World novelty - Q-buddy
The world's first Q-buddy® is a highly efficient unit designed to perform a full quality inspection of mechanically machined precision parts directly at the production machine. Operating personnel immediately receives a message should production parts deviate from a given warning limit. If such deviation exceeds the intervention limit, parts are automatically sorted out. Using an interface, the system production can be automatically stopped.
How does quality inspection work?
The operating principle of the system relies on a highly accurate measurement of the part weight. If the weight lies within narrow tolerances, we are most likely dealing with a stable and well-designed process, which thus produces precision parts with tolerances. To achieve high measurement quality, parts are automatically cleaned and dried in Q-buddy® before weighing.
Q-buddy - The advantages at a glance
- Highest productivity: cleaning, inspection and sorting of up to 180 production parts per hour. Lightweight and compact.
- Real-time monitoring: Visualisation of production data from several lines online or on mobile devices possible via BI software.
- Easy operation: Adjustable 15.6 inch HDMI touch screen for entering production data and displaying operating states and measurement results.
- Digitalisation: Makes all production machines suitable for Industry 4.0. No interface to the control system necessary. Connected to the network or standalone.
- Predictive manufacturing: High-quality predictions thanks to algorithms, machine learning and pattern recognition. Reduced scrap rates.
- Universal use: The narrow design and the height-adjustable and adaptable feeder allow set-up on a wide variety of production machines.
