Studies and researches on the measurement and 3D integrated control of complex components from automotive industry by laser scanning

The creativity of human being correlated with the requirements of permanent increase of the living standard, constitutes the basis of society development. Progressive replacement of traditional tools with intelligent technological equipment becoming more complex is one of the most important aspects of the development of production processes in all industrial fields. Intelligent measurement and integrated dimensional control are needed to ensure the quality of the product or industrial manufacturing process, whatever the field. Because the automotive industry is one of the most important industries in the world, manufacturing systems engineering, control methods and techniques, and assurance of quality, present particular interest by the economic results, in particular the reduction of working time and production costs. In a perfect world or in an integrated production environment, the new 3D measurement systems, by providing the quality control integrated into the production line would be able to measure all the necessary parameters in a single step, without errors and render the results in the same way to the manufacturing networks with computers, in formats useful for CNC machines control and process management.
