GeoSpin is a flexible inspection system that is configured with two, four or eight inspection probes and features AccuScan data acquisition software which is a full-featured Windows application specifically designed for the collection and analysis of circular geometry data. Circular geometry is critical in the design of certain types of machines and mechanical assemblies, such as aircraft engines, industrial gas turbines and steam turbines.

AccuScan^TM features IntelliProbe^TM technology, software algorithms designed to address problems common with circular geometry inspection, such as profile distortion due to part misalignment. This “intelligent probing” corrects for part off-centring errors of up to 2% of the part radius with negligible error. It also allows for true normal-to-axis evaluation of surface roundness. Geometrical data measured includes Roundness, Diametral Runout, Eccentricity, Flatness, Parallelism, Planar Runout and angle.

Rotor Assembly (Optional)

IntelliStack™ Advanced Stacking software for predictive modelling of multi-part rotor assemblies can significantly improve rotor assemblies by iteratively calculating each part’s optimal position with respect to its neighbours and its effect on overall rotor quality.

     Key Features:

• Build for minimum Runout or Unbalance
• Compatible with all the AccuScan™ inspection systems
• Re-usable Stacking Templates
• Sub-assembly stacking, partial stacking, known or locked-position stacking

     Benefits:

• Significantly improve rotor assemblies rotor quality
• Reduced assembly time
• Avoidance of costly rotor teardowns
• Lower runout and unbalance reduces the amount of balance correction required
• Minimise internal bending in a rotor
• Reduces engine vibration
• Check on joint quality
• Check on component quality

Measurement Capacity:

• Maximum measurement volume up to Ø1,600 mm x 2,400 mm
• Maximum load capacity up to 1,500 kgs
