	Optical scanning of profiles by using the laser split-beam method

	A system for quality control should neither interfere with the production flow nor should it increase costs considerably. Whether a cold roll formed profile lies within the necessary tolerances can only be verified by measuring it after it has passed the last forming pass. Until now it has been necessary to use a trial-and-error method by cutting off a profile segment and check it on a profile projector. Because of the spring-back effect known from cross sections and due to incorrect cut of the results achieved by this method haven´t been reliable at all. Another disadvantage of this way of quality control is that production errors are recognized too late in the work-flow. This results in otherwise avoidable scrap material. In order to get quick and reliable measuring results it is preferable to use a device designed for continuous quality control directly inside the roll forming mill. The COPRA® ProfileCheck uses the laser split-beam method. This method enables the user to check any kind of profile inside the running machine.

Several sensors of the COPRA® ProfileCheck – it can be compared to data M´s COPRA® LaserCheck in design and function – are positioned in such a way that they face those critical areas of the profile cross-sections inside the rollforming machine which the user wishes to check. The control computer shows all actual measurements (e. g. angles or radii) on the screen. The user receives a message about whether the values are still within given tolerances.

The user receives a message about whether the values are still within tolerances. The section you can see on the screen has a length of 50 x 50 mm. One measurement cycle lasts approx. 0,1 seconds per sensor. The whole profile can be measured twice (with 4 sensors) in less than 1 second. The measurements are recorded and can be passed via an integrated network card on to EDM-systems or to a control.
A check record in Excel-format is also available.
