Are you looking for a partner in 3D measurement technology who is familiar with a wide variety of measurement tasks across industrial sectors? The sigma3D team brings you over 20 years of measurement experience, expertise across a wide range of industries, and state-of-the-art mobile 3D measurement technology!
Measuring your industrial facilities, machines, and products requires not only the highest precision and reliability, but above all, field-proven application expertise: Whether it’s time-sensitive measurements in hard-to-reach areas of steel mills, surveying antennas at an altitude of 3,500 meters, or safety-critical monitoring of aircraft manufacturing facilities—our well-coordinated team can carry out every conceivable 3D survey for you!
For us, every project begins with your individual goals: Based on these, we work with you to define all requirements in a one-on-one consultation and document them for the measurement process. This enables our team to optimally plan all necessary measurement tasks, select the right 3D measurement technology, and immediately identify and resolve any potential issues. The result: fast and successful on-site measurements. In addition, we’re happy to provide you with long-term consulting on developing forward-looking measurement concepts for safe and efficient manufacturing and production processes.
We’d be happy to meet with you in person to present all the possibilities and benefits that mobile 3D measurement technology offers for your industrial manufacturing and production!
Your Benefits at a Glance
When it comes to fast and flexible solutions in tool and fixture manufacturing, you can count on the benefits of 3D measurement technology and our experience. Direct CAD integration with visual 3D data allows you to quickly compare actual results against target values for free-form surfaces or geometric elements.
Would you like to know what advantages this form of 3D quality control offers? We’ve prepared a case study from the automotive industry for you, which provides a detailed look at various analysis options.
3D measurement is our answer to the question of how industrial robots can consistently and reliably achieve optimal production results. Our mobile measuring devices make it possible to determine static and dynamic parameters for any type of robot—in accordance with ISO standards and directly on the production floor. This allows deviations to be detected and corrected immediately through calibration. Your benefit: successful production without any loss of performance!
We help you carry out 3D and 6D positioning work on your machines and systems cost-effectively and efficiently. 3D measurement technology enables us to quickly and thoroughly map every piece of equipment. Through the collaboration between our measurement teams and your assembly staff, your design specifications for the installation and modification of machines can be implemented precisely and efficiently.
Setup, inspection, adjustment—using state-of-the-art 3D measurement technology, we offer a wide range of flexible solutions for tool and fixture manufacturing. As part of your quality assurance process, we perform professional DIN-standard inspections of your machine tools, including volumetric compensation.
Extremely high accuracy, challenging environmental conditions, short operating times—the sigma3D team successfully developed and implemented a measurement concept for continuous casting lines. We’ll find the perfect solution for your metrology challenge, too!
Our team has many years of experience in surveying and aligning particle accelerators for renowned clients. We’ll develop a customized measurement plan for you, whether for new installations or routine maintenance of your facility. On-site, we use state-of-the-art 3D measurement technology—including a laser tracker—to measure magnets and other components quickly and with the highest precision. For all positioning work, we collaborate closely with your staff as a team.
The use of mobile 3D measurement technology enables us to fully capture even the largest areas as 3D data. When used for staking out the layouts of your manufacturing facilities, you benefit from reduced assembly and startup times as well as maximum planning reliability.
Robot cell calibration is the process of determining the robot’s own coordinate system relative to a higher-level system (e.g., production line, robot cell, fixture, …)
To determine the pose (= position and orientation) of a robot within the higher-level system, the robot is measured at multiple precise points in space, and the parameters for the robot controller are then calculated using a transformation equation.
Your benefit: Robot programs created offline can be reliably used without time-consuming re-teaching.
