Dimensional Gauging Solutions


Precision non-contact dimensional measurement solutions designed to give you real-time part and process information without removing your part from the manufacturing line.

The Perceptron Advantage:

Helix sensors are the only sensors in the world to offer Intelligent IlluminationTM, a technological breakthrough that allows the user to choose the quantity, density and orientation of the laser lines... on an inspection point level... without ever moving the sensors. Helix sensors provide optimized images which serve as the foundation for over 50 different proprietary 3D measurement algorithms. Robustly and accurately measure surfaces and features on sheet metal, plastics, wood or composites.

Intelligent IlluminationTM also allows our Helix sensors to automatically generate full, 3D point cloud data. Gain a true 3-dimensional understanding of your part and process – in a single shot. 3D feature extraction and 3D point cloud generation from the same solution. That’s Value Innovation.


Flexible Manufacturing Support:

Today’s manufacturing processes must successfully support a multitude of options. High model mixes, complex product combinations, and unique short-run parts push traditional metrology systems to their limits. Helix sensors provide expansive measurement volumes (up to 100 times larger than alternative solutions) to accommodate today’s demanding manufacturing requirements. Successfully support high model mixes and easily incorporate new models and parts with Helix.


Total Product Life Cycle Support:

Configure your Helix solution to focus on 3D point cloud generation for valuable cloud-to-CAD comparisons during a product launch. Then, during full production, configure your Helix solution to focus on 3D feature extraction – but still maintain the ability to conduct special 3D point cloud studies.
