ZEISS Unveils OMNIA GC 220-180: High-Speed, Large-Format X-Ray Inspection for Automotive
ZEISS has unveiled the OMNIA GC 220-180, a new 2D X-ray inspection system tailored for high-volume automotive production. This advanced system is designed to swiftly and safely inspect large-format aluminum castings, such as battery trays and underbody structural components.
The OMNIA GC 220-180 can handle components up to 2200 × 1800 × 900 mm in size, despite its relatively compact footprint of 5 m × 2.7 m. It achieves this with high-precision Cartesian manipulators, ensuring smooth, linear motion even when inspecting intricate casting sections.
The system's X-ray beam can tilt ±60°, allowing rapid, flexible, and collision-free inspections from various angles. It travels at speeds up to 15 m/min, completing cycle times as fast as 3 - 3.5 seconds per view. This makes it ideal for high-volume production lines, operating both inline and atline.
Equipped with a user-friendly graphical interface and anti-crash simulation, the system's CNC-supported programming ensures quick and safe setup. It also boasts advanced Automatic Defect Recognition (ADR), fully automating inspection and evaluation, and complying with ASTM standards. Real-time monitoring and diagnostic functions further boost process reliability.
The ZEISS OMNIA GC 220-180 is set to revolutionize high-volume automotive production, offering swift, flexible, and reliable inspection of large-format aluminum castings. More information is available at www.zeiss.com/metrology.
