HeiDetect Wheel Robot

Latest X-ray technology for maximum reliability

HeiDetect Wheel Robot is a fully automatic wheel test facility and, through the integration of the ISAR image evaluation software and the XEye detector developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits, allows almost pseudo error-free evaluation with stable image quality. The efficient processing of images allows casting errors such as shrink holes, pores, cavities and foreign matter in the range of 3% of the radiographed wall thickness to be detected and classified. Large areas of oxide can be detected from a size of 1% of the wall thickness. Further benefits are offered by the automatic wheel detection and by incorporating barcodes. This enables the alignment of the wheels to be specified and monitor the test results. The HeiDetect Wheel Robot wheel test facility from HEITEC meets the latest requirements for the group of wheels and handles wheel sizes from 13”-24”. The ISAR evaluation software offers an ergonomic Windows-based graphic user interface via which the test parameters can be set specifically for customers. Key data can be transmitted via an existing operating data acquisition system. Specially prepared test results are transmitted to production in real-time, thereby enabling trend analysis and continuous product quality optimization, aiming to minimize scrapping.
