surfaceCONTROL Automotive – Fully automated surface inspection of raw car bodies

MICRO-EPSILON MESSTECHNIK GmbH & Co. KG

SurfaceCONTROL Automotive is a robot-based inspection solution for fully automated surface inspection of raw car bodies. The system uses the principle of structured light projection and, with the help of a learning process, detects local shape defects such as dents, bumps, or scratches with the highest precision. In addition to its high reproducibility, the solution offers outstanding area coverage of ≥ 97%, integrated 6D position correction for automatic compensation of position deviations, and individual, AI-based defect classification. Defect detection is reliable even in edge areas, on design edges, and in strongly curved zones such as door handle recesses—as well as on stripped areas of the raw car bodies. Thanks to this extremely high coverage, flawlessly inspected raw car bodies can be transferred directly to the paint shop without manual visual inspection.
