System features of the FFTmetrology VisionView Recognition of various features
Holes
The VisionView recognizes a wide variety of holes. It calculates the shape, size, depth and much more.
Studs
The measuring system also recognizes the different studs in their length, width or shape.
Surfaces
Surfaces such as edges and gaps are also measured here. Our measuring system calculates the gap width or the angle of the edge.
Alignment
The system also calculates the orientation of the various shapes.
The FFTmetrology VisionView software FFT as a service provider
FFT can show you various preliminary simulations based on the CAD file.
The data obtained can be used to create a simulation of the position grid or a measuring position and a robot simulation.
We offer a quick setup of the prepared measurement plan and robot path on site. Furthermore, changes and extensions to the measurement tasks, including completely new types, are possible at any time.

FFTweldtec Measuring Station
Measuring Station for welding guns
Professional calibration of servo-pneumatic and servo-motorised robot welding guns, including determination of the deflection of the electrode arm geometry using 3D measuring systems and logging.
FFTmetrology RGS
Robot Guiding System
The FFTmetrology RGS system is used to guide the robot to a calculated ideal position rather than to a teached position. For this purpose, 2D or 2.5D images are first captured and calculated.
FFTmetrology iPS
intelligent positioning system
It is determined the deviations of the vehicle bodies in just one station. The result can then be used for optimization in the following stations. The condition is that the body positioning in each station is the same and stable.
FFTmetrology BeadControl
Intelligent Adhesive layering control
The FFTmetrology Bead Control scans the adhesive bead and precisely measures its position, width and height. The measurement takes place while the adhesive is being applied, thus avoiding a loss of cycle time.
FFTmetrology VisionCheckup
Completeness check system
This system can be used to reliably check the placement of add-on elements and features, e.g. welding studs, holes, embossing, etc., so that missing or incorrectly placed parts are recognised immediately. It can be designed for 2D and 2.5D.
FFTmetrology VisionView
Optical quality inspection of large-volume components
FFTmetrology VisionView offers fast, precise quality control of individual components through to entire car bodies in automated manufacturing processes. It is suitable for various features such as holes, surface points, distances, etc.
FFTmetrology Gap & Flush
Measurement of gap and flush values
FFTmetrology Gap & Flush is an automatic robot-based solution for stable measurement of gap and flush values.
For this application, the FFT VG DH (laser triangulation using a dual-head sensor) is ideal.
FFTmetrology HemQC
3D detection of the seam quality
FFTmetrology HemQC inspects the quality of the folded edge during the roll folding process. This is a scanning procedure in which the width and height of the fold or the excess adhesive is measured.
