The small and flexible tube coordination measuring arm
This small and handy 3D coordinate measuring arm is for fast and easy determination of the geometric data of bent tube figures. The device can be used likewise as 6D mouse in order to define a tube course within a default workspace with continuous background online-data acquisition.
Measurement of the tube cours can either be done by different contact probes, by non-contact infrared tube measuring fork, or - for free-form bent tubes - by means of a line laser scanner (TUBOSCAN ML).
The measuring data are continuously aquired and evaluated by the tube-specific measuring software. They can be edited in tabular form, in Excel format, as drawing or in CAD file format. Direct triggering of the tube bending machine is possible too.
Tubes, that exceed the basic measuring envelope of the TUBOSCAN M can also be measured continuously and without any difficulties, because the tube measuring software includes a so-called "leapfrog" function. Thereby the measuring arm is displaced while maintaining the actual coordinate system and without interrupting the measuring process.
