The ATOS ScanBox is a full-field mechanical measuring system that comprises of the hardware, ATOS professional software and the Virtual Measuring Room (VMR) software. The benefit of having a complete solution is that it is fully programmable, capturing up to 16 million points within 1-2 seconds. This automated system is ideally suited for the repeat measurement of products or batch inspection. Other benefits include: •Full traceability – This is achieved using a certified Probing Spacing Artefact (PSA) with a known chain of measurements, with associated uncertainties, back to a world standard. •The ability to fully automate the inspection process allows for a reduction in the production cycle, offering a quicker time to market with no reduction in quality. •Reduction in programming and processing time means that this is a cost-effective solution. •Easy to interpret reports are provided in a visual format that allow engineers to demonstrate the results of scanning and inspection. •Fixtures designed & manufactured in-house specifically for the part/s aids stability and repeatability, resulting in an overall cost reduction on the entire measurement project.

Traceability is the ability to define the unbroken chain of events that occurred in order to deliver the inspection result. It is achieved when the exact parameters of the calibration, measurement, geometry and reports can be distinguished, in order to verify the original component back to a validated artefact or standard. Traceability is important as it creates a chain of custody and liability for the measured part. The GOM optical measurement system and quality inspection software offers unprecedented traceability compared to other methods, such as laser scanners and arm based systems, because all measuring and reporting is carried out within a single piece of software, which records the following: •Calibration results •All measurement information •Part numbers can be recalled via digital imaging •Temperature is recorded •Processing and post processing operations •Parametric reporting is offered The GOM ATOS optical measurement system is a self-monitoring system which is certified by German national standards VDI/VDE (2634)

Our team of skilled metrologist and design engineers can also work with you to design and manufacture bespoke, high-end fixtures used to increase process stability and speed up work flows involved in part preparation, loading and measurement. See our design service page for more information on how this can support your project.

In addition to providing measurement with our own high-end equipment, we also offer our expertise to program your own GOM ScanBox measurement systems, across the range of series, ensuring that your project runs efficiently and achieves the desired outcome. With the recognition and increasing adoption of GOM scanning systems across the breadth of the UK engineering sector, Physical Digital is able to meet the demand for and provide a turnkey solution for automated data capture and inspection. Custom programming allows the ScanBox to execute a measurement and inspection plan, delivering results in a format of you choosing all through the GOM Kiosk Interface. This solution allows comprehensive inspection to be executed with minimal need for training
