A well-known aircraft manufacturer needs to purchase a set of 3D scanning equipment to scan aircraft tires and wheel hub inspections for later aircraft wheel measurement, tire reverse repair, product development and design, etc., to save costs and time and improve the company's competitiveness.
Practical problems
Aircraft tires and hubs are important components of the aircraft as a whole. The designs of tires and hubs are mostly complex in structure. The hubs are highly matched with tires and aircraft axles, and the hub holes require high precision.
Aircraft tire material. The black wheel hub material is highly reflective, and ordinary 3D scanners cannot scan directly. The data can only be obtained after powder spraying. There are high requirements on the tools and technology used in 3D inspection. Recently, a manufacturer specializing in the production of aircraft companies found Hualang, hoping that our company can recommend suitable 3D scanning solutions and purchase equipment.
Scanning objects: aircraft tires, wheels
Inspection requirements: Measure the size of automobile wheel hub, equipment hole position, tire wall thickness and overall model
Recommended solution: A22 laser handheld 3D scanner + 3D inspection software
STL data for partial scanning of aircraft tires
Holon solutions
Detection steps
Step 1
Use A22 laser handheld 3D scanner to scan the hub of the aircraft (no need to spray powder) to obtain full-scale 3D scan data. The operation is simple, the scanning speed is fast, only 10 minutes (in the case of high reflection on the surface of the car wheel), and the data will be displayed on the PC side in real time during the scanning process.

Step 2
Import the scanned 3D data into our independent research and development 3D inspection software, mark the points to be measured, and then automatically generate the corresponding measurement data.

Summary
Traditional aircraft tire scanning wheel detection uses three-coordinate and traditional manual measurement, but these methods inevitably have different degrees of problems.
The first is that the equipment is expensive, and most of the workpiece inspections are in the on-site environment and it is impossible to measure in the laboratory environment;
The second is that the traditional volume is normal and the efficiency is low, users need to invest a lot of time to obtain scan data, wasting too much human and material resources;
According to user needs, Hualang 3D recommends a handheld laser 3D scanner, which has both scanning efficiency and flexibility. It does not need to be sprayed during scanning, is not restricted by the particularity of the environment and samples, and has high data accuracy, which is especially suitable for aircraft wheel inspection and measurement. And tire reverse repair, as well as product development and design.
This solution satisfies the customer's requirements well and has the following advantages:
1. A22 has good portability, and the weight of the host is only 0.87KG;
2. The operation is convenient and simple, you can learn without professional background, and master the scanning skills;
3. It is not restricted by the measured object, and can obtain full-size three-dimensional scan data without spraying powder;
4. It has a wide range of applications and can be used for batch testing
5. Non-contact measurement, fast and accurate;
