Leitz Reference BX high-precision blade and glass measurement solution

As a high-speed scanning solution, Leitz Reference BX is perfectly suited for professional measurement tasks with industry characteristics, such as non-contact inspection of various turbine blades and fan blades, or inspection of smartphone glass in the electronics industry. Its unique design enables it to measure complex shaped workpieces with maximum efficiency without affecting measurement accuracy. It can even measure very demanding materials that traditional detection methods cannot handle, such as carbon fiber, glass, or ceramic components.

The system integrates 4-axis linkage scanning function, non-contact white light sensor and sensor automatic replacement system. At the same time, the system can also support ultra high precision contact sensors to measure features with strict tolerance requirements or difficult to access non-contact sensors.

This model has two main application directions: blade inspection and glass inspection.

Due to the configuration of the four axis scanning function, the Leitz Reference BX coordinate measuring machine (CMM) can ensure high accuracy in a single measurement task while reducing potential measurement time by up to 50%. The horizontal installation of the measuring head allows users to measure all features of blades or 3D glass without the need to increase the rotation of the measuring seat or reduce accuracy.

Improve the efficiency of blade inspection
During a detection cycle, contact measurement and non-contact measurement each perform their respective duties. The Precitec S3 optical sensor is used for high-speed measurement of airfoils, while the HP-S-X1C fixed scanning probe is used for precise inspection of tenon profiles. The use of the professional blade detection module QUINDOS Blade can simplify the measurement of blade leading edge radius, tangent line, blade profile thickness, blade profile, blade root, and average outer arc line, improving detection efficiency.

Measurement of thickness of transparent materials
The rapid development of screen design and technology has enhanced the user experience of smartphones, but it has also posed challenges to quality control. Traditional 2D image measurement methods can no longer meet the requirements of 3D glass inspection with complex surfaces and strict tolerance requirements. The Precitec S3 confocal white light sensor can easily handle measurement tasks that traditional measurement methods cannot solve, and protect sensitive surfaces from potential scratching risks caused by contact measurements. In addition, white light technology can be used to evaluate material thickness. Using QUINDOS software, measurement results can be displayed as point clouds, 2D profiles, or 3D color difference maps.
