Smart dimensional measurements in high-series automotive industry

Dimensional measurements in automotive industry present a critical point in maintaining product quality. This paper tackles the possibilities for dimensional measurements of bearing rings in high-batch production. Considering the very narrow tolerances, contact measurement methods make an established and reliable approach. Contact measurement methods are however time- consuming and demand a highly specialized device for each product measured. With the aim of reducing the time required to measure dimensional and geometrical features of cylindrical parts from the automotive industry while keeping the same level of accuracy, non- contact optical measurement methods based on laser light are proposed. The paper shows the idea of an innovative non-contact measurement system which utilizes laser diode and position sensitive detector.
