SensoPRO

Rapid Quality Control

It has never been so easy to perform rapid quality control in a production line. Thanks to SensoPRO, a production line operator only needs to load the sample and follow guided instructions to get a pass/fail report. Plug-in-based data analysis algorithms provide a high degree of flexibility. New modules can be easily customized to other industry needs.

Our development team is used to working on customized solutions for those clients who do not find what they need among our other available packages. We offer the expertise of our engineers to find the solution that best suits the required application.

 

The consumer electronics market includes Semiconductors, Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) and Display industries, among others. SensoPRO has become a true money saving tool in many applications given its speed and automation.

The medical market works with highly demanding quality control and quality assurance standards. Sensofar’s 3D optical profilers enable fast, non-invasive and accurate control of the manufacturing process, as well as the quality control of surface texture.

The designing and manufacturing of tools directly affects the production quality of the end-user industry. SensoPRO is extremely fast analyzing the dimensions measurements of the valleys, flanks and peaks of thread or calculating the cutting edge radius of inserts and other cutting tools.


 

How does it work?

This 64-bit data analysis solution provides an environment for QA engineers and technicians to quickly and easily analyze production parameters. SensoPRO can be linked to the acquisition software (SensoSCAN) so that measured data can be automatically transferred to SensoPRO software and analyzed. Once configured, a single-click both acquires and analyzes the measurement data.

A revolutionary innovation for optical profilometers which substantially improves its usability and simplifies the task of setting tolerances when creating a recipe, as well as deciding which are the key parameters to control the production line by comparing multiple sets of data which also can be compared through a graphical representation. Specially conceived for non-expert users who need traceable production control.

As multiple cores can now be fully utilized, a larger number of actions can be implemented in parallel, thus resulting in higher overall system performance. Easy to handle larger files, and/or larger multiple data sets.

This tool is a solution to create proprietary applications able to manage SensoPRO to analyze measurement acquired with Sensofar systems. Combining this solution with SensoSCAN SDK, we can accelerate QC processes by analyzing in parallel (on a separate computer) while acquiring new measurements. Command line is an easy way to call SensoPRO analysis software from other software.

Once the analysis is done, the results and the standard deviations for each parameter are shown on a table. If any tolerances are applied, these will be highlighted in the summary section.

The ISO 25178: Geometric Product Specifications (GPS) – Surface texture: areal standard is an International Organization for Standardization collection of international standards relating to the analysis of 3D areal surface texture. It is the first international standard taking into account the specification and measurement of 3D surface texture, and in particular defines 3D surface texture parameters and the associated specification operators.

Sensofar develops a Plugin to analyze surface texture (a.k.a. roughness) in accordance with the corresponding parameters defined by the ISO 25178.

Surface parameters are calculated according to ISO 25178:

    Height parameters (height values along the Z axis)
    Spatial parameters (spatial periodicity of the data)
    Hybrid parameters: (spatial shape of the data)
    Functional parameters (parameters calculated from the material ratio curve, surface into motifs, valleys and hills)

Several options for managing the output files from a successful analysis are provided to get a complete report showing pass or fail results.

Automatized custom analysis solutions

The SensoPRO data analysis application utilizes a module-based approach, where specific Plugin modules can be installed in the application.

This Plugin-based data analysis approach also provides a high degree of flexibility and specificity, making use of targeted algorithms that are optimized to the exact application needs. New modules can be easily customized to other industry needs.
Each Plugin consists of:

A SET OF
Processing settings

Comprising threshold settings, filters, operators, crop settings, etc., that can be applied to the measured data before the analysis. Each SensoPRO Plugin has its own suite of processing settings.

A SET OF
Parameters & Tolerances

Set of fitting parameters and, selection of tolerances for further analyses. Optimizes the results, e.g. according to known results, scaling, (manufacturing) conditions and tolerances.
