ShaPix Surface Detective
Today's precision manufacturing requires tighter and tighter tolerances. Manufacturers — held responsible for meeting strict quality standards — need metrology tools that confirm their quality with the highest levels of accuracy and repeatability. In addition, they need to be able to quickly analyze dimensional data and digitally communicate the results to customers, suppliers, vendors and more.
Coherix, Inc. provides manufacturers with the newest generation of revolutionary, 3 Dimensional (3D), high-definition metrology and defect detection systems available.
Using patented holographic imaging techniques, ShaPix Surface Detective generates high-resolution, 3D images of a measured surface. This digital holographic system provides immediately actionable color-graphic visual information for process control in precision machining and manufacturing.
ShaPix Surface Detective's comprehensive and accurate imaging capabilities quickly and easily analyze complex parts such as these transmission valve bodies, replacing time consuming and potentially inaccurate manual approaches.
The solution is the digital hologram, invented at The University of Michigan, and commercialized by Coherix. Coherix combines digital holography with innovations in application development to transform the way precision parts are manufactured in the transportation industry.
ShaPix Surface Detective provides full surface visualization uncovering shape characteristics that cause quality spills, higher scrap rates, poor assembly fits, and expensive warranty repairs.
