Today domestic appliances such as a cooking ring, vacuum cleaner or microwave contain high-tech technology. From design through production, manufacturers require confirmation regarding the geometry of plastic and sheet metal parts as well as the attachment and connectivity of electrical and electronic power and control circuitry. Therefore, Nikon Metrology recommends using LK CMM equipped with LC60D, XC65D and LC15 laser scanners, or the XT H 225 X-ray and CT inspection system.
The drums of tumble driers and washing machines are rotating components that influence the quality and comfort level of white goods. To efficiently digitize the drums’ freeform surfaces and geometric features, white good manufacturers today more and more tend to choose for productive 3D laser scanning.
