Quality control and tolerance verification of complex castings by means of optical methods

To remain competitive the foundries find it imperative that they can offer the most modern and precise documentation of the products they make.
For the foundries this project is essential to be able to reduce production costs and to remain competitive. Disa Industries wishes to strengthen its position as one of the world’s leading suppliers of foundry equipment. Zebicon will through the project strengthen its position as supplier of advanced optical measurement equipment to the Danish industry.
The results from the project will be used to reduce production costs at Vestas’ and Vald. Birn’s foundries by reducing the number of defective castings and by reducing the machining requirements of the finished castings.
When tolerances are improved it will allow engineers and designers to create structurally optimised, light constructions for the energy and transport sectors.
