6 © 2009 Z Corporation6 Reverse Engineering Capture digital models to modify in CAD Examples –Aftermarket parts –Packaging –Customize fit Benefits –Faster time to market –Improved ‘fit’ –Fewer defects

7 © 2009 Z Corporation7 Reverse Engineering: Visteon Tier 1 Global Supplier of Automotive Parts Business: Building up ‘cross systems,’ a merger of climate, lighting, interior and electronic components Challenge: Developing a complete understanding the of the environment in which the new system must be created Solution: “We scan interiors to establish set up shapes, and then figure out how to fit in electronic and mechanical components.”

8 © 2009 Z Corporation8 Inspection Validate that physical part meets requirements Examples –Identify defects in parts (first article inspection) –Identify defects in tooling –Diagnose production problems –Qualify new vendors Benefits –Find errors earlier When they are less expensive to fix –Diagnose problems faster Get production back on line

9 © 2009 Z Corporation9 Inspection: 3M Aycliff UK Manufacturing Plant Business: Two manufacturing lines making identical, multi-component respirator assemblies Challenge: One of the lines worked perfectly; one of the lines created defective respirators. Needed to quickly and cost effectively identify the source of the problem while maintaining production on the good line Solution: Quickly scanned suspect tools and components to verify against the good line. Compare results in Geomagic qualify. Identified the defective tool in less than 2 days

10 © 2009 Z Corporation10 Digital Analysis Virtual testing on prototype designs Examples –Finite Element Analysis (FEA) –Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Benefits –Test designs earlier in the process with less equipment and cost

11 © 2009 Z Corporation11 Digital Analysis: Matrix CAD Business: Scanning racecars to help teams reduce drag and increase car performance Challenge: Every stock car is custom made, but relatively small variances can cause significant performance differences. Teams need a fast, cost effective means to assess the as built performance of their cars Solution: Quickly scan a high performing car and a lower performing car and analyze the differences that increase drag and lower performance

12 © 2009 Z Corporation12 Archiving Convert legacy parts to digital data Examples –Replacing legacy 2D drawings with 3D data –Creating designs of parts with no engineering drawings Benefits –Reduce storage space –Shorter time to production

13 © 2009 Z Corporation13 Visualization Place physical parts into virtual settings Examples –Video games –Web marketing –Cultural preservation –Virtual training Benefits –Greater realism –Faster capture –Broader access

19 © 2009 Z Corporation19 Insert Company Name Scanning Application Review General Description –What is being scanned? Shape? Size? Material? Quantity –Where is it being scanned? Multiple locations? Are the parts stationary? –Who will be doing the scanning? Number of people? Level of expertise? –Current Methods Manually measuring? Laser, White light, probe?

20 © 2009 Z Corporation20 Insert Company Name Scanning Application Review Goal: Improve fit between existing boat hull and custom built deck / cabin Objectives: Reduce time to ‘mate’ components from 5 days to 2 Reduce cost of rework by 80% Improve customer perception of quality Objectives: Reduce time to ‘mate’ components from 5 days to 2 Reduce cost of rework by 80% Improve customer perception of quality Benefits: Every day of ‘mate time’ is worth 4 people x $800 per day Rework on average if $5k per boat Could result in 2 incremental sales per year or $600k Benefits: Every day of ‘mate time’ is worth 4 people x $800 per day Rework on average if $5k per boat Could result in 2 incremental sales per year or $600k Scanner Requirements Reducing Mate time means fit must be accurate to 1 mm over 5 m Scanner must be portable Scanner must require less than one day training for 5 personnel Scanner Requirements Reducing Mate time means fit must be accurate to 1 mm over 5 m Scanner must be portable Scanner must require less than one day training for 5 personnel

21 © 2009 Z Corporation21 Demonstration Ease of Use Versatility Portability Speed Accuracy Resolution

22 © 2009 Z Corporation22 Easy to Use Anyone can use a ZScanner –Simple set-up Apply targets Start scanning –See results in real time on monitor Avoid missing some areas Get real-time feedback on proper positioning of scanner –No external software to learn Get to an.stl directly from the ZScan software

23 © 2009 Z Corporation23 Ease of Use “You just hold the scanner and start scanning. The device has a red and a green light. At the correct distance from the part — about 1 foot — the green light stays on. So the device tells you where you should be, just one of the many ways it is intuitive.” -Laura Kent Product Designer, Silgan Plastics

24 © 2009 Z Corporation24 Versatility Different part sizes –Handheld objects to aircraft Different kinds of surface finishes –Plastics, metals, composites, painted surfaces –Translucent and shiny with some prep Scan under and around objects –Hard to reach places –Objects that cannot be moved

25 © 2009 Z Corporation25 Versatility “It’s the only way to scan from the interior of the car because it’s self-positioning.” -Daniel Vander Sluis Mechanical Architecture Lead Engineer, Visteon

26 © 2009 Z Corporation26 Portability Handheld Whole system fits into a suitcase- sized box Operates in indoor/outdoor environments

27 © 2009 Z Corporation27 Portability Whether you want to scan at a customer site or the middle of the Libyan dessert…. … the ZScanner is the only thing that can get you there

28 © 2009 Z Corporation28 Speed Typical scan technology requires many steps Data handoffs Frequently involves rework Set Up TimeScan Time Point Cloud Conversion Stitch Scans Rework? No Yes End

33 © 2009 Z Corporation33 How it Works: Auto-Positioning System Adhesive reflective dots mounted on scanned part in random fashion High-speed CCD cameras track points and use proprietary triangulation to determine part orientation in real time

34 © 2009 Z Corporation34 How it Works: Real-Time Surface Generation Automatic surface generation where both laser sweeps intersect on the part High-quality crosshair laser scans surface of part Real-time optimization loop between scanner and object

35 © 2009 Z Corporation35 Self Positioning: Digitize 3D Surfaces in Real Time External positioning system not required –ZScanners are part-referenced Can use external referencing if needed –Scan all sides of a part in one session No need to re-orient part (saves time) No need to stitch or register multiple data scans (saves LOTS of time) Output.stl surfaces in real time –No point clouds that need to be post- processed –You can see your scan progress on the screen
