AT A.I.C. we have been generating extrusion profiles for years. However, they have not always been manufactured in rubber or plastic. Ever since we instrumented the out feed of a sander in a panel plant we have been charged with verifying the shape and size of products. In 1988 we began to manufacture the TUFF-SCAN tire inspection system. It is with this product we developed our expertise in driving and plotting the position of our sensors. When we put these two technologies together we developed the ACCU-SCAN System.

The ACCU-SCAN System is designed to generate full cross machine profiles online and provide real time data as to its shape and size as compared to a target that is stored in the computer. This target can be formulated in three ways. The computer has the ability to learn the profile by scanning known good reference samples. The computer can also be programmed with the recipe, or the computer can be programmed by Auto-Cad drawings.

The computer can literally hold millions of recipes in memory. Recipe changes can be made with a simple keystroke. Our system can read different extrusions on parallel lines simultaneously. Because all measurements are taken differentially we have the capacity to display the top and bottom readings independently.

Our site simulator is equipped with an ACCU-SCAN frame that can be reserved for testing and, verification of performance. At A.I.C. we do everything humanly possible to gain your trust and your business. Even when advance testing is done at our facilities we still provide a PROOF of PERFORMANCE guarantee with every product we sell!

 

The digital laser heads can update at a rate of 880 samples/second; or, an update every 0.011' of cross machine travel at 10'/second. The major beam diameter of the laser is approximately 0.010' with the centroid being 0.004-0.006' diameter. This rapid update rate results in a very high data density, allowing accurate reconstruction of the product's cross sectional profile.
