The scanControl 2800-25 profile scanner from Micro-Epsilon, generates digital 3D images of gear teeth. Therefore it can be used to measure the run-out characteristics of gear shafts with plug-in toothing and bevel gears with hypoid toothing. This laser line scanner with a 25mm measuring range digitizes the 3D structure of the tooth area. A measuring rate of up to 256,000 points per second is achieved. The scanner is aligned with the component in such a way that the laser line is perpendicular to the teeth of the component. By rotating the clamped component or gear wheel, the complete tooth area is mapped three-dimensionally.
