Metrology Automation

ASCAN is the solution for fully automated measurement routines. Define your scan settings, surface analyses and filters once and receive high-accurate, consistent resultsĀ  – completely user-independent. Boost your efficiency and accuracy in production with ASCAN.

Key Features

Fully automate your 2D and 3D measurement and analysis routines with ease, streamlining complex processes for maximum efficiency without user interferance.

The systemā€™s built-in camera or sensor uses fiducial recognition for automatic detection – with the software adjusting to the detected position and rotation. This can be applied globally across an entire batch, individually for single samples or as a combination of both for versatile operation.

Create and edit programs easily with an intuitive, menu-driven interface – no programming skills required.

Utilize the sensor, expand your system with an integrated code/OCR reader or connect an external code reader via USB. Codes can be read, processed and applied to automatically select the measurement program.
Configure measurement routines for individual samples or entire batches, enabling fully automated measurement and analysis processes.

Define tolerances (UCL, LCL, UWL, LWL) easily through ASCANā€™s intuitive interface, which provides direct and clear visual feedback for the operator if the values are in the tolerances or not.

The system features integrated SPC (Statistical Process Control), data recording and external (web) server support, enabling seamless integration into your production environment with optional SECS/GEM compatibility.

The system features integrated user management – enabling assignment of roles with tailored access levels, including admin, operator or custom user-defined permissions.
This functionality enhances security and control, ensuring that each user only accesses the features relevant to their role, promoting a streamlined and secure workflow.

Automated Analysis

ASCAN offers over 500 individual analysis and more than 100 data operations. These can be fully automated, allowing measurements and analyses to be done without user intervention. This automation ensures consistent, repeatable results with fast feedback time and reducing the potential user errors.

Perform 2D measurements and analysis with over 100 individual analysis:

  • Height / Flatness
  • Area
  • Angle
  • Print Anaylsis
  • Roughness (i.e. Ra, Rz)
  • Feature Sizes
  • Edge Analysis
  • Histogramm
  • Fillet Height
  • and many more
  • Handles measurements with up to 500 millions datapoints
  • Multi-Thread Technology for fast data hand anaylsis processing
  • Parallelization of most analysis and data operations allows for simultaneous scanning and analysis, ensuring no time is lost in the process.

Create templates for analysis, measurement and reference areas, data operations and 3D map or 2D visualization, allowing for streamlined and consistent workflows.

Once designed, these templates can be applied automatically or manually, saving time and ensuring uniformity across multiple samples or processes.

Export raw measurement data, results or 3D and 2D images of your measruements in a vast variety of formatsĀ  in dataformats like csv, PCD Point Cloud, Standford Polygon File, image files like tiff, jpg, png or many more.

Manually in ScanCT or automated in ASCAN.
