Precise measurements with magnetic dodecahedra

Dodecahedron: pentagons for more precise results from every angle

The new AESUB Dices enhance optical measuring processes and offer numerous advantages for precise measurements.

The faces of the dice are never symmetrical which allows for continuous measurements from five different angles. Eleven reference points are placed in a small space to precisely and reliably capture the part dimensions from all perspectives.

Since the AESUB Dices are magnetic, they are perfect for measurements involving metallic parts. Alternatively, the dice are also available equipped with a thread, thereby opening up more potential applications.

A set of AESUB Dices comprises of twelve dice in total plus the accompanying AESUB Dots. The self-adhesive, retroreflective reference points with a diameter of 6 mm are placed on the surfaces of the dice, meaning that no measurement points need to be placed onto the object to be scanned.

The AESUB Dices are polygons in the form of a dodecahedron and produced in black as standard, but are available in white or transparent on request. Naturally, the dice are also available without targets, enabling the user to stick on the AESUB Dots required for his or her application.

As close as possible to the part

Fast, flexible, efficient: the versatile rack for mini production runs and prototypes

The AESUB Rack is a modular measuring frame which, with just a few movements, can also be precisely positioned around large or complex parts for the purpose of optical measurements. Thanks to its innovative tensioning system, the individual components can be mounted quickly and easily around the part, thereby enabling near-contour alignment.

The rack is particularly suitable for mini production runs with 2-3 objects or for large, complex parts. Reference points can be placed directly onto the frame.

Thanks to its modular construction, the AESUB Rack can be modified and adapted to new requirements at any time. What is special about it is that the elements of the AESUB Rack can be shaped or bent to bring it closer to the part’s geometry of the component.

The measuring frame is perfect for pilot or small production runs and prototypes. Above all, it offers benefits in situations requiring ad hoc or precise measurements.

The spray for fine jewellery items

Nowadays, delicate pieces of jewellery such as the settings of diamond rings (engagement rings and wedding bands) can be designed efficiently thanks to state-of-the art 3D scanners. Owing to the high reflectivity and transparency, a scanning spray offering an extremely high level of detail is crucial for scanning such jewellery items.

It is for precisely these kinds of applications that the sublimating AESUB Diamond scanning spray has been developed. With a thin spray layer measuring significantly less than 2µm, it permits precise, accurate capture of the delicate, detailed pieces of jewellery. The very fine, homogenous spray has a comparatively short evaporation time, enabling efficient, rapid digitalisation.

AESUB Diamond is used where parts need to be scanned with the utmost attention to detail, for example in the jewellery industry where all the fine nuances and structures of the items need to be captured. AESUB Diamond is free from harmful titanium dioxide and – like all other sublimating AESUB scanning sprays – contains no pigments.
