LMI Technologies has announced the release of the Gocator Volume Checker, which is a 3D volume gauging solution that is designed for inspecting cylinder heads and piston bowls in small to medium-sized internal combustion engines. The system features a Gocator 3210 3D snapshot sensor with custom built-in measurement tools to calculate the volume of automotive parts. The Gocator 3210 features a 2 MPixel stereo camera and achieves 3D snapshot scans at 35 μm. It also features a 100 x 154 mm field of view (FOV) for picking multiple features at once.

In addition, the Gocator Volume Checker uses blue LED structured light to take a single snapshot scan and deliver measurement results at ± 0.04cm3 accuracy. This measurement occurs in a cycle time of less than 5 seconds––even on combustion chambers and pistons with highly-reflective surfaces, according to LMI.
