Testing and Measurement Technology

Automated testing and measurement technology for industrial quality assurance

 

Modern production processes often require precise testing and reliable evaluation of components. Our systems ensure that parts are fed into the testing process quickly, consistently, and accurately. The combination of feeding technology, image processing, and intelligent sorting solutions creates a seamless, integrated system that directly incorporates quality and efficiency into your production.

In addition to new systems, IFSYS also offers maintenance, servicing, and optimization of existing machines—always with the right solution for your process.

Feeding technology from the specialist

 

FeedingTechnology: Our strength

Automated parts feeding combined with integrated inspection and measurement technology tailored to the component enables a reliable, efficient, and seamless production process.

As specialists in feeding technology and testing and measurement systems, we develop the perfect overall solution for you – all from a single source and individually tailored to your process.

Our integrated inspection and measurement technology checks sorted parts during the feeding process in a fraction of a second. Using camera recognition, individual parts are examined for criteria that are often not visible to the naked eye—length, diameter, surface. Defective parts are immediately sorted out, ensuring that your production consistently delivers the highest quality.

 

Our Measurement Technology Solutions

 

 

Precise Inspection for Every Production Requirement


We offer flexible inspection and measurement solutions that are optimally tailored to your components and production processes. We utilize a variety of systems that enable precise measurements and inspections:

 

 

Measuring and Inspecting on the Glass Ring

Ideal for high-volume production and rapid inspections. The rotating glass ring allows each component to be inspected from virtually any angle. Properties such as size, shape, diameter, and surface finish are precisely checked, and defective parts are immediately rejected.

 

 

 

Measurement and Inspection on a Camera Conveyor Belt

Ideal for continuous production lines. On the camera conveyor belt, two-dimensional characteristics such as position, size, contour, or color can be precisely inspected during transport. This allows for efficient handling of medium to high throughput rates without interrupting the production flow.

 

Measuring and Testing on the Vibration Track

On the vibration track, characteristics such as position, size, diameter, and specific features—such as sealing rings or threads—can be precisely tested. Parts are handled gently during this process; no additional process steps are required, and no extra space is needed.

Visual checking     

 

Precise results in real time – for maximum quality assurance

Do the length, diameter, surface finish, or other desired properties of a component meet specifications? Is every part correctly positioned? Our testing and measurement technology provides you with reliable answers – quickly, automatically, and with complete documentation.

With customized sensors, integrated cameras, and state-of-the-art image processing, our systems set standards in optical inspection. A wide variety of component characteristics are precisely captured, evaluated in real time, and reliably documented with a speed and accuracy that the human eye could never achieve.

Glass ring technology is just one of many solutions. It enables a virtually complete 360-degree view, allowing components to be inspected from almost any perspective. A proven feeding system places the parts onto the glass ring and into the cameras' field of view. This allows for the reliable detection and evaluation of dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and even the smallest deviations such as scratches or deformations. Based on these results, the inspected parts are automatically sorted – quickly, precisely, and efficiently.

Our solutions adapt flexibly to your requirements and cover a wide range of testing tasks – from classic geometry and surface inspections to complex measurement processes under demanding conditions. This ensures the highest quality with maximum efficiency.

 

Solutions for test and measurement technology

  • Transmitted and reflected light testing for geometry and surface inspection
  • Form and position analysis
  • Dimensional measurements such as length and diameter
  • Inspection of specific properties (e.g., sealing rings or threads)
  • Detection of surface defects or damage
  • Free-fall testing with complete all-around scanning of the test piece
  • Simultaneous acquisition of multiple features using multiple cameras
  • Testing under demanding conditions or special requirements
  • Semi-automated manual testing and measuring stations
  • Tactile measurements using touch probes

Sorting

 

Versatile evaluation options – from parameters to self-learning software

After inspection, the parts are transported from the glass ring or glass turntable to the next process within fractions of a second – usually via precisely controlled bursts of air. Parts that are not blown off can be removed directly, disposed of, or reintroduced and inspected again. Whether it's simple separation of flawless and defective components or complex classification with self-learning software – we offer the right sorting solution for every requirement.

 

Sorting solutions

  • Direct sorting after inspection, without waiting times
  • Multiple sorting based on the inspection results
  • Conveying capacity of up to 500 parts/minute (depending on the component)
  • Flexible solutions, from manual to fully automated operation
  • Use of AI when complex classifications are required
  • Optimized feeding through automatic position detection

Integrating  

 

Interfaces with Downstream Processes

For a continuous production flow, we offer flexible and customized solutions: conveyor belts, chutes, lift systems, and other conveying options are part of our modular IFSYS feeding system. If your parts need to be packaged, we can count, weigh, package, and palletize them – all while maintaining 100% quality control. Right from the start, we determine the optimal measurement method and conduct test measurements. You receive the resulting feasibility studies free of charge, including comprehensive consultation until the final implementation of your individual solution.
