ZEISS BOSELLO WRE thunder
Inspecting wheels at full speed
Enabling rapid inspection of light alloy wheels within the production cycle, ZEISS BOSELLO WRE thunder is a high-speed, in-line system designed for 2D X-ray defect detection. The system ensures a reliable inspection of all produced wheels, accurately identifying and evaluating critical defects in accordance with specified requirements.
2D Inline Inspection of light alloy wheels
ZEISS Bosello WRE thunder is the 2D X-ray solution for identifying defects reliably and quickly on the production line. The system checks a wide range of wheel models and detects deviations from predefined norms and specifications.
Fast scanning for high throughput
The pass-through concept of the system allows fast exchange of the wheels in less than 2.5 seconds. With the clever coordination of the four doors – two on the inside and two on the outside – the X-ray source can run continuously. This allows to start inspecting immediately and idle time is kept at a minimum. Even if different wheels need to be processed, the Automatic Wheel Identifier system recognizes the model, loads the corresponding test program and finds the right alignment for the scan process without disturbing the cycle of production.
Perfect integration in the production environment
ZEISS BOSELLO WRE thunder is characterized by its robust and durable construction and is therefore perfectly suited for hard use in harsh production environments. Its compact design with a footprint of only 5.8 m², ensures easy placement and integration into existing production lines. Moreover, it offers customizable features such as interface signals for seamless connection with an existing conveyor line, and a bespoke rejection unit of defect parts to meet your specific requirements.
Automated evaluation for reliable inspections
The easy-to-use software with quick image acquisition allows for fully automated 2D X-ray inspection and evaluation in compliance with ASTM standards. Non-conforming defects are reliably detected and classified thanks to the in-house FARIS software, so that imperfect parts are automatically ejected from the production line. At the same time, all information about the inspected castings is documented in one database, which ensures complete traceability in production.
ZEISS BOSELLO WRE thunder is designed for continuous use in the production cycle and enables reliable and automated inspection of 100% of all wheels produced. Optimally synchronized components ensure fast and safe transport of the rims, reduce vibrations and achieve high accuracy with short scanning times.
Optimized components guarantee high system stability
