3D scanning of compressor components

2023-11-25 A+ A A-

  A compressor is a driven fluid machinery that elevates low-pressure gas to high-pressure gas and is the heart of a refrigeration system. It sucks in low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas from the suction pipe, drives the piston to compress it through the operation of the motor, and then discharges high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas to the exhaust pipe, providing power for the refrigeration cycle. A certain compressor manufacturer needs to perform 3D scanning of compressor components.

Practical problems

  The workpiece has a large volume and weight, and there are many uneven details on the surface. The difficulty of collecting part detail data greatly increases, and customers have high requirements for the accuracy of part scanning. Traditional measurement methods are difficult to meet customer needs.

Holon solutions

  Holon engineers use handheld 3D scanners to scan large workpieces, using a wide range mode to maximize the use of cross laser, quickly capturing data, and instantly generating contour data. For various features of the workpiece, the corresponding scanning mode can be quickly switched, and even small features of the part can be perfectly captured with a maximum scanning accuracy of 0.01mm. The scanned 3D data can be used for 3D detection, reverse design, reverse modeling, etc. to improve work efficiency and meet customer needs.
