Alicona Cobot

Collaborative optical 3D measurement sensor with robotic armThe Alicona Cobot range consists of a collaborative six-axis robot and an Alicona R25 optical measurement sensor based on focus variation providing repeatable and traceable high-resolution measurements in production conditionsExamples from the Cobot series are the CompactCobot, the TurbineCobot or the DiscCobot, which are used in the aircraft, automotive and cutting tool industries for industrial quality assurance and are tailored to meet the requirement. The systems are mobile and are positioned as required including to measure components directly in the machine tool.Simple teach-in programming does not require metrology knowledge making the systems ideal for the measurement of small features on large components along with surface finish and dimensional accuracy in the factory.With the automation software, any series of measurements are defined at several positions, which the operator then starts at the touch of a button. Control and measurement are fully automated, and after completion the worker receives a measurement report indicating OK or not OK.
