The combination of ease of use, advanced edge detection and graphical reporting has established this remarkable software as the standard by which other vision packages are measured.
Fusion Features:
Dimensioned Part View
Measured results are displayed in the form of a fully dimensioned drawing. Dimensions within the specified tolerance are shown in green whilst dimensions out of tolerance are shown in red for immediate visual status of the measured part.
Geometric tolerances can also be displayed using the standard drawing practice. The final dimensioned part view can then be printed as an engineering drawing with a traditional drawing frame containing company details, customer and part details, date and inspection name.
SPC Included
Baty Fusion software will also display SPC batch information for multiple components. Information given includes maximum value in batch, minimum value, user definable sigma value, CPK value, mean shift and also plots two different charts of the batch data.
Easy Reporting
In addition to the graphical representation above, detailed reports can be instantly created showing the feature name, nominal dimension, actual, error, upper and lower limits and a green pass or red fail label for each measured dimension in tabulated format. Geometric tolerance details can also be displayed along with a thumbnail view of the part and batch/customer information.
The entire report can be duplicated as an Excel workbook for email.
Video Edge Detection
Video edge detection (VED) ensures a repeatable result without relying on the skill of the operator. Hundreds of data points can be taken in an instant to calculate standard geometric features. Standard VED tools include arc, circle, line, point, focus and curve.
Profile Scanning
The curve tool automatically traces the profile of an undefined part. The resulting data-point cloud can then be compared to a pre-toleranced DXF master for best fit analysis.
Touch Probe Compatible
Fusion metrology software is ready to accept touch probe measurements as well as optical and camera based. Offsets for each measuring system can be calculated enabling you to use a combination of non-contact measurements in the same inspection. An optional probe storage rack can also be used to allow automatic probe changes mid program.
CNC Operation
The CNC option enables fully automatic part inspection with teach and repeat programming and manual joystick control. Parts can be palletised for batch inspection and reports are generated automatically.
CAD Option
Allows measurement data points taken anywhere on the part surface to be compared to a 3D IGES or TIFF CAD model.
Programmable Segmented Light
Lighting is critical to ensure that the correct edge is measured. Baty’s new programmable LED lighting head allows the user to define any segment pattern to be switched on. This means that oblique lighting conditions can be achieved to illuminate more difficult edges.
Segments can then be rotated and intensity varied to suit the radial position of the edge. Once set, the lighting condition for each measured feature is now automatically programmed and will be reproduced by the software each time a new part is measured. Through the lens (TTL) lighting is included for applications like blind bore measurement. 64 white LED’s are used to ensure Venture’s high quality colour image is achieved.
