eddyrobot
Model: eddyrobot
Mobile, modular semi-automatic sample test unit with a 6-axis robot for eddy-current crack and grinder-burn testing and optional optical surface inspection.
About the eddyrobot
The eddyrobot is ibg's modular unit for semi-automatic sample testing. A high-precision 6-axis robot (repeatability within ±5 µm, according to ibg) guides the part against an eddyvisor C with a differential crack test probe, and can also use ibg's Optical Reflection Technology (ORS) for surface inspection.
Exchangeable drive units cover rollers, rings, shafts, wheel-hub components and free-form parts, and a probe station stores up to four eddy-current probes that the robot changes automatically per part type. ibg positions the unit for first-part checks after a line reset, sampling inspection during production and as a replacement for Nital etching; whether it can replace Nital etching for a specific part must be validated against that part's reference results.
- Testing Approaches: manual loading / automatic testing;
- ibg Test Instrument eddyvisor C: Equipped with a differential crack test probe, ensuring precise and reliable testing.
- High-Precision 6-Axis Robot: Achieve repeatability within ±5 microns for consistent results.
- Selection of exchangeable drive units for a wide range of part families: including roller, rings, shaft, wheel hub components, freeform;
- Flexible Probe Station: Stores up to four ET probes, automatic probe change by the robot (magnetic tool holder) based on part-type specific programming.
- Beckhoff PLC-PC and 15.6" Touch Screen: Advanced control and user interface for seamless operation.
- Optional QR-Code Reader: Streamline production order management for increased efficiency.
- Safety Features: Includes an electro-mechanical lock and emergency stop for operator safety.
- Mobility: Move the unit effortlessly with 100 mm rubber wheels (two lockable), a large handle, and rugged corner protection. It easily fits through standard doors (1,213 x 804 x 1,856 mm l x w x h).
Where the eddyrobot is used
- First-part inspection after production-line reset
- Sampling inspection during production
- Alternative to Nital etching for grinder-burn checks (validated per part)
